Great location with lots of walking, cycling opps. The kitchen was very well appointed, with everything we needed for food prep and eating. Fantastic range of games for adults and children, with two dedicated game spaces. Outdoor area was secure for kids, awesome spa and eating areas, good barbecue, and great access to the Botanic Gardens via two gates.Dining chairs do need replacing, they were extremely uncomfortable. The bed under the bunk also needs new mattress. Apart from that, we are keen to return as the kids absolutely loved it!

Everything you need

We had 7 adults and 2 toddlers and this property had something for everyone - fantastic layout, plenty of space, lots of extras and the kids were well catered for with their own designated play area - a true home away from home with lovely walks on your doorstep.
