Location is excellent, easy access to Berry, Kiama, Gerringong and Gerroa. House is spacious and has most essentials, a few items had run completely low. Eg. Hardly any dishwasher liquid and no food wrap. One of the ensuite bathrooms was not very clean, hair on floor of shower and walls. One of the beds had dark hours on the sheets like they had not been replaced with clean.The 4th bathroom is only just a bathroom, (part of laundry) handy for the extra toilet but shower has no screen.The property has amazing views and is quiet and peaceful. The gardens are lovely. Would be handy to have proper BBQ utensils and some proper BBQ cleaning wipes or similar to make it easier for guests to clean up the BBQ which is a requirement on departure. Overall the property suited our stay and we loved the quiet secluded location.

The quiet, secluded setting, lovely gardens and easy access to the surrounding towns make this a special spot, and we're glad the house suited your stay. Thank you for the feedback on supplies, the cleaning in one ensuite and the BBQ utensils, which has been noted. Our rental agreement asks guests to let us know during their stay if anything needs attention, so our team can address it at the time. We look forward to welcoming you back.
I have a mobility issue so the stairs were a bit of an issue.Other than that, all was great.

Great place in terms of relative closeness to Berry and Nowra. Rural setting and view a real pleasure. Three bathrooms including two with ensuites helpful. Steep stairs to ground so as we did have a walking 12 month old had to be on watch and make up temporary barriers but for an older family would be fine. The BBQ is great as is outdoor table, although was challenged by inside fireplace as no instructions to be seen.The biggest problem was the house water pump attached to the house that went off every 60 seconds for about 30 seconds day and night. I suspect it's a fault and simply needs to be rectified.Appliances worked well. You do need to bring all condiments eg. salt, pepper, as none available...there was some Olive Oil.Overall despite been a little tired it was an enjoyable stay.

Thank you for your detailed feedback. We’re pleased you enjoyed the rural setting, views, location, outdoor area and the home’s layout.
We have noted your comments regarding the water pump and will have this checked, as the level of cycling described may indicate an issue requiring attention. Your feedback regarding clearer fireplace instructions has also been noted.
As with any holiday property, guests travelling with very young children should assess the home on arrival and provide appropriate supervision around features such as stairs. Pantry staples and condiments can also vary between stays and should not be assumed to be supplied unless specifically listed.
We appreciate the balanced feedback and are glad that, overall, you enjoyed your stay.

While the property provided a great family friendly space with beautiful views, it was unfortunately let down by a few issues:- No hot water on arrival as the gas cylinders were empty. The property managers advised they could not replace the gas due to it being a public holiday, and suggested that we purchase a replacement gas cylinder and fit it ourselves. We had no hot water for 24 hours.- Significant black mould on the ceiling in the downstairs "bathroom".- Mould in the grout in the upstairs bathrooms.- A hole in the floor in one of the bathrooms, covered over with duct tape.- Dishwashing detergent and hand soap bottles were empty.- A large bin overflowing with rubbish outside the front door on arrival. This was brought to the attention of the property manager but was not removed during the week we were there.- No Breville coffee machine as advertised.- Personal items (medical devices) left in the bathroom drawers and clothes in the bedroom wardrobe.Overall disappointing as the property has great potential., Would not recommend staying here in its current state.
