The place was big enough for our extended family group with lots of decks and places to chill out in. The dining table room was amazing. It was an easy 10 minute walk to Byron shops, across the road from the Bay Grocer and a short walk to The General Store for morning coffee. It felt like a home, with lots of cosy touches. Only issue was only having one bathroom, but it was very clean. ##### Lisa H.

Just a short walk to the Main Street and all the eateries and boutiques. The house itself is beautiful with gorgeous furnishings and decor in a lush tropical setting with visits from the birds every morning. Our dog was well looked after too with bowls. Only draw back was the beds were not very cozy and we all had to sleep with the AC on in our rooms and the bins hadn’t been taken out so after 5 nights it was very full! Each room had its own tv which was good as were a family of myself and my three adult kids all in their 30’s. The lounge room had a lovely corner leather couch with plenty of for all of us. Overall we absolutely loved our stay! ##### Karen C.
