The property was pretty awesome for our group - big enough that we could each have our own space when needed, and awesome facilities for communal cooking and sharing of meals. It was very clean, and the kitchen in particular had everything we needed. Great location too for walks and swims.

We did notice that the bed linen was pretty warn could be ungraded . Thankfully we did take extra blankets . The indoor fireplace was great to be around but we had to bring inside the outdoor furniture inside as lack of lounge chairs by the fire place Something that was disappointing was that the sleepout bed had been used and had sand etc in it the bed . We had to wash them . We did book the whole place with that room as we were a large group needing that room . The kitchen and bathrooms were very good

We had an excellent family stay here. The house was perfect for our family of 8 adults and 7 children (4 to 17). Clean, spacious, comfy beds, well equipped kitchen and trampoline and swings for the kids.
Outdoor fire was popular for toasting marshmallows

Great property for a family get together. Outdoor fire and seating area was awesome. The only things we’d have liked is more seating in lounge (there were no bean bags by fire as shown in pictures) and towel rails needed in some bathrooms. Otherwise met our needs.
