Little piece of paradise
This is a cute cabin in a quiet location for a restful stay yet close enough to local amenities. The owners really make you feel at home and go out of their way to give you hints & tips on how to make the most of your trip including beaches, bush walks & dining spots. Over New years the suggestion for local fireworks spots was great & a highlight for the kids. Overall a clean, cosy, well appointed cabin perfect for young families.

Small but cute
We stayed here for a week during my brothers wedding, the place was small but cute. We had a problem with the hot water on the wedding day which was very frustrating as we then ran late however it was fixed by that afternoon. Other than that hiccup we had a great stay.

Nice stay
A very clean and well maintained little cabin, with all the nessesities as well as some nice little extra's that made the stay special. Like some fresh chicken and duck eggs in the fridge and a selection of dvd's, books and board games These were great for kids as it rained during our stay.

Great accommodation and location
Highly recommend. Everything you need, very clean and beautifully presented. Loved the deck out back amongst the trees for my coffee in morning and family time. Great for family, couple or a few friends. Very short trips to beautiful beaches. Would stay again. Thanks to Linda for the wonderful hospitality and care.
