      Spacious house with everything you need, close to town. Lots of cobwebs in outdoor entertainment area. Loud at night time as it is on the main highway and a train line.

      Can hear noise from traffic expected on a main highway
      If you Went modern forget this one, if you want old and comfy this is it! Kitchen cupboard door needs attention and need a frypan. If you are very tall and wider than average shower may be to small.Overall we liked this place, would stay again. Big yards well. Place was comfortable oveall
