Check-in and -out Times: During the busy months of December and January, the check-in time is 4 pm to facilitate peak back-to-back changeovers. Our standard check-in time is 3 pm and check-out time is 10 am. We offer a complimentary early check-in or late check-out time as a gesture of goodwill where booking and housekeeping schedules allow. Note that due to demand and housekeeping pressures, no early check-ins or late check-outs will be granted during the months of December and January. The safest way to secure an early check-in or later check-out is to book the property for an extra night. Contact us for a special rate for this extra night.

All complimentary early check-ins or late check-outs must be confirmed in writing so that our housekeeping team are informed accordingly.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Whilst the house is large the amenities and the care in presentation was seriously lacking.We had an issue with very smelly bed sheets, dirty bbq, missing kitchen basics (corkscrew, salad bowls etc), only 4 wine glasses (all different), wrong coffee machine for coffee pods provided.The house felt very basic and empty considering the size, limited communal seating in the living room. Uncared for!For the price the property was rented at you would expect a much high quality presentation and care factor. Feels like an unlived and uncared for property.Wouldn’t recommend an definitely wouldn’t stay again.I do need to mention the property manager did jump to action after I called an complained which which was greatly appreciated, it unfortunately didn’t change our perception of the house overall though

Very poor experience with this rental property and its hostWe were locked out the master-room at 2am early morning, because the lock was initially broken, with no access to our essentials, had to call locksmith with panic, and the rental specialist won’t even reimburse the locksmith call out feeBbq was disgusting when we tried to use itAnd you had to chase the host for entry information before arrival because they will forget to share it with youOverall stay was 6/10, but the lock out and refuse to reimburse the locksmith despite they have the advantage makes the overall experience 2/10
