We had a lovely stay at this property last week. The house is an older-style home and could use a little TLC in places, but it was clean, very spacious, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay including a full laundry (with washing powder provided) and good wifi and mobile signal.The view was absolutely awesome and definitely a highlight. Communication with the host was great. Tips for future guests: the area is very hilly, so we recommend backing up the driveway in 4WD or park on the street. Pick up your basics from Coles and Dan’s, just 5 mins away.Overall, we had a great stay and appreciated the space and the beautiful outlook.

The biggest drawcard for this property are the views (amazing!) and space (plenty)!The rooms were clean but not always spotless (if that is high on your list!). The carpet, rugs and furnishings are a little dated compared to other house listings in the area around the same price. However, the beds, chairs and couches were comfortable and the furnishings very adequate. Just a warning that the driveway is extremely steep and you can only drive up it if you have a 4-wheel drive (which we didn't!). Walking down the driveway can be a little dangerous especially in wet weather (which we had 2 days of) and when wheeling the garbage bin down the driveway for collection (on Sunday night). Overall we had a very pleasant stay and would highly recommend this property for a large family or group who are physically able to walk up and down a very steep driveway. The host was very easy to deal with and responded in a timely manner.
