May holiday.

Mostly fine the house was great, would have been good if it had been a bit better cleaned a lot of dust on skirtings and sweet wrappers around couch cushions, in drawers etc. No toilet cleaning soap or cloths wipes and when staying there there for 10 days felt this was needed.Also lockbox was at the back, good if this was expressed in info re bach also to enter from the back as front door could get damaged by trying to get in with wood there.

Lovely Bach

This bach is a perfect place to stay. Quiet street, lovely neighbours, easy and close to shops, beach, pump track and play ground. Really nice layout of the house. We really enjoyed our stay. There is a great big sand sune to the left of the surf club for boogy boarding down. Heaps of fun!
