Hastings Property
Surrounding area very untidy. Grass very long, weeds growing in flower boxes, dirt in track of rear sliding screen door. Whole area appears to be very low on maintenance. Misrepresentation of lake and surrounds.

Get place & location shame about the poor management
The house was great as was the location. But there were major issues with no rubbish collection for almost 2.5 weeks. On arrival the grass in the yard was knee deep & it took several days for it to be mowed. The agent though doing their best to manage the place were unable to do anything well because of the owners. The addition of a microwave and more kitchen utensils pots, pans etc is needed. There is a wood burner but it didn’t look like it was in a usable state.
