Whales, dolphins, sea and birdlife abound. When present, the cows on the farm are a special treat. The front view takes in Seven Mile Beach, Black Head, the Crooked River and Berry Escarpment. The moon, stars and storms at sea, provide spectacular light shows over the ocean. The perfect place for relaxation. We regularly receive texts from guests on arrival, with the common theme of being "blown away" by the views and location as well as the Guests Welcome pack.

Spectacular Stay!
What a perfect place to stay for a weekend getaway! The house is absolutely gorgeous and has everything you need for a great weekend, from perfect views to a cosy fireplace when the rain tries to dampen your spirits. The views are spectacular and the house was neat and tidy, couldn't find a better place if you tried.

Hi Zoe, Thank you for your review. Yes sitting by the fire watching the ocean's many moods is a favourite winter past time. Amazing how long you can sit there and not notice the time passing. So glad you enjoyed your stay. We take great pride in presenting our home in the best light and ensuring our guests have a memorable stay.

Response from VrboOwner on 6 Mar 2020
Hi Deb and Friends, At times I have to pinch myself as I look out the bedroom window. To live here in Gerroa surrounded by the ocean is such a privilege. To share it with others adds to the experience ..love having the "girls" stay......."time off for good behavior".
The house was a delight. The entire family enjoyed themselves. Every corner and nook was tastefully arranged and designed. The two ocean views showcase different temperaments but are equally breathtaking.
Extremely well laid out with all amenities for a great stay - our best yet rental in Gerroa.
Nothing was a problem for the owners to arrange, and we all had a wonderful time and Christmas
