Exceeded our expectations on all counts. The view of the harbour is sensational. Spent many relaxing hours watching the tugboats, pilot boats, ships and rainbows. There's some background sound from the port 24/7, but that just adds to the charm and it isn't any louder than a suburban street (apart from a rare tugboat toot) . Very easy walk into town. Close to Mount Clarence walking and mountain bike trails - they require a medium level of fitness. Great Indian takeaway at the end of the road. Almost directly opposite is an equally tasty vegan and gluten-free friendly cafe. The cottage lacks nothing - the cleanliness, charm, and amenities are faultless, as is the host's communication. If you can find faults, then you're too hard to please! Looking forward to a return visit.
