Lovely location lacked in cleanliness

We found this property quite easily and first impressions were very good, crumbs on the couch were not well received! We thought the bathroom facilities were fine for two but anymore in the booking would have found it difficult, minimal towel hanging and the toilet leaked after just two nights.

A little jewel in the heart of Pt Elliott

We try to book the same cottage every year. As it’s walking distance to cafes, restaurants, hotels and eclectic shops.. Lucia’s Cottage, is a well loved stay. The very private back garden area, is a suntrap..with chairs, sun lounge and table. It reminds us of a Tuscan courtyard. With its hand built walled garden…and many plants. The extension on the back of the cottage, gives a modern kitchen dining and tv room, perfect for our needs. It’s not a deal breaker, but maybe a small mobile clothes rack in the bedrooms. We loved our stay. And will be back, hopefully soon. Thankyou to our host Wendy. From Marjie Pete and Maryann..

Lucia’s cottage - just perfect

A wonderful home for a family getaway, especially for young children. Location was brilliant, walking distance to everything you’re after and food from the Retro Vibe next door was delicious! Certainly recommend for a weekend or longer trip away.

Family bonding

We had a short stay of 3 days.. but could not be happier with the location ..right in the heart of Pt Elliott…we could walk to everything we needed ..shops, cafes , hotels and restaurants.. Our accommodation was immaculately clean. And presented very well. The outdoor area, with the walled garden we loved.. again beautifully kept. A credit to the owner.. Thankyou for hosting us Wendy… we hope to be back soon.
