wonderful summer holiday

Property presented as advertised, clean and fitted with all facilities required to make it feel like home. Great location, so close to the bay beach, 5 mins walk to Blairgowrie shops, but in a very quiet street. Fantastic holiday, hope to visit again next summer!

Great location and everything you need in a holiday rent

The property had all the amenities you need. The kids loved the huge backyard to run around in and the deck was ideal for summer dinners with a cool breeze. The house is located so close to the beach and the local shops & cafes only a short walk. We would definitely come back. A very relaxing holiday

Return guests

This was our second stay at this wonderful property and we enjoyed it just as much as the first time. The house had everything we needed for a lovely family weekend with family members of all ages. The downstairs ended up being a perfect kids retreat which allowed the adults to enjoy some time together playing boardgames, cooking and enjoying meals upstairs. The location was ideal for the early risers to go for walks every morning to the beach and for coffee at the shops. Everything we needed was close by (either walking or by car). We used some of the hosts recommendations and found some wonderful local treasures (rock pools, restaurants, walking tracks) which made our stay even more enjoyable. Overall a wonderful property that we hope to stay in again.

Great spacious property in a great location

We had a wonderful time at this property. There was lots of space inside and out. The teenage kids loved all the space, particularly the billiard room. It was an easy walk to the Blairgowrie shops to grab a morning coffee and the beach is so close. Everything about the property was easy and it had absolutely everything to make it a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

Photos don't do justice

We had a wonderful time at this property over the long weekend. The house and backyard were even more impressive than in the photos. The location was perfect being only a very short walk to the beach and to the Blairgowrie strip of shops which was awesome in the mornings to be able to walk and get a coffee. The property itself had everything we needed to ensure we were comfortable. The bed configurations worked well for our family and all of the cupboards were well stocked with pantry items, games, cleaning products, stuff for the kids to play with etc. The backyard was also amazing and we were able to make some awesome memories with family of all ages kicking a footy and roasting marshmallows in the fire. We would definitely stay at this property again. (And hope to do so soon). Nicola

Spacious, comfortable, awesome backyard and close to everything!

We stayed here as a family of 7, and there was plenty of space for everyone. The beds were comfortable, the yard provided plenty of space for the kids to play cricket, kick a ball, and play 40/40 home by torchlight! We all walked to and from the beach in minutes and enjoyed sunrise both mornings. The local shops had everything we needed including good coffee and a wine bar. We enjoyed our Saturday morning run on the new footpaths along the main road. Highly recommend for big families or family groups who want a comfortable, spacious, and well positioned home to enjoy.
