Gorgeous house in the treetops with a view!
Barney’s is a great holiday house - lots of room, gorgeous interiors, the best equipped kitchen I’ve ever seen in a holiday home and absolutely spotless when we arrived. Perfect holiday on the bay.

Wonderful long Weekend
This was a last minute booking to calm the mind and reward our daughters for a great first term of 2023. So glad we did it.
The property was a delight! The little touches made it special. We were almost disappointed that it was too warm to light the fire. Loved watching the many birds coming in the afternoon to feed.
The property is close enough to walk to both Wagstaffe and Kincare while exploring our surrounds. Swimming, SUP boarding, cruising the many artists studios in the area were highlights.
The property manager was great, going above and beyond was we were arriving late. She provided helpful tips and all the information needed to make the stay seemless. Thank you!
Highly recommend this property!
