Cosy cottage

A perfect weekend getaway location. We specifically chose this gorgeous cottage for its proximity to the Merricks Store where we attended a wedding. It was as close as you can get, in easy walking distance. We were delighted with the cottage- it was cosy and warm (on a cold weekend). Lynda was very welcoming and responsive. The bed was extremely comfortable and all facilities were excellent. It is a great place for a girls weekend, with two lovely bedrooms.

Relaxing retreat

The property was as described. Old versus new, with the two blending together. Fantastic, peaceful beach location a short drive into Balnarring. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Coastal and cosy, this cute-as-a-button cottage offers unique character details and a functional floor plan that opens directly to the back deck and yard.

Love

We loved our stay. Our host was fabulous, very easy to liaise with. The property was perfect, lots of room, clean and quiet. The location was excellent - just across the road from the beach. We didn’t want to leave, and will be back another time.

Great family stay

We had a great stay, the house was in a great location, lots of space to relax and was well equipped. We didn’t realise that the bunk room doesn’t connect to the living areas via an indoor corridor. Wasn’t an issue as the kids could come out the other bedroom via the sliding door into the deck if needed at night.

Hidden gem

Perfect home away from home for our little family holiday. The kids had the best time and are already asking when we can stay again. Perfect walking distance to the beach and the general store. Will be booking again!
