My partner & I loved our stay, we didn't want to leave. This property offers the feeling of bush camping with all the amenities you need and is dog friendly. It's the perfect location to explore the coast. The hosts communication was good and they were very welcoming. We have already rebooked, can't wait to come back

We loved the secluded location of the property and especially the spa bath that was nicely located within the main area of the cabin. The bed was comfy, we loved the fact that all basic cooking needs were there- oil, salt, tea, coffee and milk. The place was clean and serene, and we didn't realise until the following day that the fireplace was stacked and ready to light! Loved the fireplace too. It wasn't the best weather, so we stayed indoors, but the outdoors looked like a lovely area to explore. The wifi was fast and worked well, we were overall really happy with our stay- it was just what we needed to unwind and relax from our busy lives!!

Beautiful Rural Property - The Love Shack

My partner and I along with our dog had a lovely short stay at this delightful property. It is secluded and private, set in Bushland and very quiet. The accomodation had everything we needed for a very comfortable stay.

Love Shack

Thoroughly recommend to anyone wanting/needing a relaxing stay. We loved sitting on the back porch with a glass of wine and taking in the scenery. Take some carrots to feed the horses. Cottage exceptionally clean and well appointed. We look forward to another stay - this time in the cooler months.

The place was neat and tidy, and the setting was calming. We came on a rainy day, and were able to enjoy staying indoors for most of the day. Very relaxing.

Perfect winter getaway!

Despite 24/7 rain and wind for our stay we loved our time here. The woodfire and spa bath made it really comfortable inside and our 1 year old border collie loved exploring the area. Great little touches such as warm fire waiting for us and plenty of dog towels helped us manage the wild conditions. Highly recommend

11/10 highly recommend!Before we even got there, Debs communication was great. Location of the Love shack was amazing, we already felt detoxed as we parked the car and we hadn't even opend the door! Upon entry, the shack was spotless, warm and cozy. There was plenty of wood for the fire, bed was comfy, spa was perfect and it was only about a 15ish minute drive to the restaurants with 5 star food.I already want to go back! If I was to nit pick and point out the faults which were very minor, I would say I was really excited to wake up to horses however there wasnt any around as pictured. Also the spa jets didnt turn inside the bath so they were either really strong or they had to be turned off, we couldn't adjust them.Thank you for a stay to remember, we will definitely be back some day, it was up there with one of the best!
