I recently stayed at this property and regret to report a very disappointing experience. Despite multiple attempts, the host, Heidi, was consistently unresponsive to phone calls, offering limited communication via text only.The property itself presented numerous issues: 1. Lack of Ventilation and Cooling: The house was uncomfortably hot, with only one fan provided for the entire space. This made our stay particularly challenging during warmer days. 2. Window and Flyscreen Issues: Several windows either could not be opened or lacked flyscreens. Some flyscreens that were present had holes, making it impossible to ventilate the house without letting insects in. 3. Balcony Unusable in Rain: The balcony, which could have been a pleasant feature, was marred by multiple leaking spots, rendering it unusable during rainy conditions. The most distressing issue, however, was the presence of bed bugs. On the first night, I noticed bites which I initially assumed were from mosquitoes. However, by the third night, it became evident that these were bed bug bites, confirmed by their distinct pattern and my subsequent physical reactions. Despite reporting this serious concern to the host, the response was dismissive and unhelpful. There was a refusal to acknowledge the possibility of bed bugs, even though I woke up with bites over several days and noticed small blood dots on the sheets. The property's condition, combined with the host's lack of responsiveness and unwillingness to address serious concerns, made for an extremely unpleasant stay. I strongly advise potential guests to reconsider booking this property until these significant issues are resolved. For the price paid and the expectations set, this experience was far below acceptable standards.

Very quiet location. Easy check in process. Loved having an extra toilet. Heating was fabulous. Outdoor area was wonderful. Beds were comfortable. Dog friendly. Kitchen was well equipped.

Dishwasher was not very good and had to rewash dishes, pots etc. Paid for an extra person a month in advance and their bed was not set up, when we set up the extra bed ourself, found mold on the electric blanket. Short 3 towels for a shower, did contact hosts and this problem was rectified after I sent proof that I had an extra person paid for.

House was a great size for our family and the heating was warm and cosy.

The house was further away from town than I thought. Had to use a car to get to the shops.

We enjoyed the cosy gas fire and the kitchen facilities had all we needed to cook up family meals. Unfortunately the oven door was broken but luckily there was a BBQ to cook with. The beds were warm and cosy and there was plenty of hot water for showers. We had fun around the fire pit however there was no wood so we had to buy some. The location was great, nice and quiet.

As we had children with us we were very disappointed with the TV set up. We like to watch movies as a family for a bit of downtime but were unable to do so. The DVD remote had no batteries and the TV remote didn't work. When we eventually got the DVD player working the sound was too quiet and the TV kept glitching. The entire set up needs to be upgraded and some streaming services added. Generally the house was clean, all the linen was spotless however the place could probably do with a deep clean in wardrobes and remove mould from bathroom ceiling etc. The house looks much bigger in the photos but it was okay.

Nice and cozy

Everything was perfect

Tidy and comfortable.

Couldn’t adjust heater temp. Bit too hot. Not very good light on entrance to property.

it was very homely . large comfy sofa , fire pit ready to go, well stocked kitchen with crockery and utensils. very clean and welcoming beautiful quiet natural setting

Lovely quiet bush location near Blackheath, and not hard to find. Homely, tasteful welcoming place. Heating was great for the cold weather. Good kitchen facilities to cook for five people. I missed a colander or sieve though.

The driveway - could do with being levelled as tree roots bumped the car out of alignment. Double mattress was very soft in end bedroom - I woke with an aching back.
