Sun drenched 2-bedroom house built in 2023. Open plan living, rustic backyard with a meadow (mono-culture lawns are the devil:), outside bath, hammock, fruit trees and vege garden.
Spare bedroom with office set up. Wetback fire, solar panels, external charge point for your EV, and a 10,000 litre water tank. Blue light free lights to help you sleep.
Walking distance to Annam Carram, the river and the beach! TV with steaming service loaded on.
No cleaning fee, but if you're uptight about these things I'm happy to get a professional cleaner in. It's a lived-in house not a holiday home so is fully stocked with things can use but happy to clear things out upon requests.

The house itself was great, really nice and convenient. But it wasn't as clean as it could have been, and I had advised the host that there were four adults staying, yet there were only a double-bed and one single bed made up ready. Also the garden was a real let-down, as the grass clearly hadn't been mown for weeks and just gave the whole place an unkempt appearance. I would not recommend this place to anyone.

Overnight stay OK
The meadow was basically an overgrown weedy lawn, with a few discarded items, sadly the hammock was rotten and unusable. Driveway access is hindered by a curb, but thankful i have a small car. Cottage was cute, beds werent the best but they did the job. Alex was great at communication and helpful.
