Great property by the beach
Nice homely and private property with great storage for boat/caravan. Great location with easy walk to Blairgowrie Cafe, beach and yacht club. Late check in and early check out (relative to other properties) was disappointing but overall, the property was perfect for our family and small dog. Highly recommend.

Perfect walking distance to Blairgowrie shops. Situated directly opposite the off leash dog beach.

Great experience
The pet friendly property was just perfect for us. We especially loved the very large, well kept and secure outside space which enabled the adults to relax while the children and our dog played. The wood fire made for very cosy wet and cold days and nights.

We had a great week
Location of property was fantastic . We took our pet whippet and the grounds were large and secure. The property is right opposite the dog beach so perfect for us. The property itself was fantastic and great charm. Extremely clean, very comfortable and had everything we could ask for. Great outside living area with bbq etc . Next stay on the peninsula will definitely be back at buoys. Tony and andrea

Great location
Nice quaint little Blairgowrie beach-side cottage in a great location. Bedding mattresses for us where poor (too hard). Did not get a good night's sleep for parents or kids. Otherwise everything else was fine.
