Perfect little getaway

We booked this accommodation for a family members wedding around the corner. The location of this was great, short walk to the beach and the path that leads right into the pain town area which has lots of food options. The house was nicely set up for a large family, clean with a freat backyard and entertaining deck.There was no WiFi, and there was no condiments or items you would generally find in a short term rental, this is definitely a long term rental where you bring everything yourself which isn't a bad thing but just something to note. We had a great time and highly recommend for families.

Relaxing weekend away

What a lovely stay we had at Joe's Ryegowrie home. Perfectly positioned in Rye on the border of Blairgowrie. If you have kids this place is the perfect getaway. Our 5 and 7 year old were entertained by the play equipment in the backyard while adults relaxed on the back deck. On a rainy day the kids enjoyed boardgames, the foosball table & DVD's. The double bunk beds were a hit, with no fights needed over who got the top bunk - they both did. The other 2 bedrooms were comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with basic essentials which was helpful. Overall a very enjoyable stay which we would recommend and visit again

Realistic review

We stayed at this property over the weekend and, while there were some positive aspects, there were also a few areas that could be improved.The property itself was okay, but we found it to be a bit overpriced for what we expected, especially with young children in tow. Upon arrival, there was a noticeable mould smell, and the mattresses were quite uncomfortable, leading to poor sleep for us. Additionally, the metal bunk beds in one of the rooms were very squeaky, and any movement on the top bunk woke up the person below, which made it difficult for our children to get a good night's rest.We also noticed a fair amount of dog hair on the couch, which was a bit off-putting. The two Border Collie dogs next door barked quite frequently, which made it challenging to settle our children, especially combined with the noise from the squeaky beds.One issue we encountered was with the bathroom. After our kids used the bath, the water backed up through the shower drain and blocked the bathroom sink, preventing the water from draining for quite some time.Another concern was the dishwasher, which had an unpleasant odor, similar to rotten fish, making it unusable due to the smell when the door was opened.On a positive note, the backyard was spacious and provided a great space for our children to play. However, the street is quite hilly, which made biking with young kids a bit difficult.While we appreciate the property's potential, we hope future guests have a better experience.

Perfection

We absolutely loved our stay. The home had everything you could need on a holiday and was perfect for our little family. Great location being 5 minutes walk to a child friendly beach. Shops are also a short drive away. Location was peaceful. Host was great allowing us to check in earlier and leave a little later which was fantastic!

Amazing getaway

Joe’s place was lovely. We had such a great time. It was exactly as described if not better. A leisurely 25-30 min stroll to the Blairgowrie shops with young children and only a few minutes walk to the beach.

Belle of a Beachhouse

We had a lovely stay here in Rye/Blairgowrie. This 3 bedroom property is close enough to the WhiteCliffs/Tyrone beach to walk. It’s a beautiful stretch of beach and also an easy 2km walk to either Rye or Blairgowrie. 6 minute drive to some beautiful Blairgowrie back beaches with rock pools and plenty to explore. Fantastic playground for kids and a big yard. Loved the outdoor shower with hot and cold water. Nice deck for eating meals.

Christmas in Rye

We rented the house for 2 weeks over Christmas and New year. We had a great time. The house is 5 minutes walking distance from the beach, garden is massive for kids, deck is very handy too. The outside bath is cool too, handy to rinse after a sea bath. Inside the house has all (except dishwasher but we knew about). It was a very nice time in the house overall. We recommend it to new comers.

Thank you Joe for allowing us to stay at your Ryegowrie house. The kids absolutely loved the backyard and the house had everything we needed in it. Thank you also for the kind welcome and small touches that made it extra special. We will certainly keep your house in mind if we ever venture that way again. A very pleasant experience. Thanks. L

The Perfect House

We thoroughly enjoyed our week stay in this perfect house over late Dec 16 - early Jan 2017. The house was immaculate upon our arrival and had everything we needed. Backyard speaks for itself (amazing) and the outdoor shower / bath was used most days after the beach. House owners were lovely to deal with and we would would highly recommend this property.
