Stay at Darby St Hideaway
The house had very few cleaning appliances, we had to buy our own dishcloth. The hot plates and toliet seat were slightly broken. However the location was very good and overall was fine.

Staying in Cooks Hill for the Rising Tide coal blockade
At the centre of a range of restaurants and cafes but close enough to Horseshoe Beach. Parking was OK. We had trouble opening the electronic front door lock for two reasons: 1. The automatic light switched off before we had time to complete the process of opening the door. A person on their own needed three hands, one to hold the door handle, one to punch the codes, one to hold the mobile phone's torch 2. It took us a long time to understand that unlocking won't happen unless you pull the door handle towards you to ease the friction in the lock. Robyn's instructions could be edited for the simple minded like us to say "pull the door handle towards you until the lock releases" instead of the correct but obscure 'pull the keypad towards you'. This said, Robyn responded quickly to our cries for help, thank you, and all the best. Nick & co.

Clean and comfortable
Robyn's place is clean and comfortable and we had a lovely stay. Lots of lovely restaurant and cafe options right on the doorstep and a short walk to the beach - it's a great location! The only downside is it's a little on the noisey side but a tradeoff for staying so close to all the fun.
