Family Christmas long weekend
Awesome family Christmas catchup, Raven retreat was everything we could have wished for and more. The Grandchildren loved the heated pool and theatre room was a hit. Well equipped with everything you could possibly need from a holiday home.

Beautiful house
I hired the house for a family and frienda catch up. There were a number of us required to stay for the weekend. The house was fantastic. It was beautiful in its design, everything was modern and easy to use. The residence had all that we required. I strongly recommend staying here. The staff were very kind, making contacting them with any queries very easy. My family thanks you for a lovely stay.

Photos don’t do it justice
The property is very light, incredibly spacious and on a quiet street. You can dine alfresco and it worked well for a large family group. The manager was always available and for a break with friends or family, it’s perfect. Also close to shops and cafes.
