New Years Holiday
Charging a cleaning fee is overrated as bathrooms were not cleaned properly. Carpets and floors were not vacuumed or swept. Went to use the vacuum on the day of arrival and it was not emptied, filled to the brim. Used tissues found in bedside table, used coffe mug found in another bedside time.Outdoor area was good, pool and spa was clean.cof drawer.

our stay
lovely property, with some great features, really did enjoy our stay, privacy was a slight issue as there was open viewing of the backyard from the driveway, to which we were not aware of, and it was slightly more warn down then we anticipated how ever it was a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

Homey, spacious and lovely stay
Jane was a lovely host and very helpful with letting us know everything about the house. The house itself was very homey, spacious, and clean. Very close to grocery shops and the main beach of Rye. Will definitely be passing on this house to friends and family when looking to stay in Rye. Thanks again Jane :)
