The property and house were absolutely beautiful, there is no doubt! being freezing cold, the house was plenty warm with a fire going and the reverse cycle heating. Very scenic and quiet if that is the escape you are after.Reasons for not giving 5 star:Wifi access is supplied, described as "generous" amount of download, but if it runs out will incur further payment for more data. 2.5hrs of internet access to watch 1 movie for a 3 night stay Hot tub isnt good for use in winter, whilst it is heated by fire, it only got the water to luke warm. Would be fine in the warmer weather.We had to not only do the typical and reasonably expected tidying on departure, but had to clean the hot tub, strip not only the bed sheets, but the doona/quilt covers and all pillow cases and take them to the laundry.As the council dont provide a rubbish removal service, we had to take all of our rubbish from the property at the end of our stay. Which on a rural property is a lot as you have to bring everything.Not completing these tasks would have incurred a fee. You only find out about these requirements and associated fees in the welcome email after paying for the accommodation. Which for 3 nights, for 4 adults in August (not school holidays or long wkend) was just over 1660 and included a 130 cleaning fee.Overall, very over priced for a "luxury escape" in which we had to dedicate a few hours of tidy up before we left. Not the best way to end a short, "relaxing", Mum's group get away.
