What a stunning little spot! We had a lovely mid week stay and everything was as described. Easy check in and great communication with the hosts. Newly renovated and beautifully styled. Such a comfy bed and loved reading my book in the bespoke lounge chair with a drink (thank you for the bottle of sparkling left in the fridge for us). We will be back!

Sandy Corner Cottage is absolutely stunning! It was spotlessly clean, beautifully designed and decorated and in a spectacular location. We loved going for walks along the beach and river, both right on our doorstep. Thank you so much for having us and for all the thought and attention at every turn, you have created a truly beautiful little oasis! We are so happy to have stayed here for 3 nights with our two children and will definitely be back in the future.

We had a fantastic stay at Sandy Corner, the property is beautiful and very modern. The bed is super comfy and the whole place is fitted out very tastefully. The television is great with Netflix available to watch too. It is situated right by the beach and is in an area which make exploring the central coast very easy. If we were to return to the area we would look to book here again. Thank you for a great stay

Location location location !

Incredible location just across from Avoca beach, newly renovated and they have done an amazing job with it. Incredibly comfy king bed with super soft sheets. A couple of choccys and a bottle of sparkling were very much appreciated! Beautiful products in the bathrooms and tea /oil/ washing up products provided. Layout was fab for the 3 of us and we had a wonderful time. Very easy to communicate with the host. Would love to come back. Note of advice - If you are wanting to use the sofa for sleeping, request sheets/ duvet in advance or bring your own.

Perfect location

To be able to walk out the door and across the road to stroll along the beach and watch whales playing out at sea was magical. The staff and food at Waves Cafe were great, the friendliness of all shop owners on the main drag was a great change to the big city bustle. Son enjoyed choosing between ocean and lake fishing. Daughter loved perusing the antique store. Well appointed and beautifully decorated. Everything you need and thought of. The neighbours to the cottage welcoming. Helpful and friendly. The attention to detail was marvellous. Communication with owners quick and easy. Really loved it here, would love to come back.

A wonderful mini break!

2 female friends from Sydney escaping the hustle and bustle of family life for a beautiful sunny weekend of relaxation. Everything we needed was within walking distance and the lovely beach side location was just perfect. The local Sunday markets were a bonus - we were lucky they fell on the weekend we stayed. Would definitely book this house again. Thank you!
