We had a fantastic stay, I was looking to stay at a place to create family memories for my six grandchildren and this worked out perfectly! The close proximity to the beach which was a short walk along a bush track was the highlight the kids loved it. Also toasting marshmallows around the fire, and enjoying the musical instruments were a hit as well. It was relaxing, the house had everything we needed and had a lovely feel about it. We plan on going back in the future and will look forward to that

We all LOVED our stay here! The house is really well set up to have a large group staying. The decking over split levels are visually stunning and add flexibility of usage. The bedrooms are generous in size - if it's just a family staying as we were, the lowest level makes for a huge, private space for adults. There are two large living spaces, one with our favourite feature, a tennis table :). The grounds are generous and well maintained, the beach and river only minutes away on foot. Very peaceful and nature really the only sounds to be heard. We wouldn't hesitate to return. Thanks very much to the wonderful hosts
