A great family rental
Our stay worked perfectly for our annual family catch up - the downstairs bedroom/bathrooms/laundry set up was ideal and the dining rooms both in and out were excellent. The property was very clean with a well-stocked pantry and excellent cooking utensils and BBQ. 5/5, thank you.

Much needed Getaway
We absolutely loved the house, comfortable beds which is a big plus for me. We had our little grandson who is nearly 3 and a mini Dachshund with us and never had any issues with safety. We would definitely stay again. Thanks so much Sally and Kristina Trish

Torquay long weekend
Positives- nice pool and outdoor areas, plenty of living room areas and nice bathrooms.Negatives- When we arrived we found the fridge doors dirty, upstairs windows dirty. The cutlery draw and cutlery needed to be washed before using, as well as the plate/ bowl draw as they both had food scraps from previous. BBQ was also in need of cleaning prior to use.A nice stay which would have been nicer if we didn’t have to clean before use.

Great stay at highlander
My family and I stayed at Highlander and it was a great stay. The property was clean, the upstairs area was completely childproof was incredibly helpful as I have a toddler. Location was perfect and we were all really happy with the space and the cleanliness we would be looking to stay back here again in the future.
