Nice quiet getaway

Nice and clean. Just close enough to town to walk, and just far away enough from town to have peace and quiet.

Simply elegant

What a beautiful and well appointed house. The house was incredibly clean and well presented. Sarah was a wonderful host. The check in and check out procedure was a breeze. Words truly can’t explain how beautiful the house was. Looking forward to stay here again.

Great house, lovely stay

We stayed two nights in this lovely home. It is well appointed, modern and tastefully decorated. All rooms were spotlessly clean and we were provided with everything we needed (e.g., kitchen goods, toiletries). We used both the washing machine and dryer which worked well. We did have difficulty accessing free-to-air TV. A great place, we'd definitely recommend it to others.
