Great location

The house needs a bit of renovation, as the "old house smell" is still present until you get used to it in a few hours, but the location is excellent. Very large rooms and all local shops are literally 2 minutes walk away.

Super location

Stansbury was a super location for a short family holiday. The house is large and comfortable, we especially enjoyed sitting under the back verandah in the evenings, watching the sun go down. We also caught some fish (mullet) from the beach directly across the road from the house!

Great house for a family holiday

Gor-Jess is perfectly located with the jetty on one side and pub/shops at the front door. We had a lovely holiday with the kids with lots of room for all. Dishwasher is a bonus! Some basic condiments (salt, pepper, sugar, oil) for visitors would be good.

Hi Kiim, Glad to hear you had a lovely holiday. We will take on board your suggestions but unfortunately keeping condiments fresh all year can be a concern for us but we will look into it, Thanks. Hope to see you again. Regards Glenys
