    “Amazing views from a good sized bach.”

    No off street parking as stated in the ad as the owners Porsche was parked there. We were woken by construction on the property (carport) just after 7am our first morning. A door at the back of the entry drying room is accessible from the unit next door (locked from our side). This was opened by contractors in the neighboring unit without our permission. On the last morning we were woken at 6:45am by the owners moving their campervan and setting off their car alarm (that were parked on the ...

    No off street parking as stated in the ad as the owners Porsche was parked there. We were woken by construction on the property (carport) just after 7am our first morning. A door at the back of the entry drying room is accessible from the unit next door (locked from our side). This was opened by contractors in the neighboring unit without our permission. On the last morning we were woken at 6:45am by the owners moving their campervan and setting off their car alarm (that were parked on the space we were meant to be using). No longer fully fenced (gate has been removed). The yard is shared with the unit behind. We made three calls to Bachcare with our concerns as they happened, which they followed up. No Wifi. No instructions for anything including the washing machine or what to do with used linen. No local information. Great drying room but no pegs to hang washing up with. Only three (drinking) glasses for a house that can host 6 guests. Liquid soap in bathroom was empty, rubbish bins (wheelie bins outside) were over flowing, dishes in the dishwasher when we arrived, furniture was dusty and the stove top was dirty. Considering we paid a huge cleaning fee the house should have been 'clean'. The shower is extremely tired (70's original). There is a big step up into the shower with loose tiles on the window sill. Definitely not a relaxing shower. Only seating for three (one of which is damaged) on the front porch for a house that can host six.

    Hi Louise. Thank you for providing a review on your recent holiday spent here. We really do appreciate your feedback and want you to know that your comments have been shared with the property owner and our teams. I do understand that there has been major construction happening at the time of your booking due to renovations taking place on the neighbouring property. This construction is now coming to an end and should not affect future bookings. Thank you again for leaving a detailed review, so that we can improve the experience a guest would have in future.
