Lovely Property - Quiet Location
Overall Redwood is a lovely quiet property and very comfortable. The only issue was the lack of soap. No soap for showers or hand basins so make sure to bring your own. Considering the charge for 2 nights, we were wondering why no soap was supplied....as other guests previously noted.
The beds are comfortable and the bathrooms spacious and light.
The livingroom has great couches for relaxing on and plenty of natural light pouring in.
The kitchen is reasonably well stocked with crockery and cutlery, but don't expect to find the basics, tea, coffee etc that many other rental properties supply.
The outside area is nice to sit in and enjoy.
Thanks so much,
The Smiths:)

Great location, great size, slightly grubby
Spent a weekend here with friends. Great location, great size, great layout but the property could use a deep clean. Cream carpets are spitted with spills and marks, dust and debris on window sills in main bedroom, daddy long leg spiders throughout the place and there wasn’t enough handsoap. Main bathroom needed to be refilled and there wasn’t any at all in the other bathroom. Not a big deal, but would be nice to wash your hands properly after travelling, toileting etc.
