This is a great original kiwi bach for a relaxed family holiday. It is compact but had all that we required, with lots of space outside and easy walking distance to the lake.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The property was pretty basic but in a great location. Could have been cleaner.
Was generally good. Biggest issue was cleanliness. My daughter was quite shocked to find crumbs in her bed, sheets obviously not properly cleaned. Also, vacuuming of carpet areas not great either.
