    George the host was incredibly helpful before we arrived and it felt like there was no task he wouldn’t complete to make sure we had a comfortable stay. The house itself is the perfect hosting space. There was 10 of us in total but at no point did we feel on top of each other as the space was so great. We arrived when it was dark so waking up to the views in the morning was a gorgeous surprise! Would definitely recommend this property to any large groups who want a relaxing trip away!

    The place had pretty much everything you could need. We arrived to find a lovely welcome pack in the amazing kitchen. Even the dogs had a welcome pack

  • Terry

    The accomodation was perfect, large enough for all to have space and children to enjoy themselves. I would certainly recommend this to friends and family and as it looks like I will be returning for a other run around the island in next year's Ring of Fire race... We will be looking to book this again.
