“Lovely home with large pool, but keep the gate locked.”
We. loved that were was loads of room for everyone and it was great to have our own yard and pool. We all found the beds comfy beds and liked our private lockable rooms. We thought the lounge area was lovely and it was great to have a full kitchen.
A storm front came through while we were there and a few small roof tiles blew off resulting in a leak starting down the lounge wall. They were able to come the next day to fix it but it did mean the lounge wasn't functional for 15-16 hours. One afternoon while only one of us was there and swimming in the pool, without any warning the gate was pulled open and 3 men and a truck came into the yard. They didn't see anyone home at first and it looked they they were preparing to jump into the pool. When notified that someone was there they looked at each other then motioned to the bins trying to say they were there to collect the bins, which were empty. They had a look inside them then left. After that we kept the gate locked at all times. However we did find the gate lock was a little tricky at times, especially if only some of us went out but others stayed there as we didn't want to leave it unlocked anymore.
