A home away from home

From our first contact with the property owner, everything was without fault. Nothing was too much trouble. The house is neat, tidy and comfortable, and situated in a quiet street allowing for complete relaxation. We were close to fantastic beaches where we spent hours walking with the dogs. The homely touches of having breakfast cereals and milk in the fridge were appreciated. The centre of Swansea with its cafes and shops is just a short drive away. This place is outstanding value for money and we will be back.

Relaxing and quiet stay in Swansea

We found the property was most suitable for our needs. It was located in a quiet neighbourhood, with easy walking distance to a couple of spectacular beaches. Our two labradors loved it! The home was extremely comfortable and easy to find. We had a super time in Swansea and will return again.

Very comfortable house with everything you need

Although it is an older style house, it is a very comfortable and self contained. Access was good and it is a quiet suburb very close to a beach. No internet provided but mobile coverage was good on Optus and fair on Telstra so internet hotspots worked well. Owner communicated well with us before our arrival.

Tranquillity

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Ian's peaceful. Just the getaway we were after. The nearby beaches and easy walking streets were perfect for our daily outings. The cottage is clean and has all the amenities - the coffee machine and smoothie blender were much appreciated! As was the suitability of the house for my daughter and little dog. Highly recommend Ian and his cottage for your next getaway!

Home away from home

The purpose of our stay was to exhibit at a local event. This house served us perfectly. It was perfectly located on the very south side of town - near our event. It had all the comforts we needed. It was presented perfectly and Ian’s communication was excellent. We’ll be staying there again next year.
