The house was tastefully decorated, spotlessly clean and had all the amenities we needed.
As a group of 7 we were more than comfortable with the 2.5 bathrooms, 3 larger bedrooms, with one of the rooms furnished with a queen bed and bunk beds. The fireplace was perfect for cold nights and the kitchen well stocked. The kids enjoyed the board games and puzzles. I loved the cook books, books, and travelogues lying around. As Melbournians we appreciated the coffee machine and the fresh coffee beans for a delicious cuppa every morning of our stay.
