This bach is perfect for a large group. There are three floors with bedrooms and each floor with its own bathroom/toilet. It caters for all generations with pool table, table tennis, toy room for little ones, sunny conservatory, roomy bedrooms. Very close to the lagoon and beach. Well equipped kitchen for a large group up to 18. Woodburner in lounge for cold days. We noticed this bach was warm day and night and we used no heating at end of September. The owner was very helpful and pleasant to deal with. The only negative was the requirement to clean the bach before leaving. We would willingly have paid extra for a cleaner. The previous users had not cleaned very well.

We have stayed at the MacRae's holiday home in January for about the last 7 years. We just love Castlepoint with all the walks and safe swimming areas for the younger ones. Usually we have a big group of extended family staying. The house is well maintained, has some of the best views of Castlepoint, is close to everything, is comfortable and spacious. There is plenty of parking. Having a games room and bedrooms, bathroom and kitchenette downstairs is a real bonus. The teenagers love it. The older one love it too. We feel very privileged to be able to renew our booking every year. Linda has been very accommodating over the years. Thank you.

Ideal location and layout...slept 5 separate families comfortably (could have had another 2!) with different age groups able to split up and enjoy the different areas of the house. 'The kids just seem to vaporise,' was how one mum described it cos the house is so huge! And being able to head across the road and on to the beach was bliss. We loved the views of the lighthouse and also to be able to walk up there and point out the house was fun. We put a bucket of water to wash off sand by the steps but having tiled floors in the main part made for easy maintenance. Loved it and can't wait to go back again - a perfect getaway.
