Fantastic beachside holiday rental in a great location
My husband and I (and our doggie!) had a wonderful stay at Nans over Christmas this year. Megan is a fantastic host, super responsive and even left the fridge stocked with some tasty vegan goodies for us which was so thoughtful! We felt right at home from the minute we arrived and the house had everything we (and our doggie) could possibly need and more. We loved watching the sunset over the ocean from the comfort of the loungeroom each night. All the rooms were spacious with comfy beds and being pet friendly was a huge bonus for us too - this was a large factor in us choosing to stay at Nans. Perfect location within walking distance to both Austinmer and Thirroul beaches and heaps of great cafes and restaurants too - what more could you need? Thanks again for your hospitality Megan, we hope to be back soon!

Cosy Cottage in great location
Megan's house is a very comfortable older-style cottage in a great location right between Austinmer and Thirroul. It was very clean and full of thoughtful touches like an extremely well-stocked fridge and Easter eggs for the kids. Even the dog was provided for. Walking distance to dog-friendly beaches and easy reach of the NSW Coastline Cycleway. We had a number of great meals locally (Toro Sushiya in Thirroul was a standout). 100% recommended

Chellingworth Xmas 2020 family holiday.
The property is very clean and well maintained. Lots of locally produced food and drink in the fridge was a surprise bonus. Our retired greyhound, Slinky, loved the place as well. Megan was very attentive and gave us good advice on local services. It is only a short walk to either Austinmer or Thirroul beaches. Spectacular view to the beaches to the south.
