Private, Quiet and Lots of room

Had family from Canada with us, great beds, lots of room, very well equipped with all that you would want and more and as we had to be confined because of the weather a great place to spread out.

Easy trip into town

Good place to stay for our needs. Close enough to town and could bike there in 15 minutes using the lake side walk way which was good for bikes, scooters and skateboards. Ideal set up for families.

Great property

The house was very carefully looked after and overall a fantastic stay. Cosy and well, located, about 5 minutes away from town. Probably the only thing to consider is that is a tight parking for two cars so I wouldn't recommend taking more than 2 vehicles.

Family getaway

Close to lake. Food is great at the two mile club just a 4min walk away from house. Easy access by roads to get to all tourist spots. WIFI not the best can only use for general phone surfing not good enough to chrome cast so if wet bring board games

Clean & Comfortable

This stay was perfect for our requirements with 4 bedrooms, and 2 toilets. This was probably the cleanest accommodation I have ever stayed in. couldn't fault it. Just be aware of the narrow driveway if driving a bigger vehicle.
