Very peaceful and isolated with very comfortable beds and furnishing. Good outlook over the countryside. The lack of a starter pack of coffee and tea was the only disappointment.
If you are looking for a new, clean, well designed, quiet and well located property, then this is it. The owner was very easy to deal with and this is great place to stay if you want to go to an event in Coffs Harbour.
Was working so couldn't spend time enjoying the place except for early in the morning when there was a wonderful chorus and little wrens coming up to the window. Had a great stay.
The place was the definition of a restful retreat. We loved overlooking the paddock with the horse! The house was well equipped and Philip the host was very responsive and helpful.
We had a lovely time at Phil’s property. Very convenient location to access all the beautiful towns and beaches around, and super close to Sawtell with lots of restaurants. The house was spacious and accommodating, with a beautiful view of the countryside and super accessible from the side road.
Situated in a peaceful, beautiful open space. Property was super clean and spacious. Carport and the big lawn at the front was a plus. Felt close to nature with all the greenery around. Kids loved it. Coffs Harbour is just 15 mins drive. Especially during school holidays when every accommodation in Coffs Harbour was super expensive and cramped, this ticked every box for us. Will surely return.

Everything was amazing. Next time we book we will opt for unit one as it doesn't have steps. My partner has trouble with steps.
