Relaxing Retreat

Wonderful, peaceful location and comfy home. Appreciate the considerate follow through by owners given the power cut off for period one day which was out of their control. Loved watching the wallabies at the foot of the huge sand dune from the deck.

Good value in great location

Clean and tidy house in a great location within easy walking distance to a long surf beach. A coffee van 5 minutes walk away was a bonus. Every time someone had a shower the pipes made a lot of noise, also the fan or light in the toilet. Other than that all was good.

Relaxing and easy

Had such a good 12 days here! Property had absolutely everything you could need for a holiday so close to the beach and only 10 minutes from cowes! The pizza cop near the bottleo around the corner is a must and the lady in the coffee cart next door is an everyday walk! Love love loved it !

Excellent location and quiet

Stayed here with young family, excellent location, right next to playground and public BBQ. But we chose to use BBQ on the deck, wallabies were a welcome sight each morning with the kids, beach access is only a 5 minute walk, kids loved the beach. Beds were comfortable, , everything worked fine, would definitely stay here again.

Good family time away

Very good property with everything you need in a very good location. A little park one door away and a short stroll to the beach. A few little thoughtful extras here and there such as in the kitchen and I found some good music to watch and play. A little cold in the lower section of the house in winter. In the age of cheap big t.v's I think an upgrade is in order, we don't go away to watch telly but when we do it's nice to have a decent one to watch. Overall a very good place to stay for a few days.

Great stay with the family

this was a lovely place with everything you need for a stay. Great spot to head out for a walk or ride. Expected it to be out of the main town, which suited us. Loved waking up to the wallabies across the road on the sand dunes. Only thing to note was no heating down in the bedrooms and it was a little chilly, but nothing a hot water bottle couldn't solve! Very toasty in the living space. Was a lovely home and would return.

Perfection!!

This house was everything I expected and more. It had all the extras items other holiday houses don't. Plus sand dunes with wallabies can be seen from the comfort of the lounge and beach access only 100 metres up the road. We really enjoyed our stay. Thanks!

Lovely place

We really enjoyed our stay. The place was clean and had everything we needed. It is very close to a beautiful surf beach and has lovely view over the dunes. The one downside is that there is no wi-fi at the property.
