"This is a quaint cottage,with everything that you could want.A great location and terrific area to visit.The dog loved it too!!!"

- Coral, -Nov '11

"very quiet and peaceful area"

- Mario, -Jul '11

"It was fantastic to have all child/baby furniture such as a portacot, highchair and stroller at the property as this meant we didn't have to bring our own. Great location to the beach and shops."

- Tammi, -May '11

"The cottage is beautiful. A tiny bit to little for us & our 2 children. My only concern was that you have to take your own rubbish to the local transfer station - which normally would not be a problem..."

"Easy walking distance to the beach. Quiet location where you could hear the waves crashing when it was stormy - whilst feeling toasty & warm with the fire going. Dog friendly location."

- Barbara, VICTORIA -May '10

"listening to the rain falling on the tin roof while taking an afternoon rest is an absolute bliss"

- Rex, VIC -May '10

"Very clean, cosy & lovely cottage in a safe & quiet little spot. The kids had a ball as they had their own retreat in the caravan at the back of the property. Close to beach & shops as well. The place..."

Cottage

The open plan living area has a wood heater and leads onto a large deck complete with hooded BBQ and teak outdoor setting. In each bedroom there is a double bed with a single bunk above.
Features include polished jarrah floors, new kitchen, microwave, TV DVD/video/CD player, reverse cycle a/c and front loading washing machine.

The gardens include a pop up caravan equipped with it's own TV, video and undercover deck in case the kids need their own space, and it is only a short stroll to the patrolled beach or shops.

The cottage is baby friendly with a port-a-cot, high chair, baby bath, pram and baby/toddler swing readily available.

Well behaved pets are welcome at the owner's discretion. The property has large gardens for them to explore and is fully and securely fenced. There is a doggy flap and outdoor kennel. Pets allowed inside (not on the furniture on in the bedrooms).

Whether you want to spend a day on the beach, or have a quiet read amongst the tranquil native gardens, this one's for you.
