Another wonderful stay

Another stay at this wonderful dog friendly cottage. Park the car and put away the keys. Everything is within walking distance. Wonderful cafes and restaurants. Be sure to check out The Shelter Shed, The Oyster Bar, the Rolling Pins Bakery and especially the fresh of the boat seafood at Mi Shells Seafood in the harbour . Lots of wonderful walking tracks, the park and the beach. The cottage is clean, bright and comfortable and the new bathroom is gorgeous. Bedrooms provide a relaxing nights sleep, the kitchen is fully equipped for cooking and the outdoor area is perfect. Everything you need is here. Our host Kristin, is wonderful to communicate with, so kind and accommodating. Perfect stay.

What a wonderful cottage

A great stay with my two whippets. The cottage is welcoming, clean and comfortable. It’s in a great location. Only needed the car to get to dog friendly beach. Lots of parkland and walks, cafes and The Distillery. Communication with Kristin was excellent with all instructions on parking, entry etc easy to follow. Hopefully we will be back soon . Thank you for sharing this wonderful accomodation.
