Beautiful and relaxing atmosphere. Loved how you have an inlet out the front and a beach out the back of the property. Very clean and well presented property. Great communication from the owners and very accommodating, friendly and resourceful. The place felt very homely and we settled in straight away. Low head is such a calm, secluded and peaceful area to stay in with all you need Not to far away. Very child friendly supplying a cot, high chair and sand toys. Yummy dumplings, spring rolls and rice made and delivered to our door too by the owner. We loved it so much we will definitely be staying again in the near future. Thank you again for making us feel very welcome and comfortable :). Stephen, Katie and Lilly.
