Outstanding accommodation

The house is very comfortable, spacious, clean and tidy. We had everything we needed for our week long stay. The bedrooms are very large and beds really comfortable. The large tv in all of the bedrooms was a treat.

The house was fabulous and had everything you would possibly need. It was very clean and there was excellent communication with the Owner.Unfortunately, as we were at the racetrack from 7am and returning around 6pm, we didn't have time to enjoy having a bbq by the river (it looked beautiful & well set up !)The only down side was the noise from trucks on the main road through the night... BUT we would definitely stay again.

Family holiday

beautiful and clean, the lovely grassed area along the river is very relaxing. however, if you're a light sleeper, take earplugs, as it can get quite noisy at night with the trucks. the Pub 200 meters down the road does lovely meals. will try to return for another holiday

House was amazing! Very clean and spacious. Loved the little extra touches like shampoo/conditioner/body wash. Cupboards and draws full of things you wouldnt think to bring ie gladwrap/alfoil. Great comunication from Jenny. Pub just a 5 minute walk away for meals etc. Will definitely look at booking this property again.

Everything you need for a great stay!

The house was absolutely fantastic! Clean, modern & everything you need for a great break. Definitely recommend hiring cooks hut too. Having the kitchen & bathroom facilities at the river bank is awesome, especially because there are quite a few steps up to the house. We would definitely recommend this property & would go back ourselves. Communication with the host was fantastic too!

Girls getaway

Lovely home, thoughtful decor and amenities. Comfortable beds throughout. Everything we needed was at the home. Access to river via steps worth the effort for the view. Shutters on front windows appreciated as road noise was quite loud. Perfect layout for our weekend away.
