We were a group of six women who spent three nights at The Beach Nest. Our days were filled with hikes through the beautiful Bouddi National Park. The house was very comfortable clean and warm. The views were spectacular.We cooked all our own meals and the kitchen had everything we needed. The log fire was also an unexpected treat. We highly recommend a winter stay here.

Beautiful beach retreat

We came for a family escape mid winter. The house is really lovely, spacious and very thoughtfully set up. The log fire was perfect for the cold evenings as we watched the light fade on the beach. Would be great to visit in the summer next time! Highly recommended.

Nest@Killcare was the perfect house for our girls weekend. Plenty of beds for 6 adults, quality linen supplied, well stocked kitchen, dining table and chairs for 12. Perfect for our lunch that was planned for our special occasion Open planned lounge looking out to a beautiful view. Whales spotted! Combustion fireplace created plenty of warmth Can't fault this house. Thank you Anna for making this booking a breeze!

Wow. What a fabulous place to stay!

I stayed with a group of 4 couples over a beautiful sunny May weekend. The house was perfect, with plenty of space to spread out - on the lovely deck in the afternoon, and by the fire in the evening after cooking up a feast in the well-supplied kitchen. It was a short walk to the beach. We plan to return!

We stayed at the Nest for my husband’s 60th birthday and it was perfect for a small group. The view is stunning and the house has everything you need. It is beautifully presented and Anna was super accommodating and helpful. We will be back.

A magical place for a magical weekend - our son's wedding! The view is breathtaking, very comfortable home supplied with just about everything you could want. We found it hard to leave and will be back. Highly recommend for families. Quite a few internal stairs which keep you fit!
