Great family accommodation

A quiet property that was enjoyably to stay at. Great for a family, the boys played backyard cricket and the kitchen had everything we needed to make a meal.Only criticism was the queen size bed was very firm to sleep on, the bbq needed a good clean and there was no hot tub like advertised.

Great cottage to rest and relax, enjoy a book in the garden or stroll on the beach which was just a few metres away at the end of the quiet street. We thorough enjoyed our stay and will look to revisit if we get the chance.

Quiet location with views of the water and Maria Island

The house was wonderful and had plenty of space for us to enjoy. The yard was large for us to be able to play with our grand children. The view from the house to the water was great and to also see Maria Island. We will definately stay here again.

Holiday home.

It was very comfortable. Quiet and peaceful. It suited three adults very well but would be excellent for a family. We used it as a base to go to Maria island. Our stay was only two nights but if you stayed longer then the outdoor areas would be great to relax in.
