Summary: Great beachside location. Our dog enjoyed the beach. Had fun riding the bikes on the beach too. Clean, comfortable.
Scott K. Jan 27, 2026 09:18:31 AM
Summary: Charming house nestled among the dunes, with views across to Freycinet. We loved riding bikes along the beach and building driftwood shacks, then sinking into the retro couches to play board games and listen to music tapes. The kitchen was very well equipped, and it’s the perfect place to slow down and switch off. Clean and kid friendly Thanks very much Amelia Scotty
Rob S. Feb 3, 2025 08:38:08 AM
Summary: Perfect for people who like ocean swimming/recreation. Had nine mie beach to ourselves. Fantastic view. Lovers of a firm mattress may be disappointed.
Alison F. Jul 17, 2024 01:27:31 PM
Summary: Lovely quirky little place right on the beach front. The weather was cold, wet and windy so it was a great spot to bunker down in, play board games and cook in front of the fire.
Donna R. Apr 1, 2024 02:23:45 PM
Summary: What an amazing space to spend 2 days exploring Freycinet! Beautiful outlook - great amenities! Wish we stayed longer!!
lyndell w. Mar 19, 2024 06:30:44 AM
Summary: We loved staying in this quirky 1970's gem !! Everything you need is here in this stunning part of Tassie. We got so much delight from the styling and added rements of a past era in which we grew up in. The view tantalises the senses. The little 4 seater glass table had us playing backgammon looking at the view for hours over a wine and nibbles. The inclusion of bikes for rides on the beach were so much fun. Comfy beds, well appointed kitchen and new bathroom was fabulous. Have a bath outside with some bubbles and a cheese platter to embrace the whole experience. Such a delightful stay on every level.

Summary: Fantastic view and so peaceful, it was a shame to leave. The house was very nice, modern kitchen and bathroom, but we found that the furniture was a bit old and uncomfortable.
Karen E. Feb 9, 2024 03:08:25 PM
Summary: Heaven. Charming home with the most perfect location. Cannot wait to return
Carol M. Jan 28, 2024 05:58:17 AM
Summary: A great location, comfortable house.
Sally G. Jan 22, 2024 02:07:45 PM
Summary: We loved getting away from everything at IdleWild. Nestled in the dunes with magnificent views, the 70's beach shack was perfectly quirky, cozy and comfortable. Having bikes to ride along the beach at low tide was so much fun. Suited us perfectly. Thankyou.
