Comfortable space
Short family break, managed to read two books from the house. Also managed to trip the fuse and then couldn't find the fuse box. Very sorry about that.

A nice pet friendly getaway
We wanted a getaway somewhere quiet over the Xmas week with our small dog, that had a secure yard, and was walking distance to the beach. All above was ticked off with this place. What we didn’t like - we expected the place to be spotless due to the reviews (it was definitely not), a decent size fridge (& clean), a TV that could pick up all free view channels as a minimum (but preferably a smart TV) & decent kitchen knives (as we stayed 6 nights). If I was to be picky, I’d prefer cotton sheets/doona covers over the thin polyester ones provided (good to know if you’re like me). That said, the BBQ is excellent and the deck is a great place to relax in the afternoon sun, & our dog had the best time with plenty of outdoor space.

Distance to intended location grossly incorrect
When looking for accommodation for our fishing trip to Hollands Landing the advertised distance was approximately 10km, we presume that is a straight line distance across lakes etc Actual driving distance is 100km+ Can you imagine our disappointment

Home comforts
A great little house to stay with the family. Our second time here and we enjoy the comforts of familiarity. Easy to find location and walking distance to the shop and playground. The kids played in the freezing cold ocean so a nice hot shower, and heating was very welcoming.
