    Sunset cottage was such a wonderful find, one of the best places we’ve stayed in. Beautiful views from the veranda and from indoors, out to the river…the sunsets didn’t disappoint. There’s a great path along the river to walk and explore Burrum Heads. Very conveniently, there’s a Foodworks, bakery and fish shop across the road. The cottage has a beautiful interior, fantastically equipped kitchen and we especially enjoyed the magazines and many other thoughtful inclusions. Donna from Balmy Breaks was easy to contact and very helpful. Four nights wasn’t long enough!
