We loved the property and location. Penneshaw is a great town. The property was very spacious and well appointed. Comfortable beds, great kitchen facilities, excellent shower great deck. It would be great to have some deck chairs stored inside to sit out there and enjoy the view. More pegs and a few mini bowls for olives, and small nibbles. I would've bought some ɓowls locally but couldn't find any. Thanks for sharing pantry items. We loved the kangaroos, dining table and couches. It was very dusty and the wooden Venetian blinds were hard to operate, great adventure though!

Spacious house with great balcony and location
Great spacious house.Full kitchen and the balcony was a lovely place to hang out.It is definitely a dog friendly house which we could tell by carpets with dog hair etc which made the house feel a little dirty for travellers without pets.A few things were quite grubby in the kitchen cabinets but overall we enjoyed having the house and it's amenities.
