We stayed end Jan 2021 - and had a great time in a beautiful home. Probably shouldn't be saying this as it won't be available when we next want to go ! It has everything you need and definitely a better quality place. Thank you to the owners :)

About the host
Hosted by Ngaire Koch
Mark and Ngaire bought this house with the intention of eventually retiring into it. We have decided to share it with travellers as it also allows us to use the house on the odd occasion before we can move there permanently.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Waterside Canal Dreams because of the view of the canals! We love the fact that the house has been purpose built to capture every canal glimpse possible. We also appreciate that it is all one level so will be suitable for us in our old age if we have mobility issues. Having our own jetty where we can just step onto our boat without the drama of trailering and launching was also very attractive to us.
What makes this property unique
Sensational view and extensive deck to appreciate it from!
