Lovely house

We really enjoyed the quiet rural location close to the Prom. The house was lovely and spacious. John was very thoughtful in letting us know about a water issue which might have affected our stay but was fixed by the time we checked in.

Great spot

We are keen walkers so loved the location so close to the park and some great tracks! The house was very comfortable. It was a cool spot to escape the heat of the day. The bed was also super comfortable and it was so quiet that we slept well every night.

Be prepared

Our stay in Yanakie was lovely but difficult in that we were not travelling with extras such as international phone plans, ability to hot spot, extra towels, face cloths, hair dryer, shampoo, etc. Small pleasures that most VRBOs provide. Communication with the owner was difficult and after arrival at the house we had to drive many kilometres to get reception to call the owners who were busy and could not respond with the code. This could be easily solved by giving the code earlier than check in time. The house itself is an older farm house and we blew a fuse right away charging phones. We didn't figure out the fuse box for a day so had to use outlets in the laundry room until we figured it out. The fuse box being out side and around the corner. The bedrooms are nice and the beds are comfortable. The day beds in the main area need replacing.Despite the difficulties for the tired and unprepared, it was a lovely stay in the country. The owner graciously left us a bottle of wine which made the difficult parts better.

Peaceful stay near the Prom.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Homely feel with nice personal touches. We enjoyed some gorgeous sunsets on the veranda and walks to the inlet. We had four people stay so it was also good value.

Nice but expensive stay

We had mixed reviews on this place. It is a cottage, so don’t expect more. Although the host were very communicative. Left us a nice bottle of wine on the table. The fridge really needs to be replaced. After booking, we were told that we had to pay an extra 5 p/p for body towels. A great positive is that the beds were very comfy. The sink in the bathroom was not clean at all. Like I wrote before, mixed reviews. Way too pricy for one night.

Good rural location

This cottage is well equipped, unpretentious and perfect for a family vacation. So much space for kids to run around and make noise without fear of disrupting neighbours. The natural beauty of the location with just a short walk to Shallow Inlet is outstanding. There was an ongoing issue with the tank water which the landlord went to pains to remedy and kept us informed of what was happening. We also had an issue with the washing machine, but none of these things detracted from our enjoyment of the property or the beautiful area. Thanks John!

Family summer holiday

The property was large and peaceful, ideal for a relaxing family stay and close enough to Wilson Prom action for day trips. However, amenities were lacking—no washing powder, only one dishwasher tablet for four nights, limited hand soap, and no bath towels provided. As a city person, I wasn’t used to the smell of the tank water and had to buy extra drinking water. A few extra touches would enhance the experience.

Hiding from the Hectic

Wonderful place/space to spend time; particularly when the weather closed in. Family of four - lots of incidental spaces to read / do puzzles / ponder / not annoy your sister. Full size amenities - so easy to prepare meals / store food. Very easy access to Prom walks and Tidal River as well as the communities/townships around.

Middle of nowhere

The property did not meet the expectations set by the images provided. It was specifically noted in the amenities that Wi-Fi would be available, which was a key reason for our booking. Unfortunately, due to the lack of connectivity, we had to take leave from work, which incurred additional costs for us. We kindly request a prompt resolution and an accurate description of the property’s amenities in the future. Additionally, we observed that the property is quite old, which was not evident from the listing. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Intro to Wilsons Prom

We loved the cosey, clean and filled all the conforts of home. This cottage was easy to find and not too far from a grocery store and eateries. Not far from Foster and of ideal to get to Wilsons National Park. We highly recommend it. Thank you for the opportunity.

Inlet cottage

The cottage is comfortable and tastefully decorated, in a great location. Jennifer and John were fantastic owners, quick to respond and assist with everything. Our stay was way too short. We hope we can return one day.
