Incredibly well equipped Home

Great for a getaway where everything is there for you! Very warm upstairs where living and sleeping quarters are. AC doesnt reach the bedrooms. Lots of space and under cover outdoor seating however back fence too low which allowed other big dogs off leash to hang over the fence. Did not feel we could leave ours in yard unattended so no dinners out. Otherwise a very good stay overall in a home where everything was at hand to make you feel at home.😊

Easter 2024

Well equipped home in a leafy & quiet area. We enjoyed our stay at the house and the surrounding areas. Loved the Greek restaurant (Atmos). When we arrived we had to air out the house and we spent 30 mins cleaning the outdoor couch and table. There was not enough toilet paper and we had to buy more. Otherwise it was all lovely,

Excellent property with great facilities

Was impressed with the size of the house. Very comfortable with all the facilities you need for a short- or long-term stay. Great living areas (indoor and outdoor). Also loved the location backing on to the National Park. Was very quiet and peaceful. Only minor criticism is the back deck could do with a few repairs. Overall, we very much enjoyed staying here and definitely recommend it.

Fantastic getaway location

Excellently appointed home with an abundance of everything you could possibly need for a short or long stay, close enough to shops to be convenient but far enough away to be really quiet and tranquil. Loved the bush setting at the rear which opened up to trail runs or beaches with in walking distance. This house has all your needs covered for a small or large group stay Thanks to the hosts

Well equipped and spacious

We had a lovely week in this very well equipped, peaceful and nicely furnished house. The walks from the back gate were a highlight, with Box Beach, Fingal and Shoal Bays in walking distance. Thoughtful inclusions and home comforts made it a special stay.

Thank you!

Lovely house, very well stocked and loved having 2 separate family areas. The location is lovely as well. Unfortunately no clothes dryer which makes it a bit difficult when travelling with children and the weather is wet. Also the backyard needs a bit of attention, not really suitable for young kinds with the grass so tall and some broken pieces around the pond.
