Excellent bach, warm with the fire at nights. Great kitchen, lots of seating outside if sunny. Older place, but roomy for 2 and comfortable. Great value for money.
Awesome views from up high.

Liked: Check-in, communication, location
Disliked: Cleanliness
Some things missing
Could not find matches to light fire
Was more work than expected
Long walk into village was nice
Was cold
Thought overpriced
Spotlessly clean
Having to take trash away was a pain
Would have liked sleep in it expec tations of leaving took couple of hour
Overall we enjoyed the stay. Obviously the cottage is a work in progress. Lovely bathroom! Peaceful setting and nice views. What was missing? A working TV. Not having a TV is not the end of the world, but a little mention in the listing would suffice. Thanks

Simple basic beach cottage. Nicely presented unfortunately last guest had left some rubbish. Lovely village.
Lovely old building, beautifully modernised and redecorated, but retains its character. Nicely situated with surrounding native Bush.
Tiny glimpse of the sea in the distance, and very peaceful.
Obviously a work in progress, and what has been done is of a high standard but we would love to come back again and see how it developes. Everything you could want for a quiet stay. TV although not essential, would be a bonus.
Leigh and Kay.
