Well furnished, comfy beds, modern appliances and very clean. It had everything we needed. Well fenced for our dog(who loved her twice daily swims). It was a short walk to the beach at the end of the street and lovely foreshore walking track and playground. It was great to be able to spend the day at the beach and walk home for lunch and then back down the beach. We will definitely book this house again. Thanks for hosting us. ##### Patricia H.
