It has two living areas, ensuring there is enough space for everyone to relax and chill out. The downstairs living area has been set up for children with a cupboard full of games and toys, and Arcade Machine. whilst the upstairs living area is more for the big kids, with a bar area and a large tv for the armchair sports lovers.

We had such a great 5 nights. The kids barely left the pool but did go out kayaking once and enjoyed that too. The house is large enough that you can get away from each other as there are two living rooms. We ate upstairs on the deck using the bbq and looking out at all the lovely greenery. We did visit two beaches but could easily have stayed at the house with the pool! The house is not so done up that you feel nervous having your kids there but it is just the right amount of space and plenty of facilities to keep all ages busy or relaxed, depending on what you want. We did a big shop before leaving Sydney so the local shops were fine for any last minute top ups. I'm still thinking about floating in the pool - it was a really easy, fun family holiday.

Our extended family visited The Place for my Dad's 70th birthday. The house worked well for our ten guests and it was great that our dog Rex, jokingly Dad's 'favourite' member of the famly was welcome as well! The pool and proximity to the lake provided additional fun memories for our weekend stay.
