Great view and very well appointed cottage

Fabulous view and loved the log fire. Very well appointed cottage, spotlessly clean. The owner has thought of absolutely everything to ensure a relaxing and comfortable stay - even wine glasses in the freezer to keep them cold! Excellent value.

A lovely beachfront stay

A lovely place for one person (or two!) to stay, less than 5 minutes' walk from Park Beach with panoramic views. The accommodation is exactly as shown on the photos, with the addition of two outdoor loungers and an outdoor dining set, which were lovely to have. Fully functional kitchen, modern bathroom, split system for heating/cooling as well as a log fire. Lots of doors and windows with fly screens for natural circulation. I really enjoyed my stay and would recommend it.

Loved the view!

This is a great property that has everything you need...from supplies in the kitchen so you can cook a meal, to washing tablets to do laundry. The fire place in the middle of the room keeps the house warm and cozy, but it is spectacular views that we would come back for! We could have spent all day in the very comfortable bed, just watching the views, but with so much of Tassie to discover, alas, we didn’t! Fantastic couples retreat!

Loved our short stay !

Thoroughly enjoyed this location. Inside the house, it was immaculately clean and well presented, very homely feeling & cosy. Loved the fireplace and ample wood supplied. Bed & pillows were super comfy. Loved the views and managed to capture an aurora on one of the nights we were there. Overall a great experience and would definately recommend :-) Feedback: (* Cleanliness - 1 star deducted as the outside of the house & outdoor furniture had lots of cobwebs that could do with some attention to detail) (* Accuracy of listing - 1 star deducted as it should have been mentioned that there are steep steps to the house - also our car was unable to fit down the steep driveway... As we are older folks we found this quite challenging especially with our luggage)

Thank you for your review. I’m so glad that you enjoyed your stay, and even managed to see an aurora while you were there - what a special experience! Thank you also for your feedback and suggestions. I’m sorry that you didn’t feel confident driving down the driveway closest to the house. We’ve had many vehicles access the house via that driveway, including tradies’ 4WDs and even an ambulance on one occasion. I’ll talk to cleaning staff about keeping the cleanliness of the outdoor furniture, which can be a challenge to maintain at some times of year. Thank you again for your constructive feedback.

Absolutely a 10/10 review for this place. The views are spectacular and definitely a lot of planning has gone into the property to ensure absolute comfort. A definite recommendation to pick here if choosing a relaxing getaway. Can’t wait to plan our next trip and stay here again. I encourage all who stay to read the little book about the property in the book area and the amazing planning and thought that has gone into the retreat. Don’t hesitate, book this place now, also great ammenities and very clean kitchen/lounge area with a fireplace. My only concern if you’re reading this is hopefully your dates when booking don’t overlap with ours when we want to come back again!! Thanks for a great relaxing place to stay Grace. Oh, and PS I read in a review and your disclaimer of minor debris/cobwebs out the back due to beach conditions - I can honestly say the back of the property is in pristine condition also. And really peeps if you worry about such a minor detail booking this retreat that’s crazy as the view is at the front of the property. Thanks again so much for this stay Grace - an anniversary getaway we will remember and up there as one of the best❤️😊

A special place to stay.

Our three night stay was perfect. When we arrived and the place was lovely and warm with the air conditioner on. We loved the open fire that we used each night. The kitchen had everything we needed. The king size bed was really comfortable. Parking was off road and just outside the the back door. Oh and the view is amazing. Thanks for the chocolates a lovely treat. We would highly recommend this place.
