Beautiful home away from home

Dear Angela,Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful home. The house was very clean, even by my mum's standards, and she is very hard to impress. Everything was as advertised, apart from being unable to watch free-to-air TV in the bedroom. But this is a very minor problem as we were not really there to watch TV. I would highly recommend this property to anyone after a beautiful, clean house and an incredible view of the lake.Thank you!Kind regards,Ana

4 Days Off!

For us, this trip was awesome. 4 days of doing nothing but catching up with each other. The place had a neat little view of the lake, the road and the hotel across the street. Always something to watch and see. Our dog had a blast too. Loved watching people and cyclists. We had a few great sunsets and the break was just what we needed.

Great location, excellent views

This was a great spot, just across the road from the lake. It is elevated so you get great views of the lake. You can walk into town - I think it is about 2 km and a very pleasant walk along the lakefront. We were delighted to be able to bring our dog - you must arrange this beforehand and there is a size limit but the owner was very amenable to this. The apartment was very clean and spacious and the kitchen well-stocked with everything you need. I would highly recommend.

Sparkling apartment with lovely ambience and view

We were thoroughly amazed by the beautiful apartment, quiet yet opposite the lake with the main road below. The garden surrounds and being on a rise above the lake made it feel very private. The apartment had absolutely everything you could wish for.

Unfortunately not quite what is advertised

Location is great, and property is generally pretty tidy. Unfortunately two of the key selling points for us were not as advertised. There is no gas fire (despite the listing saying there is) which would have been nice on a cold winter night. The “hot tub” is a plastic pool that was empty and filthy, so not able to be used. It would be good if an email explaining how to locate the property was sent prior to the stay, as it is in a complex and very hard to find (especially in the dark)
