Linen

It is common in the region for some linen to be provided for bookings, and some linen to be available as an optional extra. By default, a booking at this home does not include optional linen (top & bottom sheets, bath towels and pillowcases). What is included are doonas (quilts) with covers, pillows without covers, tea towels, hand towels and bathmats. If you would like the optional linen included in your booking, please let us know, including which beds you would like it provided for. The additional cost would be a one-off charge of $30 per bed (some sites add a service fee to these costs) - and we prefer 7 days' notice prior to your arrival to get that arranged.

Great location!

Fantastic location, nice home although has not had a decent clean for a very long time. Hair found on the couch when we first arrived. Basic cleaning would go a fair distance in making this stay a lot better. Quite disappointing as it would be an overall great place. Also not having an account on Netflix to watch movies ect should also be included in price as so many holiday destinations have this as standard.
