Host was super friendly, she waited for me since it was raining. The unit was value for money. Amazing room, peaceful and comfy. Very clean and had a welcome kit. Lighting was just perfect.

    Very well equipped for families. Many bedding options and toys galore. The house was well presented and the kitchen was well equipped. There were some staples left in the fridge and pantry for use. The outdoor area was fabulous with a heated pool that the kids couldn’t stay out of. For us location was fabulous as close proximity to the kids school and Limberlost nursery and tennis courts.
