Girls weekend!

Perfect house for our group of 10. Plenty of space to hang out in the evenings after a full days adventure! Stocked with everything you can think of, including a fantastic view. Great location for exploring the south coast! Be careful of the hot tub, it can get way too hot. Also note the driveway down to the house is a steep gravel path, we were fine with our jeeps, but we witnessed a car get stuck after taking a wrong turn into the driveway. Finding the trash drop off for checkout was a bit confusing, gps coordinates would have been helpful!
