Loved the location, looking out over the ocean between two headlands watching whales head north. House was clean, with a well stocked kitchen, a large oven and induction cooktop. Communication was excellent and the welcome wine and chocolates were a lovely touch.

This is a stunning property. The ocean views are sensational and we could not ask to be closer to a pretty little protected beach for swimming. To top it all off, the village is just a five minute walk. We felt very much at home on the deck, watching whales and dolphins frolicking. We can’t wait to get back!

Stunning property and location!! The views from the home and deck are even better in person. Best location in Scotts Head in our opinion. The home had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and we will definitely be back. Best of all, it's pet friendly so our dogs could enjoy a holiday with us. Thank you!!

Beach with Dogs

Great property in a great position. We took our two large dogs and we all had a great time so close to the beach. Some ceiling fans would be good when it gets hot at night.

Stunning views

We had a brilliant stay! Lovely Beachy vibe house with amazing balcony and views. Loved having breakfast outside and hearing the waves crash. Well stocked kitchen, 2 dining tables, and ample space for 4 adults, a toddler and very happy doggy. We all had a great time and wish we had booked longer than 3 nights!!!

Wonderful week at Headlands

We really enjoyed our stay at Headlands. It is a cosy, welcoming cottage with a beautiful outlook located conveniently close to coffee shop and beach. The owners have ensured that all accommodation needs are met in every detail. The two dogs had a wonderful time too! We'll be back.

The location at headlands is second to none, absolute beach/headland unobstructed views. The house is perfectly suited for a small or large family and small dog. The house is clean, has all the amenities and the kitchen is well equipped. Contact with the owners and the check in procedure were a breeze. We will be back 10/10

Stunning location . Beautiful home

We have finished our week long stay at Headlands house. Set on a most stunning headland with amazing views. The house was beautifully appointed with all the amenities and space for the 7 of us to enjoy. The living area onto the huge deck made for relaxing daytimes , with the constant views. Our hosts were excellent! Prompt and friendly responses to all messages and a seamless check in/check out. Thank you ! We’ll be back !

Perfect Scotts Head location

The house location is idyllic and the huge deck makes the most of the outlook to the beach and headland. The house itself is very well appointed and the kitchen perfect for preparing big family dinners. Two bathrooms, one with a separate toilet means there is never a queue. The separate bedroom beside the entry was perfect for a young family who never had to worry that the 20 month old would wake the house through the night. Overall very homey feel and comfortable. Definitely recommend the house to a group looking to make the most of a stay in Scotts Head.

Great View, Great Location to Beach Cleanliness an issue, dirty floors, dead bugs, dirty oven, dirty fans, bins in bedrooms had not been emptied from previous guests, cupboard infested with ants. Note, although "pet friendly", it does not have a fenced yard.

Great house - what a view!

7 old girlfriends stayed here and we loved it. Beautiful views from the deck and house. Well equipped kitchen and comfy beds. Walking distance to town and beach but beware it is a hilly location. We loved Scott’s Head too!!! Thank you Christine
