About the home

The central open plan Kitchen/Dining Room provides access to both Bedrooms and a bathroom (with shower & toilet). Internal doors lead to the Double garage which in turn has a 2nd bathroom (with shower & toilet) and fully equipped Laundry (with washing machine and clothes dryer).

Outdoor Areas

The covered rear Alfresco (with gas BBQ, table & chairs for 6 people with an additional 8 chairs in the garage) overlooks enclosed rear and side yard which is perfect for children and pets. The double garage provides parking for 2 cars, there is space for 3-4 cars in front of the garage and the long side driveway provides space for an additional two vehicles (cars and/or a boat).

Please note there are three security cameras facing the external areas of the home - they do not view any private areas in the home.

Linen

It is common in the region for some linen to be provided for bookings, and some linen to be available as an optional extra. By default, a booking at this home does not include optional linen (top & bottom sheets, bath towels and pillowcases). What is included are doonas (quilts) with covers, pillows without covers, tea towels, hand towels and bathmats. If you would like the optional linen included in your booking, please let us know, including which beds you would like it provided for. The additional cost would be a one-off charge of $30 per bed (some sites add a service fee to these costs) - and we prefer 7 days' notice prior to your arrival to get that arranged.

I paid extra for linen $30 per bed and looked dusty with very low quality. Pillows were too soft. We were only supplied with 4 rolls of tissues for 4 days for 10 people! Carpet and rugs were dirty. BBQ was rusty. Only great about it was you could bring a pet. Location was ok. 10 minutes walk to town.
