Fantastic spot to stay. Great for the young kids with the pool and tennis court so close. Clean, tidy and has everything you need. Host was extremely accommodating and easy to chat with. Highly recommend if you are after a quiet and easy going place to stay.

A well equipped town house. Clean and beds were comfotable. Good amenities, I loved being able to fish off the jetty only 50m from town house. Thank you for a lovely relaxing getaway.

Thanks for the review, we're glad you enjoyed your stay and hopefully caught a few fish for dinner.
Hope to see you again soon.
The property was very clean. The owners have great communication and readily available and helpful. Great quiet location for a relaxing vacation. The tennis court and pool are an added bonus for the kids to hang out. Enough room for a family of five. Would recommend for a place to stay.

Thanks for your review. We are always happy to have return guests who appreciate our house and facilities provided.
Hope to see you again soon.
We had a wonderful stay at The Moorings. Peaceful and access to all amenities. The kids enjoyed feeding the ducks and although it was a bit too cool to swim, they still had fun sitting by the pool. The wine and chocolates were a bonus too! Would definitely come back.

Glad to see you enjoyed the area and the house, but I can re-assure you the house was clean the day before you arrived as it was done by us. I have to admit the 2 pillow protectors which were dirty were under the doonas and that has been rectified but there were plenty of other for you to swap. Regards
Our family enjoyed a lovely mini-break at The Moorings, a beautiful and inviting family home with enough space for our family of 4 plus 2 grandparents. Everything was so convenient - the adjacent tennis court, the swimming pool that overlooked the inlet and the jetty that was a stones-throw from the property and the perfect place for our children to practice their fishing skills! The owners provided recreational gear such as board games, dvds, bikes and tennis rackets - thank you so much for creating such a lovely option for future holidays.

You need to turn on hot water once arrived, and the hot water will heat up overnight.

The layout of the house was good, and the use of the pool and tennis courts was great. It has a relaxing feel about it and it is quiet. Some things in the house weren't very clean like the dishwasher, the coffee jar in the pantry expired in 2020, lounge was dusty and not even a full roll of toilet paper for 6 people. (the owner did apologize about the toilet paper). The bikes have no brakes. The owner gave a good tip on how to get the gas to work for the BBQ.
