Kataway was a great retreat property, awesome deck overlooking the bush and Myall Lake, Sunsets were really good from the deck.Had a couple of minor issues, contacted the owner and he was excellent. I would book here again without thinking twice.

Wonderful to stay in a house that is lived in, with all its nuances and foibles, rather than a perfect but ultimately soulless showroom model.

Lovely holiday house vibe

Great stay. Comfy, spacious, well-equipped house with beautiful views over the lake and lovely breezes. Close to Seal Rocks and Smiths Lake but it's very nice to just lounge about on the deck.

Relaxing stay

Lovely home with great views. Ideal to enjoy Barrington coast, lake water activities and sea. Clean and with all you need for a great stay. Just need some blackout curtains if you’re planning to sleep in.

Unique place with style that feels like a home away from home

We really enjoyed our stay. There are some many things special about this place that you could see that the house was well loved and well cared for - a lot of "treasures" to discover as well with great CD and book collections. Thank you for opening your home for others!

Weekend away

Great house! It has a lot of character and is really comfortable. Unfortunately we had a lot of rain and didn't get the opportunity to enjoy the deck enough but the fireplace made up for it. A lovely comfortable house with lots of space.

Amazing, peaceful location.

We spent two nights at Kataway with a group of friends for some much needed relaxation. The house was well stocked for cooking and the deck was the best spot to hang out. Perfect location, close to Neranie, Seal Rocks and Bungwahl. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds were very comfy, with beautiful views (either to the lake or garden). The house would be great in winter or summer. We will definitely visit again.

Family Getaway

Great place, quiet location, drive to lots of beaches, coffee machine a great bonus. Kitchen is fully stocked, great cooking facilities. Deck is amazing for drinks and watching the sunset. We enjoyed our stay, 4 adults 2 teenagers & 2 kids all comfortable here and downstairs is wonderful for the kids to get away from the adults. Only negatives are the ceiling fans only run on low and it does get quite hot upstairs in the afternoon and no curtains on the downstairs bedrooms.

Great family vacation spot!

We stayed as a family of 6 plus grandparents and had a great time. Kataway is in a lovely peaceful position, the balcony has gorgeous views of the lake. The house is spacious and has a couple of living areas and the kitchen was well equiped with a nice coffee machine in addition to the Nescafé one. Great location for water activities (we were here in winter so didn’t apply). Lovely area for runs or walks in the national park. No wifi or streaming services but the teenagers survived admirably.

Amazing views and very comfortable accommodation

All of my family loved how serene and beautiful is position of the house. Extremely private, at the same time close to everything you might need. We went snorkelling to the Boat Beach 10 min down the road and saw Green Turtle! House is extremely well equipped , we cooked both nights. Books and board games galore! We stayed in August, so wood fire burner was keeping the house really warm and cosy. Thank you, Nathaniel
