It was everything it claimed to be. Great moments with the kids (well stocked games cupboard) and the fire instantly sets the mood. Very secure rear yard - meant we felt safe leaving the dog here and she loved it too. Very close to excellent takeaway and beach location (including dog beach).If you like the old-skool vibe we'd recommend this place.

Thank you for your wonderful review! It’s great to know the games cupboard kept the kids entertained, the fireplace added that cosy touch, and your four-legged family member enjoyed the secure backyard too!
We’re pleased you loved the convenient location, with the beach and fantastic local takeaway options just a short stroll away. The classic old-school charm of the property is something we appreciate, so it’s lovely to hear it was part of what made your stay memorable.
Thank you again for staying with us - we’d love to welcome you, the kids, and your pup back for another relaxing getaway in the future!
Regards

This is one of the best beach shacks we've every stayed. Has everything you need and close to the beach. Is also styled in possibly the greatest ocean/nautical theme. Would 10000% stay again!

The listing clearly said WiFi and Smart TV and neither were at the property. Check out instructions were emailed at 12:01am on the day we left and were different to the instructions in literature at the property.
