We had a great stay at Elspeth's place, it's got everything you need and more, a beautiful home and base to explore the area. Elspeth as a fantastic host, responding to questions quickly and always helpful.
Lovely spot to relax and enjoy the beach. House well equipped, clean and everything you need. Short walk to the shops (7-10 mins)and 5 minute drive to no 1 beach. Highly recommend.
This is a holiday beach house which is clean and has everything you need. Includes a dishwasher, washing machine.A walk to the local shops.Tyoical Venus Bay with a dirt road, so drive slowly and respectfully to keep the dust down. For visitors to Venus Bay, it is lovely. We will be back again.
We have stayed at a few properties in Venus Bay. This was was perfect. Not too big, not too small. Felt like a holiday home, not just a house.
The host was brilliant with communication all the way through.
Clean, modern, good location, comfortable beach house with lovely furnishings. Bassketball ring outside was a hit as was looking for the resident wombat. Bottle of champange upon arrival was a nice touch. Wood fire heater was also a hit.

Jackie and her family were excellent guests. Highly recommend and welcome back any time. Thank you for coming to stay.
The host was so helpful and answered all my questions so quickly. She went above and beyond with check in and check out, along with assisting me and my friend who were bringing a baby on this holiday. Would 100% recommend this specific holiday house and host. Will definitely be coming back. Cannot fault at all. So thankful we chose Venus bay and this accomodation for our girls (plus baby) trip! Thank you will never be enough for all the help we were given. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year for our amazing host and her family!
We had a great time at Elspeth’s place. The communication and check-in was super easy and detailed and Elspeth was vey quick to respond to our questions and also provided us with some great local knowledge that we otherwise may have missed.
The gorgeous house is very conveniently located and is within an easy walk to the main beach and shops. The house is also spacious (especially with 2 teenage boys), extremely tidy and contained everything we needed, it really is a home away from home.
Thank you Elspeth for a wonderful memorable stay at Venus Bay, we would definitely stay here again!
A gorgeous place to stay - It was very welcoming with lots of lovely little touches. Wifi really good and it was lovely and clean. Location was also good as it was walking distance to town centre & beach #1. The host was amazing- very helpful with quick responses to my questions.
Thanks Elspeth for your hospitality. The house was lovely and we really appreciated the late checkout on the final day. Well appointed and nice extras - food, DVDs, etc. Thanks so much.
The house was immaculate and extremely comfortable. Arrangements were seamless, and the owner a pleasure to deal with. Great location walking distance to the shops, surrounded by greenery. I would definitely return. Highly recommend.
This was a really lovely spot in Venus Bay. It’s a beautiful house, very comfortable for my parents, my husband and I and our little boy. All the amenities you could want and handy extras (bbq, pantry items, toys for kids, high chair, books). Great kitchen for cooking up meals. 15 mins walk to beach 1. General Store short walk away as is play ground. Elspeth was great to communicate with. Would love to return in future! (And even had a visit from a wombat!)
