Thank you so much for your lovely words – “a treasure” is exactly how we feel about Dolphincove, and we’re delighted it felt that way for you too. We take great care to keep the cottage clean and well equipped, so it’s wonderful to hear it let you simply relax and enjoy the view across Jervis Bay. We hope you’ll come back and spot a few more dolphins from the deck. Warm regards, Gerald
