Awesome family Christmas catchup, Raven retreat was everything we could have wished for and more. The Grandchildren loved the heated pool and theatre room was a hit. Well equipped with everything you could possibly need from a holiday home.

I hired the house for a family and frienda catch up. There were a number of us required to stay for the weekend. The house was fantastic. It was beautiful in its design, everything was modern and easy to use. The residence had all that we required. I strongly recommend staying here.
The staff were very kind, making contacting them with any queries very easy.
My family thanks you for a lovely stay.

The property is very light, incredibly spacious and on a quiet street. You can dine alfresco and it worked well for a large family group. The manager was always available and for a break with friends or family, it’s perfect. Also close to shops and cafes.

House was stunning, clean and spacious. Had everything we needed. Everyone enjoyed themselves. The only let down is that the pool was only warm and heated for the first night we were there the following 2days the pool was cold. The kids still went for a swim and everyone enjoyed themselves. The ping pong table was hit 👌

I would like to express my disappointment with the way in which you have handled the issue with the sauna door.
Firstly when I made the booking, the property was advertised with a working sauna/pool area.
I also confirmed when making the booking that their would be children also staying at the property during our holiday stay.
When we attended the property the sauna door was left placed against a wall and not connected to the door frame where it should have been connected.
I think it is negligent on the property owners and agents behalf to leave a door with glass panels disconnected from the wall, especially when you were made aware that children would be staying in the house.
The door fell away from the wall and the glass severely cut me,on both my hand,feet and legs(photos can be supplied).

Beautiful house but the facilities weren’t operating as they should of.
The pool was green and virtually unusable (couldn’t see the bottom of the pool).
Otherwise it’s a great property for a larger group

Great house with plenty of space. Was bigger than expected.
The house had plenty of room to accommodate our massive family and give each other space. The pool was the biggest hit with the kids. We would definitely stay there again.

Amazing location & facilities.
This property exceeded our expecations. The layout was great & the pool was lovely especially on a warm day. (loved the heated pool touch). Would definitely go back! (only thing I would say is there was only 1 toilet roll per bathroom provided....).

Overall a great stay...just a few suggestions....
My family and I had a great stay here over Easter. We had a family group of 6 adults and 4 kids and there was plenty of room for all of us. The cubby house and pool were both a major hit with the kids. Overall the house was well fitted out - some minor things though that we would have expected given the per night cost - no hairdryer, hardly any clothes hangers in the wardrobe and the few that were there were bent metal ones, no drawers to put clothes in in the bedrooms, not many glass wine glasses. And some of the beds were not that comfortable.
