The house despite constant airing smells mouldy and musty Probably from bedding and lounge . Great location. As weather was warm we could leave all windows and doors open and use fans but smell remains .

House was basic but comfortable clean and very well located. However the lovely trees surrounding the house are home to a large colony of flying foxes. These are very loud, very smelly and poo prolifically on cars and anything outside. The smell permiates the house.

Gumtree Cottage

Not flash but all basic items to have a comfortable stay. Need to Pre plan for entering and exiting house with luggage as there are a lot of stairs. House needs a more thorough clean before guest arrive i.e. cobwebs, dust, barbeque, pest control for ants. No ceiling fans for stove or bathroom.
