Great pet friendly accommodation with good location. Only downside really was the main tv only having abc and SBS which luckily are our preferred channels. Loved the coffee machine.

An excellent house for our family to stay in for a few days. A great space with everything we needed, a good provision of games for the kids, and we loved the firestove. A nice walk into town along the beach.

The host has thought of the little extras such as providing feminine hygiene products, other bathroom products and mini jams etc.Only thing we noticed short in supply was toilet paper.The house was clean and spacious.We enjoyed the area and saw many kangaroo both at dusk and during the day. The waters edge was a clean place to take the dogs with lots of swans to entertain them :-)
