Oasis in the country

My 6 friends and I had a lovely stay. The house is exactly as mentioned in the listing. The beds were very comfortable. Well equipt kitchen and a bbq if you wanted to make your own meals. The house was very comfortable with space to spread out between the main lounge room and the theater room as well as the dinning area and outside table by the pool which was amazing on some very warm days. We will definitely be back

Feels like home

The place is newly built and is very pretty. Very spacious and sufficient for a big group. Felt like home when we arrived. Beds are comfortable. Compliances are well stocked. There is a pool at the back that is only available during the warmer months. Would have been better if we didn’t need to drive to Bright to collect and drop off the keys. Also, one of the requirements was to put dishes back after washing before checkout. Seemed a bit rush for those who have breakfast before checkout.

Lovely property. Clean with all convenience's one requires. It would have been handy to have the access key on site rather than having to travel to and from the real estate agent.

Comfortable stay in a nice, modern home.

Overall the house was really nice. Comfortable, spacious, mostly clean. Walls and skirting boards need a wipe over. We were told the pool would be ready to swim in but it needed a clean and had lots of leaves and bugs, despite the filter being turned on. Beds were comfortable. Lovely to sit by the fireplace each night. Only big dogs would be secure in the yard. Dogs under 5kg would squeeze through the bars in the fence. A lockbox at the property would be good instead of traveling onto Bright to get the keys at the real estate agent.
