Summary: It's was an amazing stay. The people managing the property were wonderful. Only faults I would say is that I was surprised there was no internet, especially because of the location. That made things difficult with kids. Also no dryer. It would have been nice to have dry clothes rather then leave with wet clothes to pack. The actual house was beautiful and was a mix of modern and traditional. Loved sitting out on the verandah in the morning with the sun rise and enjoying breakfast. Or watching the sun set with all the lovely view aspects.
