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.
