Property was very spacious and comfortable. Kitchen was well equipped. Beds were very comfortable. Airconditioning heated up the property well and showers were nicely hot on a very cold morning. The only small criticism was that tv remote in kitchen seemed to be not working...new batteries needed perhaps?

Well-positioned property with lovely ocean views from the top deck and an easy walk to both the beach and local shops. The home features a generously sized, fully fenced yard perfect for dogs. Inside, the house is spacious, comfortable, and well appointed, with everything we needed for our 2.5-week stay.

Beautiful home in a great location

Loved our stay at the Smithy. The photos don’t do it justice. Great location close to the beach and with the shops in walking distance. We loved sitting out on the deck enjoying ocean views and majestic sunsets.

We booked The Smithy from 9th - 11th January & loved it so much we decided to stay another 2 nights! Friday afternoon when we arrived it was super hot so we opened windows & doors & popped the air-conditioner on while we unpacked the car. By the time we’d unloaded everything it was beautiful & cool inside. The Smithy is a beautiful & spacious home. Heather (our host) had thought of everything from garlic crusher to throw rugs, games & books for the kids, BBQ much more to make our stay enjoyable & exceptional!It’s a short walk to the beach & short drive to the boat shed, shops, Narooma & Moruya. We are already talking about staying again!
Fishing at the boat shed.
More fishing - boys caught a flat head each!

Lovely holiday

The house was clean and almost fully renovated. It could be improved with wifi provision and towels (which there was some confusion on the internet listing about). Overall though, it was a great place to stay.

Tuross holiday

Obviously a much loved holiday home. The current renovations are good but the master ensuite definitely needs an upgrade. Good supplies in the kitchen and laundry was a bonus. The outside entrance could be less cluttered to make it nicer to relax there at the table. The kitchen stools were unusable due to wrong sizing. 2 of the tvs we were unable to get to channels available. The lounge one was good though and a good sitting relaxing area. Great to have an accessible driveway as we had a trailer with kayak We had never been to Tuross Head before and loved the quiet fishing village.

Spacious and well appointed house

We were pleasantly surprised by the size of the property, with plenty of living space inside and good outdoor amenities too. The house is in close proximity of the beach and elevated to enjoy some limited views of the coast, including Montague Island. Given the house does not feature air conditioning, we would recommend ensuring more fans are available, as there is only one mounted in the dining room ceiling, otherwise a small portable one, which made for some slightly uncomfortable evenings, although we were fortunate to experience mild weather. The pantry appeared well stocked, however on closer inspection we found many items had expired many years ago, so close attention to this is recommended. For anyone who still watches terrestrial TV (as opposed to streaming), the television reception is very poor, likely because the antenna cabling has been split to too many TVs (there are four in the house). Despite these minor quibbles, we would certainly recommend this house and Tuross Head more generally, as we had a wonderful time staying there.

Perfect for what we wanted

This property is in an excellent location and equipped with everything you need. The ocean is just 2 mins walk at the end of the street. You can walk to the local shops in less than 10 mins. We booked this house so we could easily walk to the Dawn Service on Anzac Day with my in laws who are older and it was perfectly located for the memorial and the club afterwards. Inside the house, the fenced garden and dog friendly layout (easy to close off back part of house completely to keep dog in main lounge/kitchen area) was great. House is clearly regularly used by owners and had some ‘stuff’ in kitchen and bathroom cupboards etc. This could annoy some people but it was fine for us. Biggest issue we had was lack of wifi. Unbelievably, there wasn’t any. It’s my fault for not checking the listing properly as it doesn’t state there is any wifi. I just assumed it would be there. We run our own business and sadly, totally switching off is never an option! We managed to hotspot from our phones but it was a pain and we burned a lot of data. Just be aware of this. Would rent again.
