Wow! Gandon Gully was everything we were hoping for in a family getaway- and so much more. Secluded and perfectly stocked with everything we needed for a magic winter escape. Brad caught fish every day that we ate fresh for lunch, our border collie LOVED exploring the whole area and I was able to work on my thesis (well a little bit) whilst watching dolphins and whales out of the window from the kitchen table. Short Beach was gorgeous and the surrounding beaches also stunning. We drove out to Point An on our last day and say so many whales with calves floating and frolicking really close to the land. Breathtaking! Night time rain, the sound of the ocean all day and night, a well stocked kitchen and bookshelves as well as lots of board games, comfy bean bags and DVDs made for a totally relaxing family getaway. We LOVED it and ended up changing our plans and staying an extra night! 1 week was perfect. Thanks Benedict!
