good house, good location
This is a good house, major appliances worked well, in a quiet location close to beach and well-stocked IGA supermarket. Bedrooms are well separated from living room and kitchen/dining area. We particularly appreciated the empty shelf in a kitchen cupboard, the sturdy rack for hanging towels, the good supply of hot water, and the well-functioning clothes dryer. Only drawback: if you have respiratory allergies, be aware that all rooms but the kitchen have fragrance sticks in aromatic oils, and that they fail to mask the various smells in the house.

Idyllic cottage and location
We loved our stay here. Location was perfect for us; just a short walk to beach, shops, cafes. St Leonard’s was a beautiful beach spot and much quieter than some other nearby towns that we drove through on our visit. We will be back!
