Relaxing, restorative, simply amazing!!
Vanessa made our stay extra special with her excellent communication. The property was spotless and had everything we could possibly need for our getaway. The location was quiet and had easy access to the local shops. We cannot wait to come back again in summer to enjoy the beautiful beaches.. thanks again Vanessa for making our weekend away super easy and enjoyable.

Great get away for a small family. Easy access to shops near by and with a lake view less 3 minutes
Had a great quality time with my wife and mum. All the necessity stuff available in the household. Near future if the owner can install Internet which the guests can have access to, will see this property doing even better.
Overall excellent place to have getaway from all the hustle and bustle
