Stayed Apr 28, 2021Beautiful location, great wee holiday home. We didn't do any cooking so can't comment on that side of things, but really enjoyed the place. Wonderful deck with bush and sea views. Few mins walk down the hill to Baddeley's Beach, which is lovely (esp. nearer high tide). No iron, which would've been handy (we were there for a wedding) but no biggie... managed to borrow one from elsewhere. Thanks for great stay!

Stayed Oct 8, 2025We were happy with the location. An older but comfortable bach. We had really good sleeps in the great beds. The bird life was so interesting and it certainly is tranquil, quiet and peaceful. The owner was prompt to reply and accommodating. The drive-way is a bit gnarly but manageable. We loved it.

Surrounded by trees, it was very quiet, with only the chirping of birds for the most beautiful sound. We thoroughly enjoyed the relaxing and peaceful atmosphere. Thank you, John.
