Nice property, clean, quiet, as described. BBQ grill with propane in great condition.One of bathrooms has crazy separate hot-cold faucets, but it's manageable.
100% would recommend properly to have relax and make memories with family, easy access to town and activities.

We're thrilled to hear that you had a relaxing stay. It’s great to know that the location and easy access to town and activities added to your experience.
We appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you back again in the future!
The house is spacious and suited to a stay for families or groups. Location is reasonably convenient, but a car is ideal for getting to places of interest.
Really enjoyed our stay for my cousins wedding. Placed in such a convenient place, very private and was big enough for my family and 1 Under 2. Thank you so much team!
Large house accommodate 6 easy. Comfortable. The kitchen floor was very sticky and we had the odd visiting roach at night. But overall good and could park two cars off the road. I would book again.

Thanks for your review and feedback - we’ll be sure to follow up with our team.We appreciate you staying with us and look forward to welcoming you back in the future.
Gillies Charm was just as expected - well stocked house with plenty of room to spread out. Very clean. The neighborhood was charming. Would recommend having a car, as the walk to town is nice once a day but beyond that too much.
The house is well equipped and very comfortable. It is a great set up for families. We will definitely stay there again.The fireplace must be a winner in the winter. The host was very accommodating with our short notice booking request. Communication was prompt and clear
