The house was easy to find on a good quiet street close to shops and country club.

The property is getting a little old but is clean and comfortable with everything you need for a relaxing holiday. The only problem is getting your baggage up the stairs to the second floor.

SPENCERS COTTAGE & THE AGENT RAINE & HORNE SOUTH WEST ROCKS

The cottage is old but OK to stay for a short period, no problem. About Raine & Horne service desk: "Money comes first, before service and customer", even you are in a very difficult situation. We are a group of 4 adult couples, none is thinking a comeback to Raine & Horne South West Rocks.
