Relaxing

Great location. The enclosed yard was great for our little dog Private despite it being on the main road. Only negative was that the lawn hadn’t been mowed for quite some time so the grass was very long. It was a shame because everything else was fine.
Stayed 7 nights in Feb 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 7 March 2025
We are sorry about the lawn John. We rely on our cleaner to let us know when to get it mowed since we don't live locally. We will get onto that now and rest assured if you visit again it will be done. It usually is, but must have grown rapidly with all the rain we've had.

Top spot

Great location, easy stroll across to beach & local convenience store or bowlo. A real fishing shack with neat renovations that add all the family holiday essentials like a wrap around verandah, full size fridge, fans, big comfy bed, washing machine & dryer. Huge fenced backyard, ideal for dogs & close to stunning off-leash beach. Friendly locals, unforgettable views, perfect for long beach walks

Great escape with pups as well

We had a great time at “The Broom” - one of the local gems around the Maclean area. The hosts were very welcoming and responsive and the place was exactly what we needed. Was so appreciative to be able to bring the pups along for the relax at the beach. Looking forward to next time. Cheers Jo, Alex, Figgsy & Cha Cha Charlie 🐶🐶

We always love visiting Brooms Head, have been going there for over 20 years, it was a lovely holiday. Located across from the beach, lovely shady trees at the front also providing privacy for the front deck. The accommodation was good, however we provide some observations with good intentions as they are all superficial and easy to address: - upon arrival the home was not locked, front doors were open- it was not very well cleaned, counter tops were greasy, ceiling fans dusty- crockery was not washed well, coffee cups all had coffee/tea marks. - a lot of cockroaches that came out at night, we purchased cockroach baits to get rid of them- no dishcloths to wash up with, we purchased some along with other cleaning productsOur first day there we spent cleaning the cupboards, crockery and cutlery. The tops of the fridge and cupboards above the food-prep area was covered with dust grease and cockroach pooh. Once we cleaned this up everything was good and our stay was comfortable.The advertisement stating ‘dog friendly’ is misleading. The manual for home usage provided explains that dogs are not allowed inside and are required to stay outdoors. This was disappointing to learn, we would not have booked this accommodation if this was known upfront. Also, there are various locations where the dog can escape the yard or go underneath the home which we had to block off. Lastly, there is nowhere to store belongings/unpack suitcase. All cupboards are full/locked.

Hi Melissa, Thanks for taking the time to leave detailed feedback. We’re glad you enjoyed Brooms Head and the beachside location. We’re sorry you were disappointed on arrival. We use a professional cleaner after each stay and have followed this up, tightening our pre-arrival checks (including crockery, supplies and high-touch surfaces). We also maintain annual pest control and will organise an additional treatment. On pets: we do welcome dogs, with the standard expectation they’re kept off furniture and managed appropriately indoors. There’s ample space for them to rest in the large back room and on the deck. We’d appreciate clarification on where you felt a dog could escape the yard. This is a traditional raised beach cottage and there is accessible space underneath the house, which is typical for this style. Pets won’t get stuck under there, and we recommend supervising dogs in the yard at any unfamiliar property. Re the door being unlocked on arrival: thanks for flagging this. We’d been in shortly beforehand to allow the air-conditioning technician access and hadn’t realised it was left open. We’ve added a final lock-up check to our changeover routine. Lastly, storage is limited (as in many original cottages) and one cupboard is locked for owner supplies; we’ll make this clearer in the listing. Regards Sam and Helen

Lovely beach cottage

My husband, myself and our little dog stayed for 7 nights in this renovated cottage which was well stocked, clean comfy and an excellent location. I can’t fault the house but there were 2 things that were misleading in the initial ad. Firstly, the ad stated pet friendly but it was only after I paid in full that the owner sent a manual stating pets outside only. This should be stated clearly on the ad as the majority of pet owners have dogs inside with them. Secondly, we were looking forward to watching movies at night, but were unable to access Stan, Netflix etc unless we signed in with our own account. We don’t have these channels at home and did not want the hassle of joining. This is the only place we’ve ever stayed in where this has happened. Overall though, we enjoyed our stay.

Hi Vanessa I thought we made it clear that your pets could stay in the large back bedroom with you on the tiled area as long as they don't get on the bed or furniture. There is also a roofed verandah which is a good spot for Pets, and a large doghouse. Anyway glad you enjoyed your stay. Regarding the movie platforms, it had never occurred to us that this would be a requirement as we have WiFi and most guests just log into their own, but good to note. Thank you.

The house exceeded expectations, everything we needed was there. Only 2 of us, but it could comfortably cater for up to 8 people! We used the outdoor shower and dunny every day and appreciated the fully equipped kitchen and board games. The location was excellent for walking the dogs which we enjoyed twice a day. A wonderful holiday for everyone.

Our Anniversaries

I'm not good doing anything online but this turned out to be easy. Great information from the owners. We weren't clear about the linen but when we realised we didn't have to make up the beds, that was a little bonus. Only one drawback and that was the outhouse toilet which didn't turn out to be much of a hassle. All in all we loved our stay and would love to return.
