A great property with adequate space for the four of us in a quiet location. The house was well equipped with all basic requirements. Easy access to all the beaches and amenities by car. A book for reference would have been helpful when operating appliances and local attractions etc.

Beautiful tree house escape

We had a wonderful time at the Pines and we will definitely be back. Backing onto the national park was a real highlight as we loved the wildlife. The house is fantastic and perfect for a young family, although could do with a bit of TLC around some of the fixings and blinds. Overall experience was great and can’t wait to go back.

Quiet and spacious. Designed for maximum air flow. A short drive to horseshoe bay. A small amount of maintenance required in the bedrooms. Otherwise it was great.

The villa lacks maintenance

The architecture is very beautiful, the location is ideal if you have a vehicule but the exteriors are neglected and the furniture has aged a lot. We won't be returning

Excellent stay at this magnificent 5 star home. Well appointed with everything you could ask for and so quiet we had Koalas on our doorstep.

STUNNING.

Beautiful house; well set out with large verandahs and plenty of natural ventilation. Everything thought of. Loved the claw foot bath with the views to the natural bush setting.

Loved this property.

Just had a wonderful stay at the Pines, lovely house, really well laid out. The high quality kitchen fitout made meals a breeze. Nestled among fragrant pines and maximising the cool breeze this house was wonderfully comfortable. We would definitely book it again.

Close to nature!

What an amazing house, nestled next to a pine forest & we thoroughly enjoyed the bird song, possums at night and the openness
