Great property to stay at, especially for families! Clean and tidy with plenty of utensils & crockery etc in the kitchen. Host is very responsive, check in was easy and smooth. Parking near by wasn’t as bad as we expected!

A beautiful period home in a fantastic location. 4 bedroom, 2 bathroom, large dining table to seat 8 people and large table outside which is great in the morning sun. Everything you need in the kitchen along with a washing machine and dryer tucked away if you are staying a bit longer. Unfortunately there is no parking at the property. While eyeing off backing the car up to the back fence to unload the car we were lucky enough to spot the gentleman leaving the property next door who was kind enough to let us park there for the weekend. The suggested Cafe Lekker was really nice for breakfast and a walkable distance. The only issue I had which I’ve experienced many times before booking through Wotif (not just this property) is the use of Vrbo for messaging. I can never access it which makes communication a little harder. Overall a beautiful property in a great location for up 8 people which added to our fantastic weekend away

The house was a great size a mixture of old world charm and modern amenities in the living kitchen and bathrooms. Very clean and plenty of good quality linen. The central location made it easy to walk to cafes, restaurants and shopping, which was great with young children. Our host always responded quickly and was very helpful. Would totally recommend this house for a getaway. We certainly could have stayed longer.
