Good Location, but some details can be improved

we spent the weekend at the Little Tara. The location is wonderful, 10 mins walking to Putty Beach (dog friendly beach), 10 mins walking to Bouddi National Park. The house is surrounded by natural bush, and also can hear the ocean sound at night, which is relaxing. The kitchen and lounge is nice. Has enough tools for cooking. Owner also provided many board games, sports equipment which are great for the kids. There are some details we think definitely can be improved. 1. it's advertised as Dog friendly house, however it doesn't have any fenced-up area. We have to lock our dog indoor or leashed him outside. We would expect a fenced area which is truly dog friendly. 2. there is a coffee machine, but no coffee pods. No tea bags too. Those little things doesn't cost a lot but can change the customer experiences 3. there are no basic toiletries items, even no hand wash liquid and tissue. Again, basic toiletries stuff, shampoo, body wash, body lotion can be refilled and doesn't cost a lot but definitely can give convenience to customers 4. be good to have some diffuser in the room. one bedroom smells a bit weird. and the house smell a bit old, maybe due to the wet weather. 5. linen are not included as advertised, but they have quilt cover and pillow case. so don't know what's the differences why not providing bed sheets. they are almost the same things. the mattresses are definitely for soft mattress lover. Overall, it's not bad, just need little improvement.

Nice location value for money

This cottage is all you need for this location. It is humble and offers enough space for 6 people. Although the third bedroom is more suited for kids, my friend and i, in our 60th, used it. The past reviews noted a broken and not fully operating blind in the bunk bedroom and the problem had not been solved yet. The 2 bedrooms with Queen bed in each are comfortable. 2 toilets were a plus in this cottage. Shower was very good. Outdoor table and area can only be used on a dry day. To access the beach, there is a short cut and it only takes 5 minutes. There are some very nice beach trails and bush walks to do and eatery wise, some cafes/restaurant/pub in Killcare. Voila!
