Tom's place is a well appointed, large, inviting and really comfortable home. We stayed with two small kids (almost 2 and 4 years old), and the house worked really well. The garden down the bank is great for some exploring, as is the reserve right behind the house. There are a number of playgrounds in walking distance. Beaches are about 15 min drive and fantastic. Tom thoughtfully suggested a few things we could do in the area, was super fast and easy to communicate with, and left some kids books and even his kayak out for us. We had a fantastic time and can only recommend Tom's home.
