This house is located in a quiet residential area, making it perfect for families seeking a peaceful retreat. It’s not a party house, and we ask that guests respect the lovely neighbours who live here year-round. Please keep this in mind when booking.

During the quieter months, we also welcome tradespeople who need accommodation while working in the area. If you're in town for work, this could be a comfortable base during your stay.
