Stayed Jun 21, 2025We immediately loved the aesthetic of this welcoming house. Nestled behind beautiful native trees and scrub, the outlook from the dining /living area has you feeling quite isolated yet it is only 7 mins walk from beach access. Really well appointed kitchen. Wonderful log fire. Most comfortable beds! Looking forward to staying again. The hosts are very accommodating and great with communication.

Stayed May 26, 2025Wonderful for those colder days with the wood fire heating the whole house. The living area is light and airy catching the morning sun and the view across the native garden and to the hills beyond is restful.The kitchen is well equipped (there is even a wok!) and the pantry is the best stocked I've seen with all those things that always get forgotten.The short walk to the beach and the short drive to Normanville make for a relaxed, peaceful and cosy break at Running Postman.

Stayed Apr 22, 2025A great place to stay... very comfortable and quiet for a great nights sleep. All the little extras that are thoughtfully provided were nice. Linen provided is an extra bonus too. Everything was clean and fresh. Any time we were in contact with owners or property manager, they were helpful and friendly and went out of their way to make sure we felt welcome.

Stayed Mar 14, 2025When we pulled up the driveway into the Australian native garden we were greeted by two yellow tailed black cockatoos. This house was a clean and well equipped holiday home . We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, comfortable beds and a cute backyard with fresh herb garden .Will definitely come back .Oh. I enjoyed reading the story about the house and how it all happened.

Stayed Dec 18, 2024We enjoyed a wonderful couple of days at the Postman's at the riverside end of beautiful Carrickalinga. The light filled accommodation was comfortable, peaceful and relaxed. We made use of various areas (back and front decks and inside) to chill, read, chat and eat. The beach was a 10 minute walk away and such a special spot. The hosts were informative and accessible. Thank you!
