House was great clean and a secure yard for dogs. It was a little bit cold in the house. The heating was ok. We had a great stay and would stay again .

Overall very well presented, property has just had renovations ( as told by Chris the owner ) we enjoyed our stay.

Nice place, good location, clean

We have previously stayed at the property late December a couple years ago and were quite happy with our stay at that time. Unfortunately this was not the case this stay and the property doesn’t seem to have received any love since that time, and needs some attention and maintenance to be up to an air bnb stay standard. It was extremely strong mould and musk smelling, which was very off-putting during the stay. The kitchen, draws, cupboards, cooking supplies and fridge were dirty and not up to standard. Probably the worse were the mosquito infestation at night. It appeared no one had been through to open up the house recently and that there wasn’t adequate outside screens on the bedroom wall vents which allowed multiple mosquitoes inside the house, in which us and our young children got bitten alive overnight and had to buy our own spray and repellent system. I was disappointed to read very similar reviews earlier in the year, in which the owner wrote would attend to the mould smell and cleaning concerns, but it was obvious nothing had been done since, which left for an unenjoyable stay for our young family over this time. We won’t be staying in this property again for this reason.

Whilst I understand that the house is old and a bit run down, for the money we paid including a cleaning fee the least you can expect is for it to be clean. There is a very strong dusty/musty smell ( reminded us of the smell in Mumbai) throughout and the carpets are badly stained. There was furry mould in all the kitchen drawers and the cooking utensils were dirty with old food and mould. The corners of the rooms had dead bugs on the floors and skirting boards were filthy. The fridge was dirty with spills still on the shelves. The window sills were very dirty and covered in bugs. The blinds were dirty. Quite a few other little things also spoilt our stay eg. clocks don't work, TV remote didn't work ( we bought new batteries ourselves but it still didn't work) a couple of light switches in the lounge room don't work, one was taped off but the other one gave off a spark when my daughter switched it on. There was only a few sheets of paper and half a firelighter to start the fire so after that we had to source some more paper and kindling ourselves and we have stocked it up for the next people who arrive. The toilet is located in a lean-to out the back so make sure you wear shoes for any late night visits cos the floors were covered in bugs. I have photos of the dirt and mould but am unable to upload them on this page. A lot more effort needs to be put into cleaning if you are going to charge people to stay at your home, this was our first family holiday in a long time and sadly the state of this home really disappointed us and obviously we wont be back :(

Chris the owner is fantastic to deal with, cannot wait to be able to stay at this property!

It was a good property to stay in for a short time it was comfortable and the right gear in it the kitchen was a good set up every thing was good great location the only thing that was needed was opening up before we got there to air it out a bit the musky smell when you first walked in was a bit strong but otherwise it was good and I would stay there again anytime so thanks Chris it was good overall

Central location in town close beach
