Fishing weekend
Property was nice, out door area really nice, bigger out doors table to handle 11 people would be good option. Add another power point over near the bbq area for running fridges, saves jamming up the other corner

Fabulous property
A relatively new property so its in excellent condition inside and out. Spacious and well equipped. We had 5 grandchildren with us, so it was great to have so much space to spread out. The retreat room at the front was a real asset, and the lush green lawn at the back was also much appreciated. Also lots of things for the kids to play with - toys inside, ride-ons etc outside. And lots of games for the adultsA short walk or drive to the beach. Very quiet location.
