This house look nice in the photos but was honestly 100 times better in person. So spacious, super clean, fully equipped with so much to do you don’t need to leave the house to have a fun, relaxing time.

This is one of the best equipped, clean and comfortable properties we have ever stayed in. Magnificent views of the lake from the large deck. Glorious to wake up in a cosy bed and hear the birds. Plenty of hot water, plenty of room and plenty of added touches.

Beautiful Setting

This place has it all. A gorgeous house with a set up that was very well stocked with all you could need- eg tea flavours, coffee pods, toiletries. Kitchen equipment and appliances all excellent. The outdoor deck area- was so much more, and when you added the serene view it was such a relaxing place to spend our time. We stayed with extended family - aged 18-80- and all enjoyed the space. Kate was an excellent host, responding to communication quickly. Check in and out all smooth and overall would thoroughly recommend this place.

Absolutely above and beyond!The place was perfect for the 7 adults and 1 dog. Our very anxious dog loved the inside/outside area which gave freedom but could still be with us whilst not I the house.Little extras like shampoo condition body wash and then lots of tea coffee and hot chocolate varieties. A very personal touch of a box of Favourites and popcorn complimentary. Could not recommend highly enough. Kate went over and above with communication. Making sure we had everything we needed and a late check out. Wish we had have booked one extra night!

This countryside property by the lake is a gem! The direct lake access is perfect for morning swims,fishing or kayaking, and the peaceful surroundings create a truly tranquil retreat.The house was spotless and well-maintained, with thoughtful touches that made us feel right at home. It offered plenty of activities - games, books, kakaks - so there was no need to leave. Lots of additional touches as well that were greatly appreciated.Kate was incredibly responsive and attentive, ensuring everything was perfect for our stay.

Exceptional!! Absolutely fantastic.

We had the pleasure of spending our Christmas holiday at this remarkable property with a group of friends and their family and I cannot express enough how extraordinary our stay was. From the moment we stepped in, it felt like a true home away from home. The meticulous attention to detail in both service and amenities truly set this property apart. Every aspect of our stay seemed to be carefully considered, creating an atmosphere of comfort and warmth. It was evident that the owner prioritises the guest experience, making sure that every detail contributes to a memorable stay. The amenities provided were not only extensive but also well-thought-out, catering to every need and enhancing our holiday experience. The kitchen was well stocked. It's rare to find a property where everything seems to align perfectly, creating a seamless and enjoyable stay. I must commend the owner's exceptional level of hospitality. A noteworthy instance was when the owner personally reached out before our scheduled check-out, offering the option of a late check-out. This thoughtful gesture not only demonstrated a genuine commitment to guest satisfaction but also added a personal touch to our stay. Overall, our Christmas holiday at this property was nothing short of exceptional. The combination of a homey atmosphere, thoughtful service, and comprehensive amenities made it a standout experience. I wholeheartedly recommend this property to anyone seeking a perfect blend of comfort and luxury
