Fantastic beach house

Clean, tidy, comfortable and fully appointed. Close to the beach, cafes and restaurants. We had a fantastic time and cannot wait to go back for another few days away. We cannot recommend Orford Beach House highly enough for a stress free getaway.

The best thing was the view of Maria Island from the back deck and main bedroom window. Late check out is also appreciated. Ice cream shop (Sweets) across the road was excellent to discover just before closing time. The Orford Beach House is well set up and would be a great place to stay for a week. We only had two nights. I would come back again with more time next time.
