San Clemente Vacation Rental house

Without a doubt the most amazing family home ever! We had the best holiday with the wee ones and friends from the UK. We (parents and kids) were entertained every second of the day with all the wonderful toys, the beach, the surfing, the back yard apres surf drinks and dinner. My husband and I actually found the holiday easy, relaxing, effortless...with little kids, holidays are not normally easy. Tim and Cathy's house was a dream holiday come true.
The house is immaculate, luxurious and every aspect of the house is paradise for both adults and children. Just go, dont hesitate. Its worth every penny. Go now!

We rented Tim and Cathy's home the week before Memorial Day this past year and we ere not disappointed at all. We have 2 young daughters (3 and 5) and let me just say that the play area for the kids and backyard play house were awesome. Also the layout of the home lent itself to a very relaxed and comfortable week. We used the beach everyday and it is very close to the home. We love the town also very nice and quaint. Tim and Cathy also allow you to use their beach equipment. Will definitely be staying here again. Thanks Tim and Cathy!

We stayed at Tim's lovely family home during August 2009.

We travelled over from the UK for a wedding in south LA and afterwards spent a fantastic week in San Clemente.

We travelled with our 11 month old son and shared the house with some close friends who now live in Calgary...they have two kids aged 20 months and 3 years.

The house was perfect for us. There is a fantastic playroom for the chiildren...full of wonderful toys and amazing indoor swings...the kids were in heaven. As were the parents! The house lends itself to making a holiday (sorry, vacation!) with kids as easy as it can be. Lots of space, limited hazards and details such as children's cutlery and crockery were much appreciated. When the kids have gone to bed the outside space is lovely to relax in .,. the deck and seating lends itself well to enjoying a large glass of wine and a cold beer or three. I fell in love with the barbeque...really good quality and perfect for cooking the great quality beef and seafood you can get in town.

Apart from the great layout the attention to detail is the thing that strikes you most about Tim's house...the quality of the kitchen appliances, the well stocked larder and the outside post-surf shower with shampoo provided are just a few examples.

My wife and I are keen surfers and Tim kindly arranged for a good quality board for us to hire. He also has a couple of a softboards and boogie boards for guests to borrow. The beach in San Clemente is lovely and just a 5-10 min walk away. The surf here is pretty good and we had lots of fun sessions even though the swell was small. A 10-15 minute drive down the road is San Onofre...a world class longboard wave...for us, the kind of things dreams are made of! We spent lots of time there and I even managed to share the surf with surfing legend Skip Frye, which made my day.

San Clemente is a lovely town, really laid back and relaxing but has some very nice restaurants and shops. Our suitcases were definitely fuller when we left...we spent plenty of our British pounds in "Icons of Surf" and "Mac & Madi" (a fantastic kids shop).

We run a vacation rental property in the UK ("The Lookout" in Croyde, Devon, UK) so know a little bit about what it takes to offer a great property for people to enjoy their vacation and can happily say that Tim's house is outstanding...be confident that you will be staying in a great house in a great location!!!!
