Property was perfect for our pooches. It is one of the most well setup homes we have stayed at with everything you need for short stays. Beds were comfortable and everything really clean.The welcome bottle of wine was much appreciated , so thoughtful.
This is the best accommodation for us and our dog we have experienced. House is excellent and we felt very comfortable in the space. Area is perfect for us. Vrb booking system not easy and informed us wrongly initially that the house was not available
We had a lovely time at the property. It was very clean and well appointed. Location is great and it was awesome to have the ability to take the dog with us down south. Thanks again Lisa.
The house was fabulous, very clean, fully stocked with everything that we needed, very quiet location and close to the beach and easy walk to town. The dogs also had a fabulous time in a secure backyard and they had their own beds and bowls. I would definitely recommend and will come back again
Spacious property with everything you need included. The location is so convenient for town, beaches and activities. The house is very well kept and the garden perfect for our dog. Would thoroughly recommend this property and would love to stay here again.

Thankyou so much for your lovely comments. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Kind regards, Sharon
We thoroughly enjoyed our time there. All were able to relax and chill out; even the 4-legged member!We even had 2 youngsters of the blue-tongue lizards who are doing well with their fatty tail's visit daily. Day 1 we coerced them to safety, but next day they were back again where we discovered them If we don't get back to this place, then it will be another that Lisa manages.
An awesome home that ticked all the boxes for us as we have two small Maltese dogs. Lisa was a wonderful host and only a phone call away. We loved it and wished we could have stayed longer. Thank you Lisa.

Lovely property
This was a lovely place to stay with all that you need to make a good holiday. Only complaints was quality of mattresses - particularly in the main bedroom. I left with a very sore back.

Thankyou so much for letting us know about the mattresses. We have replaced them and hope everyone is comfortable from now on. Regards, Sharon
A quaint cottage style property; with quirky, inspirational quotes dotted throughout the house. Super quiet, everything we needed at the property, apart from a dishwasher! Short walk to the beach and quick bike ride into town. Lovely property.
We had a wonderful stay at Retriever Retreat and can highly recommend it. Very close to shops and beach. Very clean. Great host. Everything you could need in the kitchen and lots of games and puzzles. Very relaxing visit and we felt very at home here. We can’t wait to come back as there is so much to see and do in the area.
