    Beautiful well appointed house. Fully equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and good attention to detail throughout the house. There are three bedrooms on the ground floor and they remained relatively cool despite the record daytime temperatures. We couldn't fault the facilities provided in the house.The only negative is that the house is in a terrace and although we heard nothing through the walls, when we had the patio doors open we could clearly hear our neighbours and barbecue and cigarette smells drifted in. Also note that very little sunshine reaches the balconies until close to sunset.The onsite facilities are good. The pools are clean and a comfortable temperature. The children loved playing on the tennis courts. The pizzas cooked on site are superb, although the system for ordering them could be improved, as we had to wait over 30 minutes in the queue for the bar to place an order, while the staff struggled to fulfill the drinks orders.

    Our second time at Plovers Nest. Views over Clearwater are the best of the three properties that we have hired at The Lower Mill Estate

    I had a gorgeous stay at Plovers Nest after having stayed previously for my birthday the year before. Would highly recommend such a beautiful stay.
