Ferrymead is a great location
This accommodation was perfect for us; my son, his partner and my granddaughter on and off for an extended stay. We enjoyed being close to restaurants and shopping. We rented ebikes for most of the trip and the ride to Sumner Beach from the rental has to be one of the best rides in the world! The home is well equipped, with adequate kitchen supplies and a backyard grill. We would definitely book again!

Quiet neighborhood, lots of room
My mom, nephew and I stayed here in Ferrymead for three nights. The place was easy to find and had a lot of room to spread out. We used the kitchen for a couple of takeaway meals and found all the necessary plates and utensils. The contact person was easy to communicate with and it was a deal for the time and space we required. One thing we really did love were the window coverings, when down you could see out but no one could see in.

It was ok
Communication from property managers was not great and was sent extra payments to be made which then changed after getting bookabach to mediate to help sort out. Property itself was really good and warm apart from a couple of items that didn't work such as a heater in one of the rooms and the hair dryer.

Great value for money
Great property, has all the essentials for a reasonable price. Big house but still cosy. Lounge heatpump didn't work but there were several heaters throughout the house so wasn't a problem & could feel the house was warm. Would definitely stay again & highly recommend
