Great House with a few notes
Overall we really enjoyed our stay, the house was great and so was the location! Just a few things we would change such as: - We had to purchase toilet paper during our stay. It would have been good to have extras stocked in the house to ensure we didn't have to do this. - We had to buy our own washing machine detergent. Again, would recommend having a dedicated washing powder box for the house for guests to use. - The dryer didn't work properly. The dryer constantly kept turning off and we found ourselves opening and closing it to get it to work. Besides these three points everything else was fantastic! Our family really enjoyed staying in the house, cooking our own meals when we stayed in and enjoyed relaxing.

The Beach House
Great location. Loved having a tidy secure yard and the ability to take our fur babies away on holidays with us. Easy access to the beach for daily walks. Checking was a breeze. Nice property with plenty of room for a large family. Wasn’t as clean as I expected. Had to clean the BBQ before using it and there were dead bugs in some of the drawers and bird poo in the outdoor area. There is a vacuum available to use but no vacuum head to do the floors only an upholstery/crevice attachment which is kind of useless. Overall an excellent property and a lovely place to stay.
