Wow, where do we start? We have so many amazing things to say about this place!
First of all, Sharon and Neil were the best hosts we could have ever asked for, they are so friendly and welcoming! We ended up staying here for 5 months due to our circumstances, and they invited us over for Christmas (as our families are back in the UK and it was our first Christmas away from them) and it was so special and made us feel like we were still with family. They are so genuinely lovely and have a brilliant sense of humour on top of that!
They always go above and beyond, it was lovely to come home sometimes and see some eggs from their chickens on our doorstep, and some times Sharon would leave us a jar of something she'd made in the fridge.
As for the house itself, it's such a beautiful place with plenty of light and colour. Although it's quite small and cozy, there is plenty of storage under the bed and it has absolutely everything you need- we stayed for 5 months and didn't feel like we were missing anything! I also want to stress that it's very spacious and doesn't feel cramped at all.
The area is absolutely wonderful, only a 5 minute walk away there is a regional park with marshland which is a great walk, there are a few playgrounds there for children also.
There is also some bushland to walk through which can be accessed from the road, links to the regional park and also the beach. The beach is around a 15-20 minute walk away and also makes a fantastic walk!
As for facilities, there is a washing machine, drying rack, toaster, kettle, regular sized fridge freezer, oven, stove and microwave. Plenty of utensils and plates, bowls, glasses and extras that come in handy! There is a table and chairs, a small house plant (if we managed to keep it alive for 5 months, you don't need to worry!)
There is a hair dryer in the bathroom, some moisturiser and other useful bits, plenty of storage in the bathroom under the sink.
There is a TV mounted to the wall that can be viewed from the sofa or pulled out to be viewed from the bed.
There is also a little wardrobe which has plenty of room for your clothes and has an extra blanket for the winter.
They also have some pushbikes for you to use just outside.
I am definitely missing some things off that list, but they have thought of everything and I would be here all day!
If you are thinking of booking, please don't hesitate, we can't recommend it enough and you won't regret it!
Thank you Sharon and Neil for an amazing stay! :)
P.s, You HAVE to try some of Neils expertly crafted beers, he is somewhat of a brewing master 🍻
