Hi Naomi
Thank you very much for your review and for staying at the Old Boathouse.
A lovely coastal-style retreat with gorgeous outdoor spaces and BBQ area. Cosy chill-out zones, great airflow, ceiling fans, make it ideal year-round. Quiet but close to everything you need, with comfy beds and relaxed holiday charm. Wonderful experience with wonderful hosts, made us feel very welcome and looked after. Will book again!
Had a great time and we loved the property and the amenities. The place was comfortable and peaceful, close to the water with all that was needed for a lovely week away. Thankyou and we will be back again!

This is the third time we have now stayed at The Old Boathouse, we just love it!
Frank has done a wonderful job with this place, everything you could think of has been provided and it is kept immaculately.
Already looking forward to our next visit
We had a wonderful three night stay. The place is fantastic lots of room for a family. Kids loved the space downstairs and the kayak was a hit. Gardens and outside deck were stunning. Great local bakery and cafes. Close to everything.
We had a short stay in November 2023, we enjoyed it so much we had to return. The Old Boathouse is just great, it is all that it is promoted to be. Centrally located to the districts we enjoy exploring, we are more than likely to return again.

This is our second stay for our family at The Old Boat House and it was just as good as we remembered. The owners were really helpful and the house didn't disappoint our 3 kids.
Cheers

Thank you for taking the time to review the Old Boathouse. Hasten you back!
My family spent a week in the Old Boathouse and we had an amazing time. Very relaxing.
The veranda is fantastic to sit and watch the birds fly past you ( quite literally). Close to the lake and shops in a very quiet neighbourhood.
Definitely happy to come back.
Great stay at this well appointed property- very comfortable, very clean & lots of additional bonuses- we loved the spin in the kayak- just a short walk down the road. There was a massive, unprecedented storm- but no problems for us & prompt response with additional clean mid stay organised from the owner. Highly recommend.

The Old Boat House is a true gem, beautifully presented with an incredible eye for detail, we can honestly say that this is one of the best holiday homes we have ever stayed in.
We had a great week away, the area is quiet and relaxing but close enough to everything you could need with Ulladulla, Milton and Mollymook just minutes up the road.
We will certainly will be back...

Thank you. We look forward to welcoming you back for your next stay.
I booked this lovely property for my husband’s parents to stay whilst they attended our Daughters Wedding. It was as gorgeous as the photos in the add.
We’ll definitely be back to stay again as we didn't stay long enough to enjoy everything the home and surrounding area has to offer.
Quirky clean, spacious and well equipped home. We all felt very comfortable. Home away from home feeling. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Hope to stay at this
charming home again.
Top property. The house is well maintained and equipped and very comfortable with a short walk to the water and the Burrill shops (great fish and chipper there!). Would recommend for both families and those keen on water related activitied.
