Other Things to Note:
There is a limit of 8 adults plus 4 children at this property. After six guests, extra linen/ bedmaking fees are automatically applied to the booking of $20 per person, per night (in an effort to keep fees down for one family or couple stays.) It is important to ensure that the TOTAL number of guests are entered at time of booking so we can account for bed-making and linen requirements. If additional guests decide to join this booking at a later stage (within the maximum guest allowance) it is very important to let your host know of the changes with as much notice as possible (at least 5 days prior to you arrival).
We provide a limited supply of firewood for the indoor fireplace only. BYO firewood for fire pit (Fire pit use permitted May-October only) Firewood can be purchased from most petrol stations.
We allow guests to log into their own streaming channels so please bring your own log in details.
BYO beach towels. Cotton Turkish towels are provided for the pool but you may wish to BYO as they are thin (for purposes of fast drying between check-ins).
Noise - Noise travels far in tranquil neighbourhoods. Please have consideration for the neighbours and their children. No excessively loud music or rowdy behaviour will be tolerated. While evening family BBQ's are expected and encouraged, if you are looking for a party house, please keep looking as this property is not the right fit for you. No off-road vehicles such as dirt bikes and quad bikes of any description are permitted on this property.
Fire Restrictions - There are strict fire restrictions in place in the Southwest for good reason. Strictly no fires to be lit between the months of November to May (this includes the indoor log fire and outdoor fire pit). No open, uncontained fires, such as bonfires, to be lit on this property at anytime of year, under any circumstances.
Pets - Please note there is a fenced area for pets, however, we are not confident enough to advertise this space as completely escape-proof. We believe small dogs may squeeze under the fence, and dogs of all sizes may be able to dig their way out if left for periods unsupervised. The property backs onto Biddle Road which does have tendencies for high-speed traffic. Strictly no pets permitted in the pool or fenced pool area. Extra pool service fees will apply if there is evidence that dogs have been swimming in the pool. No pets are permitted on indoor or outdoor furniture and please keep pets out of any rooms with carpet. Guests must bring pets own bedding, food & water bowls and anything else they may need. No responsibility will be taken for pets by the property manager, True South Escapes or by the owners of this property. Bring your pets entirely at your own risk.
