Summary: Felt like the property was well cared for and appreciated. The linen was very clean, instructions clear and host was easy to contact.Location is lovely.There were a couple of items that were missing that would have been useful but did not detract from the stay.

Summary: Love it
Jane B. Jul 14, 2023 09:00:05 PM
Summary: Everything was exactly as advertised and Michelle was just great in taking me through the set up when we arrived after dark. Nothing was too much trouble. Despite the bucket loads of rain, we got some quick visits in to some local spots, yummy town cafe and a walk to the beach but were very glad to return to a lovely warm house each time. Thank you for providing a great space to stay in.

Summary: Stunning property with excellent location and what charm!
Amynta B. May 3, 2023 09:00:02 PM
Summary: We had a great stay in this gorgeous cottage. It was warm and cosy on a couple of chilly nights, within walking distance to the shops and beach. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you to Michelle for being so accommodating with our last minute change.
Sarah N. Mar 28, 2023 08:00:04 PM
Summary: Stayed here for a second time! A lovely stylish property, a short walk from the shops and a gorgeous 10 min path to the beach

Summary: Michelle the host was excellent and very engaging. We arrived to a handwritten note and a bottle of wine. I loved how the property had been modernised on the inside but had kept some of the old features too. The house is beautifully decorated and feels like a home away from home. Because the gas and electricity was turned off when we arrived which is understandable, the hot water took a few hours to heat up from the water tank so don’t expect a warm shower when you arrive. We had a wonderful weekend and would absolutely recommend the old schoolhouse and Venus Bay beach: We also went to the shell museum at Inverloch which is a short drive away and well worth the the $2 donation per person which contributes to the upkeep of the museum. Thanks for the wonderful hospitality!

Summary: Very cosy little cottage.
