It has all the kitchen essentials for a home cooked meal, electric blankets for cold nights, snuggle on the couch with a lovely warm coonara with firewood supplied . The bathroom is old but the shower is hot. Highly recommend

Cozy beach shack
Loved the cozy living/dining area with all the timber features. Heating worked well throughout the house. The bathroom needs updating, is very old and main mirror is so low you can only see from chest down. Outside garden needs a good tidy up, lots of unsafe debri around which would cause a concern for snakes in summer. Front yard would be nice to sit in if it was tidy.

Jay Bees experience.
The house is in a good location for walking to the beach. The wood heater was a nice feature. It’s not fancy accommodation but completely adequate. We did end up having to source our own bath mat and tea towels although the owner arrived at the door on the 3rd day of our stay with mat and towels. The beds definitely need to be replaced as they are quite uncomfortable and have broken springs. We opted to sleep on the floor instead. With new beds, this place would be fully equipped for a beach getaway.

Outdated and overpriced. The photo used to advertise the property can be misleading.
Ok living area altho’ great concern that the ‘coonarra’ fire is in a dangerous area especially if children are around when it is lit. Queen bed is lumpy and the springs ‘twang’. The ‘bathroom’ consists of a shower over a triangular tub which can take approx. 30cms of water. In order to look in the mirror behind the basin an adult would need to crouch down. We didn’t go in the overgrown garden.
