Christine Arnold
Lovely house in a tranquil setting. A great place to relax.
Response from Owner
Thanks once again Christine for the booking. Appreciated as always ☺️
Lydia Garner
You can't get there soon enough! We had a wonderful, relaxing stay with all the comforts of home. We were a group of five mamas with 22 children between us, and we loved our little getaway and the solitude the beautiful property afforded. June is great as a host, and we loved everything about the stay! Definitely keen to go back sometime!
Response from Owner
Thanks Lydia. Crikey you would have relished a break away albeit a short one. Really happy that you enjoyed yourselves and good on you for organising it. Mums need regular breaks and catch ups. Good for the soul😁.
Kate Toki
We really enjoyed our stay at Slice of Paradise! It is such a cosy home which has everything you could need and more. Loved the garden, stream & wild life (unfortunately the outdoor bath wasn't working during our stay). Very well equipped kitchen and laundry, comfy beds, good shower and plenty of space. Jude is so lovely and helpful too, I can't recommend this holiday home highly enough!
Response from Owner
Thanks Kate for the lovely review. So pleased you had a good time and relaxing too I hope. I wasn't aware the bath wasn't kicking in but will check it tomorrow when there. It does take a few goes to get it to click in and heat though. Sorry that didn't work for you. Thanks again and for the booking🦋☺️
