Words can not explain how amazing this place is. From the moment I opened the front door and saw the interior looking out to the view across the coast below I was speechless. This is a beautiful place in everyway. Views are stunning and I spent literally hours just taking them in, from the balcony, the spa, the bedrooms and the lounge room. Black Rock gave me a genuine feeling of happiness and peace. Thank you so much Leonie and Ben for sharing this plavve with us. I will definately be back. I can not recommend this place highly enough. Best place I have stayed at anywhere I have travelled.
