What a wonderful property. Very relaxing. Loved being literally right on the water, was like being on a houseboat without the rocking. Visits from the local seal was entertaining. Was fun catching fish off the deck even if they were undersized & released. All the stairs gave the legs a good workout when you are not used to them but probably a good thing to help work off the extra you eat & drink on holidays. Tuross heads is stunning, so many lovely beaches & magnificent views. Would love to come back again & stay at Red Box Cottage & bring a boat next time to Moore at front deck. Thank you so much for the stay.
