We had a wonderful stay and couldn’t have asked for a better place for the weekend. The house was absolutely beautiful, perfectly presented, and had everything we needed. The pool was a real highlight and made our stay extra relaxing. The space was comfortable, clean, and felt like a true home away from home. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable getaway."

"Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property has the potential to be a dream stay, but unfortunately it feels quite neglected and in need of some TLC.The windows and fly screens were very dirty and clearly haven’t been cleaned for a long time. There is no air conditioning and, despite checking beforehand, none of the bedroom fans were working. I had read a review from April 2025 mentioning the same issue and specifically asked about it prior to booking, so it was disappointing to arrive and find this hadn’t been addressed. The weather was hot and humid, which made sleeping very uncomfortable. My son slept outside because it was way too hot in the bedrooms. The clothes airer was broken and kept collapsing, the towels were very old, and there wasn’t even a tea towel provided. We were given only one hand towel and a worn bath mat for the whole group.That said, there are some positives — the lounge furniture is comfortable, the open-plan kitchen is lovely, and the shower is good. With proper maintenance, working fans (or air conditioning), and better basic supplies, this could be a beautiful place to stay.At the moment, however, it doesn’t match the expectations set in the listing."
