This is a gorgeous, comfortable home with fabulous views and an extremely well equipped kitchen. Unfortunately I didn't read the entry properly, so didn't notice there's no access to any laundry facilities (my fault, it is there when you look!). I just assumed that having the whole house, it would include a washing machine. My husband and I stayed for an entire week, so that was a problem for us. Otherwise, we couldn't fault the property and found it to be located well away from (most) other people and within reasonable proximity to some of the fabulous Tarkine sites and the cafes etc of Smithton and Stanley.As long as you don't need a laundry, I would highly recommend this property.
