Cricket trip
I stayed with a groip of friends for the cricket. We really enjoyed the stay. There was plenty of space in the house and it had a fantastic location with the beach so close. House was a bit dated, but it didnt disappoint. The hosts were also very helpful.

Great location. Rather dated & musty. 2 guests with asthma & hay fever struggled. 3 couples & 2 singles, not enough double beds. Couldn’t find a broom or vacuum to tidy up.

The location was great not too far to walk to the beach, property could do with updating but it filled our needs for the short stay we had there. Not very child safe being on such as busy road I wouldn't let the children play outside for fear of them running on the road. The owners were very friendly & helpful.

Great location
The location was superb and the size of the house was good. Also plenty of amenities. Unfortunately the decor was very dated and worn. There were no curtains or blinds in the lounge which left the whole room exposed (not ideal as people slept in there) and the neighbours liked looking in at us! We were expecting it to be a bit run down as it was stated but it definitely needs some work done to tidy it up and make it more comfortable.

Xmas at the beach
The location of this property is great. You can see the beach, and its about 100 metres to walk there. Plus right next to handy set of shops (dairy etc). Weather was good and our plan for a family Xmas at the beach with BBQ, cricket, surfing etc. all came together. Property is getting a bit worn inside (1970's decor) but everything works. We had 5 to 7 people (all adults) staying depending on the day, and there is adequate of room for that many.

While the house had great views, it was freezing cold with substandard heating, no curtains at all in living area, dodgy poor closing windows and very run down. This should not be short stay rented out until bought up to comfortable modern standard. Our family was very disappointed.

Superb?
This property is in severe need of a tidy-up. It is a 70's property and appears to have not had anything done to it since it was built over 40 years ago. I would NOT call it superb.
