Fantastic pet friendly stay!

My family really enjoyed staying here. Very pet friendly, with a big secure yard for them to play in, and close to a dog beach. We enjoyed exploring all around town, as well as the beaches and national park. Heather was always quick to respond to any messages and the house was a great place to unwind at the end of the day. We'd love to stay again in the future!

Great family home in a quiet location

Very comfortable house in a great location and love that it is pet friendly! Did some great scuba diving with SWR Dive Centre. Heather is a fantastic host, is a great communicator and was so accommodating when we needed to change our booking dates due to cyclone Alfred. Highly recommended :).

Set Amongst the Gum Trees

Heather's house was spacious for all the family including our Dachshund who enjoyed exploring the big back yard set amongst the trees. The pool and back deck with the great BBQ is where we spent most of our time if we weren't at the beach. The house had everything you needed, the bonus was if you didn't want air-conditioning there was ceiling fans in all the rooms. Just a short drive to the shops. Recommend bare foot bowls at the Country Club. Thank you, we enjoyed our stay escaping the hustle and bustle.

Great location

Big property and great location.We stayed for 4 nights recently and although we had some cleanliness issues (not the hosts fault!) Heather was wonderful and thoughtful and attended to these problems instantly.The pool was great for the kids. They were in it everyday. The location to Trial Bay Beach was excellent and the beach is incredible.Heaps of bush walks to do as it’s so close to the national park.7km to the Lighthouse and more beaches there if you want to bush walk down to them.We had a wonderful stay and the hosts were tremendous.

Awesome damily getaway

Great property in a beautiful location. Comfy beds and lots of room for eveyone. We loved sitting on the deck in the afternoon. Lots of shady trees make for great sleep-ins. Many home comforts included, the host has thought of everything for people and the pooches. We were made to feel very welcome. Thank you!

Great pet friendly house

The house is perfect for family and friends to relax in like its your own home. Even better that it is pet friendly. It has a big back deck with ceiling fan and excellent bbq over looking the pool, yard & neighbors yards. All filled with beautiful big trees. Beds were comfy. Pool was lovely and clean and lawn freshly mowed. Pool steps are very very slippy so be careful getting in and out. The yard is a good size for kids and pets to play in. The only negative was the house had a damp/moldy smell on arrival but was ok once opened up. Its in a good location, very quiet area except for a bit of road noise and with lots of trees & birds, close to beaches, easy walk to SWR & Gaol. Heather is a great host 10 out of 10 and gave us and early check in and late checkout which is always appreciated.

Fabulous house and location

From the moment we arrived with the nice touch of champagne and a personalised card to the cleanliness of the house and yard was spot on. House was large and spacious, with some nice touches throughout the house. Dogs loved the large yard and kids never got out of the swimming pool. Overall great location and residence made for a grrat relaxing week and would recommend this property to anyone.

It's All Here!

Heather was a lovely host with fast and informative communication. The house was as shown on the internet and the pool was such a wonderful addition, especially after or before our day's adventures. Everything you need for a relaxing, happy holiday was found here. We were so lucky with the weather..blue skies and warm waters in the ocean and in the pool. My 2 dogs loved the place and there was also a pooper scooper there which made things easier. My only concern, which Heather couldn't do anything about, was that the red bin is only collected every 2 weeks so it was full when we arrived and we had to find other legal places to dump our rubbish. You would think the council would make special concessions for B&B businesses.

A beautiful home

Stayed for 2 nights with my adult children. The house is lovely and had everything you need. There were extra bath towels, the beds were comfortable and so was the lounge. The deck and pool were great. We didn’t bring our pet this time but I loved that it is a pet friendly house and the yard is big although if you have a smaller adventurous dog like our dachshund they may find some gaps in the fence which is not a reflection on the owners or the yard. My only concern with the house was that we had to wash the dishes and glasses before we could use them but again this is more likely to do with the previous guests and not the owners. I loved this house and would highly recommend a stay there and I would definitely stay again.

STOP OVER

ARACALM is a charming cottage which is very clean and Heather is a wonderful host. Unfortunately due to the weather we were not able to use the pool or patio however our Sheltie certainly enjoyed exploring the large fenced yard. However we can't recommend this house for people with mobility problems due to the internal stairs.
