Très grande villa confortable . On se croirait à la maison avec sa grande cuisine toute équipée . Le plus : le jacuzzi et le grand jardin avec la pétanque !
Tout est réuni pour passer plusieurs jours et de bons moments en famille ou avec des amis . Et l’hôte est très réactif . Je recommande fortement .

The villa suited us beautifully. We were really impressed with a bathroom in each bedroom which allowed exceptional privacy for each of the couples. So important and valued by each of us.

Was very homely and comfy with good facilities fairly close to town.
Maybe additional toilet rolls
Would have liked to have been able to use spa a bit later in the evening but did enjoy having one available.

What a fabulous cottage with lots of history to add to the charm. Perfect for our girls night away. Next time we will stay 2 nights.
Beds were very comfortable and we could bring our wee dogs.
Not much to not like. The only trouble we had was tripping on the kitchen table legs that are at an awkward angle but I think that was also contributed by user error.

Big spacious home with a lot of character. exceptionally clean and everything you can think of in the home.The spa was an added bonus super clean and already turned on at the right temperature.
No braai facility available, which was a bummer as most of our meals were planned to use the braai.

The communal spaces were great. Plenty of room for four couples. Good having little bathrooms in all bedrooms. Quiet location. Unfortunately didn’t have time for a spa
Shower and toilet space weren’t well ventilated and there seemed to be a bit of a smell coming from the drain. Windows didn’t open. Bit of flooding in the kitchen during heavy rain.

Very cosy. Very warm. Great beds. Modern conveniences.
Showerheads were the only awkward feature - pretty much flawless otherwise 👍🏼

We arrived to a very warm house (heating had been turned on) and complimentary drinks which was a nice touch. The villa was very comfortable, clean and the kitchen well stocked with appliances etc We would definitely recommend this accommodation.

Great having door code to enter. Great communication and very easy instructions. Very generous leaving drinks in fridge!
Wonderful house
I know there are 5 toilets but an extra roll of loo paper in each toilet would have been good

5 double rooms all with ensuite
bathrooms could do with an upgrade

Spacious house with beautiful garden to relax in.
Easy access and close to town.
Hosts were very accommodating and left a wee welcome gift, which was a lovely touch.
The bathrooms are a bit dated and could do with a spruce up. However, they were functional and having one in each room was perfect for a large group.

We loved Driftwood Villa. It was spotlessly clean, very comfortable, and extremely well equipped. We especially enjoyed the spa, particularly the children. The outside area was lovely but unfortunately the weather wasn’t good enough to sit out whilst we were there. Only a few minutes walk from a supermarket and the house was equipped with gifts to start us off. We enjoyed the bottle of wine, thank you.
There was nothing to dislike.

Spacious and beautifully presented. Plenty of parking and supermarket complex is only a 5 minute walk away. Has a spa pool with a view of the mountains which was fantastic. Nice and warm even in the middle of winter.
Not really walkable to town but for us it wasn’t a problem.

A great place for a group of friends to stay. It is a beautiful villa….. very spacious, lovely big living area, well equipped kitchen, five bedrooms each with an ensuite( brilliant asset), clean, warm, good sized outdoor area, lovely spa pool, off street private parking. We couldn’t speak highly enough of the property.
Nothing at all.
8.0
big enough for extended family, safe outside space, plenty of room. good location.
would’ve been great to have vacuum cleaner, even tho no shoes inside small children still bring stuff inside.
also a current nz phone number would’ve been more helpful!

Loved the bathrooms in the rooms
Bbq was dirty and hardly any gas, upsetting because we had meat already for it and had to cook in the oven
