A peaceful little gem

We had a wonderful stay with all the amenities we needed for a short stay. There are stunning views from every window of the bach and it’s only a short drive to some beautiful walks. The host was very helpful and the bach was very comfortable and great value.

Well-equipped kitchen, great indoor outdoor flow but tbh I just sat and looked at the view. The walk up to St Paul's rock, visible from the kitchen and deck, is worth the effort. A perfect getaway, whether you want to muck about in a boat, go fishing, or just chill.

Idyllic views and perfect bach

Such an impressive location, overlooking the harbour, even more beautiful than the photos show! Wonderful communication from Julia the owner, we are grateful they shared their home with us over the long weekend. Beautiful modern bathroom, big spacious lounge, all the utensils and kitchenware you could possibly need. A really wonderful stay.
