We had an awesome 4 night stay here with our little dog, our Son and our daughter for 2 of the nights. The property was everything I had hoped it would be. The communication was awesome and super speedy right from the beginning. Location was a short drive to the beach, but the area was lovely, quiet and with lots of bush around. A really tranquil vibe in the home and around it.A great space for a group or even 2 small families. Great extra lounge which we didn't even need/use. Awesome house.

Gorgeous property

What a beautiful property full of established trees and planting. We enjoyed listening to and watching the birds as we drank our morning coffee. Plenty of room, very tidy and well thought out spaces. Loved the underfloor heating as it was a chilly night when we arrived!
