Incredible property with amazing swimming pool and tennis court - and unique sculptures
Outstanding and unique. The artworks throughout are fabulous. Thoughtful addition to have piles of pool towels in a basket - very handy. A few things went wrong / broke essentially due to the age of the property. But the manager's responsiveness was EXCELLENT.

Beautiful place but needs a thorough clean!
Caldermeade is a beautiful house, very spacious, gorgeous artwork and fabulous artwork! However the house was very dirty, it waa clear that perhaps people had been staying during lockdown - there was so much crap left in the pantry and freezer, everything was dusty, I don’t know when the last time it had been vacuumed, the BBQ was filthy, for the price I would have expected better and especially given COVID. We also couldn’t use the pool or spa as the heating was not working and we were only advised of this 2 hours before arriving, this was disappointing as this was one of the reasons we picked the place. Over all it was a lovely stay and the agents were lovely also but I would expect better maintenance.

Great beach house with eclectic taste in artwork.
A few minor maintenance would be great. People using the bungalow should be told where the main switch is for electricity. Overall we had a great stay and loved all the different balconies for sitting outside, weather permitting.

Best Location, best house in the street - heated pool and tennis court!!!
What a house...amazing location, and the house had so much character. Only house perhaps with more books than what i own :) 2 x fireplaces to enjoy as the temperature fell. Heaters in all the rooms. 2 x BBQ to host guests. Kids loved the heated pool, roasting marshmallows in the fire pit and of course enjoying tennis ... only 10 mins walk to Spray Point which was beautiful at sunset. Mins away from the beaches of Sorrento, Rye and Portsea made it a very central location. The only criticism i have was that i wasn't made aware when i booked that i would be charged a booking fee by HomeAway - usually there is no charge to the guest. Any fee is paid by the home owner/listing agent. However that did not take away from amazing 6 nights and 7 days we spent. The listing agent were brilliant to deal with - they allowed us to check in early and leave late so we could make the most of it. Will definitely be back! KS
