  • "Lovely place to stay, very isolated, quiet, just what you need to get away from everday life. The house is fully contained with everything you need. We stayed with our children and another family and had a great time, we would love to go back."

  • "The "Love Shack" was a great place to stay for a romantic weekend. The house is very well equipped, and the island is beautiful. We couldn't believe how good everything was."

  • "Absolutely gorgeous inside and out! Very private location, plus this property has everything you could ever need while away. Very special to see a complimentary bottle of red & white wine waiting for us on our arrival! Don't be fooled into thinking it's just for couples either - we took our 2 boys (8 & 5yrs old) over Easter and they had a ball. Plenty of room for them to run around outside, plus we drove around the island and went fishing and swimming. We ate lunch at Aunty Alice's Cafe and had dinner at the Bowls Club, both lovely meals, but the most enjoyable meal we had was a BBQ at the Love Shack on our first night. A very relaxing get-away, without giving up life's little luxuries. Would recommend it in a heart beat! "
