The property offered all we wanted, but needed better cleaning in a few spots ie BBQ, oven trays, inside rubbish bin. However overall would definitely recommend.

Relaxing quiet location

Check-in process was easy. Lesley was very responsive. The house was nice and homely, clean and tidy. Loved the art work and deco. The garden well maintained and dog proofed. It was nice to sit outside on the deck in the mornings and evenings and listen to the birds sing.The location is nice and quiet, even though it was the Easter break. Great place to unwind and relax. If we were living in South Australia, would definitely be a place we visit often.

The Owner of This House Has Good Taste!

It was a wonderful and relaxing stay for our family at Lesley's place in Clayton Bay, she has spacious and beautiful gardens as well as a massive deck, the size of the house was bigger than what's shown in the pictures, we really enjoyed and appreciated the space we had at this holiday house, and the eye-catching artworks she had on display, just gorgeous, thank you!

Perfect - for us

A well appointed, and very comfortable, home away from home. Just perfect for our needs, wanting peace and quiet with a safe fenced garden for the dogs and extra parking space too. All of our boxes were ticked. Home owner was great at communicating all that we needed to know and was easily contactable if we needed anything😁
