We were familiar with the cottage so we were looking forward to spending our time sitting on the front verandah enjoying the sea view. Upon arrival we were very disappointed to find the view completely blocked by Atco Huts ( works being done on the sea wall ). If we had known we wouldn't have booked. A shame because we loved the cottage.

Beautifully kept cottage, touch of old style just to remind you of the holidays of childhood, with little of the drawbacks.
The beach and enclosed yards were prefect for our little one to explore and create stories

Fabulous Location
Rental was via a Real Estate Agent and a bond was required for a week. Communication with Agent's representative was non existent prior to payment and it's not a type of rental i will ever do again!
The property however was spectacular; great location overlooking Encounter Bay. The house had everything one needed and more. A little more regular attention to cleaning of cobwebs would have been good.

Was a lovely clean house with everything
we were delighted with the house..had everything we needed. Only thing we would like for longer stays is probably something a whole family can sit on in the loungeroom. The wicker chairs weren't very comfy..sorry. but otherwise was a delightful house :)
