Clean and characters filled with most of what you need and suitable for pets ( dogs) it has an odd configuration, with the t. Room only accessible by going outside along the veranda and it's right in the Maine t to the . Nonetheless the bedrooms are quiet and the guard large and pretty good really. Would I stay here again ? Probably .

Beautiful big, lovingly restored, warm and clean 1917 home. Perfect place for hanging out on cold winter nights cooking and enjoying friendships. Close to Leura town mall for a lovely SPARROWS coffee and breakfast or lunch and a browse through the shops, and close to many beautiful walks and views.

Very disappointing as so dirty and dangerous conditions. The main bathroom has a severe drainage problem and is very poor as the whole bathroom area floods and flows through to the downstairs ceiling and floor area. Veranda areas were all very dirty. Tried to clean but in the end avoided using. The BBQ was not only unusable but dangerous. Grounds were unkempt, outside furniture was dirty and there were spiders everywhere. The steep paths are covered in black mould - very slippery and need water blasting to clean. Unfortunately had a very very bad fall and looking at critical medical care now for lower back and head injury. The downstairs areas are not only dirty but laundry areas posed dangerous electrical shock risk. The house is very much in need of some TLC.
