Fantastic stay. It's a beautiful old house fully renovated with a jacuzzi and BBQ outside in entertainment area. The owner is very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

A fully furnished three bedroom house with nice outdoor area including outdoor spa - relaxed setting - laundry facilities available - good heating - plenty of pillows, blankets, towels etc. - a very well presented residence with lots of quality finishes

Awesome little house not to far out of town. Has an amazing view of Mount Wellington, and some great coffee spots in walking distance. Host was fantastic and even left us some bread, milk and muffins. Oh and don't forget your swimmers the spa is soooo good.

Heidi Australia

A lovely old nostalgic house with so much character mixed with modern touches. The house was impeccably presented with ample space and a wonderful childrens area in the courtyard. Walking distance to shops and cafes and just an all round pleasurable experience.
