Perfect for young families

We had a wonderful stay at Steve’s home. Everything was incredibly clean and tidy with wonderful facilities for young kids. Ours had a ball on the trampoline every day and played in the cubby house. It’s a great location for biking adventures to the local park, cricket nets, skate park and river. Communication with Steve was excellent. Thank you !

Beautiful house, beautiful stay

House was lovely with all needed amenities and some lovely extras. Kids had a ball in the garden, and made great use of the trampoline. Steve was easy to communicate with and assisted with all our enquires. Even provided a letter to assist our parents, who were unable to make it.

Fabulous- highly recommended

Wonderful holiday home with an incredible array of games and activities for adults and children. Luxurious bedding and bathroom supplies, fully stocked pantry and kitchen making self catering more than enjoyable. Wine, beers, selection of fruit and chocolates and pasta were a great surprise on arrival. Toys, books, bikes, boogie boards, trampoline etc. entertained our kids (3 and 6) for a week.Outdoor shower to make beach trips easier. Thoughtfully designed house with every possible need catered for. Short drive to town, river etc. We have stayed in lots of holiday homes but this surpassed all by a long margin. Could not recommend more highly. Thanks Steve for being a superb host

Relaxing Holiday

The whole family was very impressed with the relaxing and inviting feel of the house. It felt like a home away from home with all needs being met. The children loved the trampoline, kids books and the parents liked that there was nothing lacking in the kitchen or laundry needs. Great place to stay for family and friends.

The overall impression of this property could be summed up as being outstandingly welcoming, and apartment was very family friendly, safe and clean. All kitchen facilities supplied of good quality and quantity. Excellent cupboard space for storage was appreciated. Backyard facilities and equipment including large trampoline just great.

Fantastic Stay

We chose this property because we were looking for a bright, family friendly home where there would be plenty to entertain us and we would enjoy being in if the weather wasn't great. It did not disappoint! Steve was so friendly and easy to deal with, access to the home was easy and no fuss and the place was spotless. The kids loved and got great use of the basketball ring, bikes, scooters and boogie boards when outside and board and card games inside. The adults had plenty of little spots to sit back and have some time out too. All in all we had a fantastic stay and would highly recommend.
