Great Holiday Home
Great property, a 2-minute walk to the beach, close to Penneshaw shops. Great views of the dolphins swimming in the early morning and evening. The property has excellent furnishings and amenities suited for the holidaymaker. We honestly thought this property was fantastic and look forward to staying again.

Couldn’t Be Happier
Lovely experience all around. The location is perfect, with a quiet beach just in front. Between the dolphins and the ferries coming and going, there was always something to watch. Be aware there is an easy entrance in the back with only one step. It was a week to remember happily.
