Very nice. Quite unique. Well fitted out.Loved the birdsong.Bath and shower were very welcoming.Well chosen tableware.Great location , very central within Golden Bay.
The host made us feel so welcome from the start and the property was such a dream. We didn't have the best weather, but our stay was still so magical. It was a place we can't wait to come back to for an extended stay in the future!
We had a great time at the property. Who wouldnt?Beach life at its best. Fishing and riding from 7 to 70's.Lazy days. Busy days.Fum days.Perfect in every way.
The place was clean and tidy, well set up for a large group. Sadly my Dad and I arrived late at night so didn’t get to really experience the property much but I could imagine it being a wonderful escape for a big family or group of friends to enjoy. Walking distance to shops, cafes and the local pub/restaurant as well as the Farewell Spit tour company (which is why we were late arriving). Great backyard and access to water for kayaking or swimming. The hosts were quick and thorough in their responses so I felt good about booking with them.
