Great little cottage, very private and so quiet. Beds were really comfy and the cottage was adorable. Theresa left us some bread, milk and condiments which was very kind. Highly recommend staying at the cottage, kookaburras on the lawn in the morning and thousands of stars to look at night !

Can thoroughly recommend. Everything was absolutely perfect. We could not have asked for anything to be improved except for perhaps an iron and a hair dryer. We found a loaf of bread , milk, jam etc. The house was beautifully clean and the presentation was superb. A perfect place to stay for an indefinite period of time. Many congratulations to the owners.

Very cute and clean cottage in a quiet pocket of the central coast only a short drive to the beach and shops. It was great to have the little extras provided like butter, milk and jams as buying this for a 1-day stay is a waste. Very thoughtful host. There's no WIFI but we knew that from the start and instead went old school with volleyball in the backyard and games at night.

It’s a very spacious, quite and clean place. The surrounding area is beautiful. We stayed for two nights and are really impressed by what we got. It has all the amenities we need, the host provided plenty of tea, coffee, snacks, fruits, and a loaf of bread with a variety of jam and spread. We would definitely go back if we need to stay in that area again.

This is a beautiful place to stay. Very clean, quiet and has everything you could need. Very spacious for a two bedroom cottage. The hosts were lovely, gave us space but were available if we needed them. Their attention to detail and country charm was spot on. Would definitely stay here again.

Gorgeous cottage, in a beautiful, quiet location on the Central Coast, away from all the hustle of summer holiday makers, but still close to everything.The house was immaculate, with wonderful touches like a load of bread with jams and spreads, and books to read.A place to come back to! Thanks for a wonderful stay.
