Perfect experience
The house was a delight. The cleanest rental we have ever stayed in. Spacious dining and lounge area and rooms made really flexible with pull out and z-beds. The water pressure made showers a pleasure, the kitchen was beautifully stocked (always a pain to have just as many plates/bowls as beds!) and the renovation retained so much character. The owner was responsive and friendly too, just a perfect experience. We will be recommending widely.
