Perfect family holiday home

We were very happy with the location of this holiday home. It was just a short walk to both the beach and the shops and restaurants. There were lots of sleeping options which suited our family of toddlers to Grandparents. The covered outdoor deck is great and being fully fenced was also a bonus with young children. The property was clean and tidy and provided everything we needed and we can highly recommend this home to others.

Good place to stay

Enjoyed the bach - easy access and good tidy house. Very friendly neighbours, which is excellent as the access is through their front yards. Outdoor shower was good for post-beach. Heat pumps were used on the hot sticky days.

A lovely traditional little bach. Loved having the second TV room and the aircon was hugely appreciated! Awesome location. Carolyn was very approachable and accommodating. We would happily stay here again.

Handy location

Really good stay. Very handy to beach and shops. The weather got quite cold, so it would have been nice to have an inside dining table as well as an outdoor table. Very grateful the dog could be accommodated. Thanks very much.

Everything we needed for a special beach break

We stayed 3 nights at this property with our 4 and 1 year old. It is very spacious, set up with everything we needed and in a prime location. My kids loved the outdoor shower, eating outside on the covered deck, bunk beds and flat driveway for riding their bikes. My husband and I loved the full kitchen, dryer, air conditioning and smart tvs. The house is a short walk to the beach and shops. We would absolutely stay again.
