Property was excellent, clean neat and beds were comfortable. Very quiet! Close to all that Normanville has to offer food/shopping wise and a short drive to the beach! Property is pet friendly so our dogs were able to chill and relax on a holiday with us! There were grassed parks close by to exercise yr dogs. Host communicated well and electronic entry was excellent, no need to worry about keys!Weather was a little cool so required some heating, split system worked well. Would recommend, a great property to spend a few days at with a family or a couple! Thanks we enjoyed our stay!

Absolutely Outstanding

We had a wonderful stay. The house is beautiful, clean and very comfortable. We were close to everything but not too close that it felt busy. Checking in was simple and communication was excellent. Our dog really enjoyed the garden and we loved sitting on the comfortable outdoor furniture on the deck. Our family loved the big round snuggle chair so much that we are going to buy one for our home. We are looking forward to booking another stay in the future. I would recommend this property very highly even if you aren't planning on taking your pet but it is an ideal property if you are bringing your whole family along.
