The Boathouse - Freycinet Holiday Houses

1 No internet. After contact with staff advised that property owners were aware of problem. Still not fixed when we left!! Could be false advertising!2 Barbecue area. No protection from weather (rain) for person cooking. Clear when we started, then poured down. Needs extra Lazerlight sheeting to extend out further. Very wet when we finished!!3 Check in time! Appreciate cleaning has to be done. Advised (via numerous phone calls to office) we could get in earlier if place cleaned. I know cleaning was done by 1.20pm. I was outside! All that was required was to allow entry to store foodstuff - milk, meat, etc. Had to keep it all in car for further 1 1/2 hours. To play golf would have had to pull out eskies (2), unload golf gear, then repack car. At the end of golf same thing!! Just can't understand reluctance to allow entry if place ready!!Otherwise, enjoyed stay.Jim.

This property wasn’t what we expected based on the online post - it feels like two houses stuck together - would be a wonderful place for families to stay, a kids hide n seek heaven - but not a friends hang out delight. Felt old, pokey, and a bit odd. But it did have all the rooms and beds it promised !

My family’s stay was wonderful. Had relatives from the States who were very impressed by the property, the beauty of the gardens and Coles Bay. This is the second property we have stayed at with this group and have been very happy and impressed by all aspects.

Excellent accommodation for family get togethers

Very helpful and friendly property management. We had a lovely time in this beautiful place.

If you want space this is the house for it. It can easily accommodate two families or a large group of people. The back garden is beautiful, and all comforts are thought of and provided. Two separate kitchen makes it separate if you need it to be. People with food allergies will specially love this. Love the skylight in the bathroom. We were lucky to have a full moon one of the nights while in the spa. The wooden décor make the place welcoming and warm. The upstair balcony is over the road which is not a busy road and you can see the ocean at the end of the road over the other houses. We enjoyed over stay very much at this house. Cons: No smart Tv No access to beach close by Far from food shops – prepare by shopping groceries at Bicheno or the little shop near the only pub (Iluka tavern). Pros: Good stable internet & heating Comfy bed Good shower water pressure and temp controls Good towels and soaps provided Bin collection is done, guests do not need to take these out Clearly labelled switches Not noisy area at night or in the morning
