The stylish media cabinet also holds traditional family games for you to use.

    This place is fabulous and we would stay here again.Sammy always responded to me very quickly.I felt like we were in a luxury property all of the time. Things were so comfortable and clean. I felt pampered my husband and I stayed here alone so we could attend a wedding on the island. I loved the peaceful sounds of cows and sheep, while sitting in the hot tub.

    Wonderful property with all amenities and kitchen appliances. Large windows let in lots of light, beautifully furnished both indoors and out on the deck. Hot tub for guest use. Washer/dryer great. Location in Okains Bay is fantastic with amazing beach, a local general store and historic museum.

    A really great property with all the amenities you could need. We used the outdoor spa every night, and what a special tranquil vibe with stars and birdsong. A perfect spot for relaxing and revitalising the spirits.

    Beautiful house with everything you need. Very modern, clean and tidy with great communication. Although it is very close to the beach, we loved relaxing in the Spa pool and having a BBQ on the deck as the house has beautiful views.

    My sister and I enjoyed a fabulous 3 night stay (wish it had been longer) in this lovely home with so many individual touches. The welcoming gifts were an added delight and the location perfectly suited us. Communication with Samie was excellent. I look forward to returning; we did not want to leave!

    This home is significantly more beautiful than the pictures can show. It was warm, modern and has incredible art work on every single wall, even the laundry. We didn’t have good weather but sitting and reading in front of the big window with the rural outlook was bliss. The beach is incredible, totally underrated.

    We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bach and would have loved to stay longer. The interior design of the house is beautiful and we made full use of the large patios surrounding the property. The beds were comfortable and found everything we needed in the kitchen & bathrooms. The hosts are very responsive and helpful in providing suggestions of local spots to try & to buy from. Highly recommend and we hope to be back soon!

    Amazing place to stay. The house is beautiful and the interior design & features exquisitely presented. If you like the taste of 'French Rustic' then you will LOVE this place. Decking on both sides enabling you to catch all day sun. The historic Okains Bay store just walking distance down the road. There were 6 of us staying (plenty of room and space) and each and everyone raved about this holiday home. I 100% recommend staying here and I would love to come back and enjoy another holiday/break soon. Thank you Samie :-)
