Rick, Jo and the team that look after this property have done a good job to keep everything in ship-shape and ensuring that all holiday makers that stay here are comfortable and well looked after.
There's a lot of stuff included with the stay including a pool table, table tennis, mountain bikes, spa pool, bbq etc. Not only that, the house is conveniently located near a countdown (about a 5min drive) where you can do your shopping top ups. Would love to have stayed longer if our schedules allowed to do so.

If we could, we would give this 6 out of 5 stars. A fabulous place to visit: very comfortable and well appointed, with great outdoor spaces and all sorts of thoughtful touches. Interactions with owners could not have been any nicer.
