    The driveway to the house was very narrow. we had a twelve passenger van that barely made it.. WE also felt that we had to clean up the house like we got it and we do pay a cleaning fee to cover that. we had to wash and put all the dishes away and not leave it in the dishwasher..throw all the rubbish away.. not enough rubbish bags..

    Beautiful house with stunning views

    Access and off street parking was difficult for a large group. I understand the neighbours concerns but it put us on edge a little with the restrictions around parking & noise. Not because we were there to party but we were a large family group and wanted to have a fun, relaxing weekend together.

    Good location, views, layout and facilities.

    Basement heating affected the upstairs heating making it too hot upstairs during the night. The cobwebs on the ceiling and the bugs in the light fittings. Plugs for sinks didn't fit making washing dishes difficult.

    The size was perfect for our group of friends. The view was amazing. A serviceman arrived promptly to sort out the heating which was greatly appreciated.

    Whilst we were very happy to adhere to house rules re no noise after 9pm it's a pity the neighbours didn't do the same. House next door played intrusive music till 1am on Saturday morning and 2am on Sunday morning.

    Fantastic place for family gathering, well equipped, loads of space.

    Outside gardens need to be spruced up to make property more appealing. House needs a wash especially around the outside windows where insects are nesting etc.

    Fantastic view and location. Loved split living where we all had our own space. Clean, tidy and relaxing. Hope to return.

    This has been a beautiful property, but sadly it’s showing it’s age looking unloved in some areas. Brocken lights, dirty lights, leaking ceiling, pool not working, they did refund us $150 for the pool not working, the bed in main bedroom is small and uncomfortable 🥴 (Queen, and too soft, but others may like this) the rest of the beds were great. For the money you pay per night you don’t expect to see these things.

    Amazing views. Nice and warm, well equipped kitchen and great social spaces. It is a great space for a family group, and if we'd brought kids along it would have been really great for them as well.

    Hot tub kept dropping temperature (circulation pump broken), but a serviceman did come out and fix it. Needs new dryer, existing one is very outdated. An inside drying rack would have been useful.

    Great layout for our family holiday, 7 bedrooms and 5 bathrooms.

    The ceiling leaked in a few of the rooms. One leak was right above the bed. Woke up saturated and cold. We found a few other leaks in the ceiling in the house too. I emailed the property manager to let them know as they might not know as it was a very rainy night. It has been 24hrs and I've had no response. I'm not a negative person but since I've had no response I'm leaving this review.

    Heaps of room for a big group. Excellent kitchen with everything you need. Heating was great. Modern facilities. Great parking Loved all the bathrooms
