Very good

This was my second time staying here as i loved it so much last time, which was in spring. I love how this place is decorated and love the view. The rather hot and unusually still weather did draw attention to the lack of flyscreens and therefore lack of airflow / breeze at night as only a stand fan was provided. Would have loved to just open a few windows without worrying about mosquitos. Great place, i will visit again.

Reviewer Comments:
Great location - but very neglected by owners - which was a shame and annoying too. Broken door lock so couldn't open, broken junk in front of house, all outdoor furniture and window and window ledges were filthy; no toilet paper - just a half used packet of picnic serviettes in the toilet, etc; fridge not cleaned - so had mouldy food left in fridge; outdoor chairs and tables caked with weeks of dirt- so we had to do a lot to clean the place to use it. Only one cheap, broken pedestal fan in the house to cool 4 beds (we had 40 degree temp days)- and that fan had was missing the screw in the base - so couldn't stand up, etc.. Such a shame as a really nicely styled inside and fabulous spot and Lancelin is a great town.
Uninterrupted ocean views. Quaint little shack- not fancy but very tidy and comfortable. Can’t wait to come back

Very chilled and relaxed thanks. Once we got used to the dungeon keys access was fine. A few issues with the stove. Interesting vintage items for display. Cobwebs under the bed.

It was not as expected. The drive is very steep. 1 room divided. No kitchen curtain for privacy. Water in shower was a dribble. Too expensive for what it is. Great view.

In short awesome, legitimate old school beach shack full of charm and great views. my only disappointment was the shower didn't work, highly recommend, but ask about the shower before you book, I also found the property management to be curt in my dealings

Reviewer Comments:
The location was fantastic. Loved the quirky decorations. Trouble with the locks meant there was no security. Didn't like the mouse droppings on the couch and beds or having it munching away on stuff all night in the pantry cupboard, there were a few cockroaches as well. The place needs some attention to detail and TLC for the asking price.

Reviewer Comments:
Amazing location with spectacular view of the Lancelin bay.Quaint cottage, though certainly no mod cons.No air conditioner on 40degree days, no fly screens on windows, some doors did not open others did not lock.
The cottage was gorgeous, and very well thought out but the shower and toilet need renewing along with the water pressure in the shower. The access is terrible the way it’s designed it has scrapped the bottom of my car.
Traditional beach house - going back in time to how we used to stay/live by the beach. Simple, basic & refreshing. Great view, beach & the locals made our getaway great fun
Booking in the height of Summer, I was a little worried we'd be hot, but the sea breeze kept us really comfortable and the views are stunning - even from the shower!
This house is very rustic but unbelievably charming. We loved the vintage and retro collectibles and the beds were all really comfortable.
While the house is just one big room, the layout is well thought out and the four of us (2 kids) were very comfortable.
We did have issues unlocking some of the doors, but the property manager was extremely helpful and is organising new keys for the doors.
We will be back.
