Absolutely amazing house!
! From the host just being very kind and help, to a beautiful big house. You could not go wrong with booking this for a lovely break away Every bedroom is decorated beautifully There is a large game room that the kids loved!! And everyone loves the hot tub We had a large group of 9 adults 5 kids and there was so much room and space that no one got in each other way. The house location is great close to shops and pubs. Lovely walk down to the harbor Could not recommend this house any more Perfect Thankyou so much for - beautiful stay
The house was fabulous and suited all of our needs.
Jacki couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating - providing all advice and assistance throughout! We would definitely return to this house or consider the other house looked after by Jacki in St Bees!
Whilst a beautiful home and decorated and furnished to a high standard a number of things made it difficult.
Fridge in main kitchen had to be cleaned. One first floor bathroom out of action until the Wednesday, which meant the day of the wedding some of us needed to go elsewhere to shower. The bed springs in the double bedroom on first floor right side were broken so the bed sank in the middle. There was a continual roof leak in the first floor bedroom at the front of the house requiring us to position bin and bowl as the carpet was getting wet.. We understood about the bathroom as you cannot foresee these things. However the leaking roof seemed to be an established leak and we could have been notified. Obviously it rained heavily throughout our stay and with better weather some things may not have been noticed.
