Great hospitality in lovely tranquil location

This property is tucked away in a quiet, rural location but is perfectly located for access to beaches, walks, shops etc. Brendon was extremely friendly, welcoming and helpful, suggesting we check out the surf - which was fab! Wish we'd stayed for more than one night!

Awesome stay

We stayed for 5 nights and could not have asked for anything more! Kris went out of her way to make sure you had everything you needed and if you didnt need anything, you had your privacy on their beautiful property. A very special place that we are very grateful to have stayed at.
