A relaxing stay

We loved our holiday at number 1. The house was comfortable and stocked well with all our basic needs. The neighbourhood was quiet and we loved being able to bike down to the beach. The washing machine unfortunately wasn't working however communication with the real estate was prompt. We would definitely stay again!

A Much Needed Relaxing Time

Plenty of space, comfortable, great views and secure back yard. All the facilities you would expect to be included and a few more. Some really good walking trails & not far to Laurieton, Nth Haven shops, cafes etc. Notice the house had been painted since last time...good to see the ongoing maintenance.

Well-appointed getaway home

Spacious, comfortable home, with view of water, easy access to great walks. Kitchen very well equipped, with plenty of dishes and food preparation needs. Fantastic shower with plenty of hot water. Enjoyed the outdoor area at the back, with laundry plus extra bathroom facilities too. Easy to find, easy check-in with lock box. Great Wifi. The 'revolving pantry' is a super idea. Thanks for a great getaway. Just one suggestion - a mattress topper on the single beds would make for a more comfortable sleep :)

Great location can walk to Pilot Beach perfect for families and fury kids as well

Great location near Pilot Beach , Beds all comfortable and linen supplied makes it so easy to travel with less to bring along . And quality linen too with generous sized towels for each guest . Full laundry with Washer and Dryer was a great inclusion as it was a wet weekend. Ceiling Fans in each bedroom made the humidity much easier to sleep . As well as the inclusion of a Dyson fan and 2 fan Heaters to use in the living areas when the nights got cool . Heated the living space very well. The only disappointment is that the downstairs bedroom area has no access to the bathroom . It had a very strong smell of dampness and obviously the amount of rain lately it’s understandable. But was not a space that we felt comfortable using for Adult guests and teenagers in our group . Bathroom access in the middle of the night would involve exiting the only entry and exit via a sliding door in the converted Garage entry . And entering into the House via the front door . So a little awkward for nighttime bathroom needs . The extra Shower and Toilet in the Laundry is convenient for a bigger families, but again not easy for Guests in the downstairs bedroom area . Dunbogans Take Away Shop and Bottle Shop has been renovated great location ti grab Take away and Wine etc and bread and milk and other essentials rather than running into Laurieton. As well as the Boat Shed just up the rRoad has great coffee and kids can feed the fish.
