Good 'old school Aussie' holiday accommodation. Property has a beautiful location with terrific outlook over Shoal Bay from balcony. Shoal Bay is a magic place. Pity the Country Club Pub has gone 'modern' but understand why. I loved it when kids ran around the pub garden 'high on fire engines'.

Nice View
The property is in a great location and has a lovely view. The property itself is very tired and dated and is long overdue for an update. The toilet cistern continually runs and the TV stand blocks the view of the TV.
