Thank you so much for taking the time to leave us a positive review! We're thrilled to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us and we hope to have the pleasure of hosting you again in the future. Thanks again for choosing to stay with us!
Lovely house and great location, quiet end of town, 5 minutes walk to beach and town. The cleaning was the only let down. Unfortunately all 4 beds in the sleep out were unmade, cleaning of bathroom could have been a higher standard, also no hand soap in either of the toilets/bathrooms. Aside from that it’s a great property and we would book again.

We’re truly sorry that your stay didn’t meet expectations, particularly regarding cleanliness. This is not the standard we strive for, and we’ve addressed your concerns with our cleaning team to prevent this in the future.Thank you for bringing this to our attention - we deeply value your feedback and hope to provide a better experience next time.
The house was great and in a great location but have subsequently been told they are sending me an invoice for a bbq cover. We cleaned the bbq and replaced cover and it was there when we left but apparently not there when someone checked property! So they want me to pay! I would have thought my responsibility was over when I left. And they don’t believe me. So won’t be using bach care again. Not happy
