Wonderful
Reviews are presented in chronological order, subject to a moderation process, and verified unless otherwise labelled.
With the exception of a cold shower the first morning because both gas bottles were empty and tv setup was impossible to use because there were no instructions, however we enjoyed our stay.
The house was well equipped and comfortable.

Hi Gregory, Thanks for your review. The gas bottle was resolved within an hour of being advised sincere apologies for this inconvenience. You and your partner were given personal walkthrough of the TV and hifi system when Russell delivered some extra wood for you when you first arrived. The TV is connected to wifi and so you can watch what ever you like when you like. I understand that you don't have your TV connected to the internet at home so this was a challenge for you. We understand that you are used to just flicking through the free to air channels. We were only a phone call away if you needed any further clarification.
