An excellent property full of charm, perfect for the 3 of us and a little dog. Spacious accommodation with dvds, books and scrabble for rainy days and beautiful walks in the national park on sunny days.

This is a lovely property with modern conveniences, with a well stocked kitchen and loads of books, magazines, DVDs and streaming entertainment to make your stay easy and relaxing.

A gorgeous piece of paradise

We had a truly beautiful stay. The house is divine with beautiful views. It’s a lovely peaceful neighbourhood around with great walks, nice coffee and friendly locals. Special mention to the gorgeous Kookaburras who visited each afternoon. Great communication with the host. With much gratitude, we will be back.

Lovely decor and outlook

Spacious house with tasteful decor and lovely leafy outlook with water view. Well supplied kitchen with all utensils and a basic selection of condiments. Wifi was down for most of our stay. Lots of mozzies when we stayed (January) which meant we tended to avoid eating out on the deck - mozzie coils would be appreciated. Bring your aerogard. Also a lot of clunking noises on the roof from dropping gumnuts and branches through the night

Very nice but

This house is very comfortable and the view is wonderful. Wagstaffe is probably among the best parts of the overpopulated central coast but many would forgive that for the views and access to the water.I found the stairs inside the house very challenging. One set has no railing to hold onto and the others to the laundry were very very steep. At 78 and with a weak left leg these were bordering on dangerous for me and I wish I had known before I spent over 2000 to stay there.It was also difficult with my dog because there were few places for her to walk or relieve herself, particularly given the threat of ticks, with or without tick protection, The standard of the house is very high in every other way and overall I was glad I had the experience, despite leaving a day early.

Easy to relax

We couldn't fault this property or the booking process. The house includes a very well-stocked kitchen and comfortable furnishings. The view is the cherry on the top - so relaxing to sit in the lounge or on the roomy deck and just gaze out.

Bliss

This place is a serene escape in a beautiful location overlooking Hardy Bay - shared only with nature and numerous Bush Turkeys. The house is generously spacious and provides for every need - particularly in the exceptionally well equipped kitchen. The beds are very comfortable and the shower is powerful.. ! This is a place to return to.
