  Property condition:

  a guest does not recommend this vacation rental.

  Great location with plenty of room in the house. Suits larger groups including people from different families as there are room / sleeping options on three separate levels. Views are very nice.
  General maintenance of house and gardens is poor. Some examples include:
  
  Driveway is inaccessible for most cars (will damage car due to gradient with road).
  
  Driveway plants will scratch your car. These have not been maintained and my car was scratched along the drivers side doors.
  
  Faulty dishwasher - cannot use lower section
  
  BBQ not serviced or usable
  
  Main lounge was "grotty". Felt very greasy and unclean.
  
  Gardens overgrown which made the backyard inaccessible.
