About the host

Married couple with two children.

Why they chose this property

This property is so versatile for a quiet beach getaway for a couple or two relaxing on the deck which overlooks the water. Or a family escape with pool table and table tennis tables to entertain the kids. Also great accommodation if you are going on the Balgowan Fishing Charter as it's only a short walk to the boat ramp and beaches.

What makes this property unique

Balgowan offers great exploring options with the beach - either drive on the cliff side beach or walk on the southern side which provides a pontoon to swim out to in summer. Balgowan is well known for great fishing spots. There is walking tracks along the red cliff top.
