good house for large family
Good house but it needs a bit of TLC, access is also a problem with sandy gravel all round. I twisted my ankle stepping off the rear deck onto uneven pavers. That should be sorted

Excellent summer escape
This property was exactly what we needed for a week away from the city. Plenty of room for our family and pet dog. Everyone enjoyed the games room with pool table and table tennis setup in the shed. There was even enough room for friends to visit us for the weekend. Loved our stay and are already discussing going back next year.

Affordable accommodation that's only a short walk from the beach
Comfortable accommodation for families. Plenty of room to find your own space. Can accomodate 6 well, but only 8 if the extra 2 are small children, as the fourth bedroom can only be accessed via the third bedroom. The house is quite dated but the kitchen is relatively new. The only aircon unit is in the upstairs open plan living/lounge/kitchen area. This worked fine for most days, but we had 2 days above 35C and it was then uncomfortable everywhere else in the house, e.g. bedrooms and downstairs. That being said, we will certainly be considering a return visit, just not right in the middle of summer.

Fun family vacation
We just stayed 5 nights with 4 teenagers and 2 adults. We all loved the pool table, table tennis table, dart board and bikes. They also had boardgames cards and wifi. It was great being able to take our dog too. The house was a bit rustic but clean. Kitchen has been upgraded. When we arrived we found the owners had supplied us with bread, milk, butter, orange juice and chocolates. The bathrooms had fresh boxes dove soap which was a nice touch. We texted the owner with a question furing our stay and she rang straight away. We all loved our stay, would recommend staying there, especially with kids. Thank you.

Everything was fantastic! Christine and Ross are marvellous hosts, we had everything we needed at the property and much more. If we could give 10 stars for our stay we would! House is big enough for two families to hang out together or have their own space.

Homely vacation with plenty to do
Would absolutely stay here again, the house has a very homely feel as soon as you walk through the door. Clean, spacious, quite neighbourhood, beautiful views from the balcony and plenty of activities to do for kids and adults alike, 8ball, table tennis, bike ride as well as being only a few streets from the beach and short drive to the Main Street. Thank you Christine and Ross for allowing us to stay and for the little goodies, we will definitely be back.
