Feb 2, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing away from the hustle and bustle Lovely place However main bathroom is not adequate for all guests Needs a mirror in downstairs bedroom Outdoor chairs are on their last legs and dangerous to sit on (need replacing) Very hard to find- even taxis couldn’t find it-and would be good to let know very steep and rocky driveway- we would have taken a different car Otherwise we were very happy ##### Toni D. Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sue L. Nov 4, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Hidden gem in the bush This is a fabulous property close to bus routes so easy to get to yet away from it all nestled in the bush. Views space and decks with birdsong made this a memorable Trip plus some exercise on bush walks which are close by. Lovely bay and beach as well. We shall stay here again ##### Sue L.
