This is a wonderful house for families and I can't recommend it enough. We stayed with our four kids (8yrs, 6yrs and twin babies) and had everything we needed - there were toys, a wonderful trampoline outside, great kids rooms, a stair gate, a really well equipped kitchen and utility room. The house is exactly as advertised, if not better.
It was very close to the beach - a five min walk, with some cafes, a small shop and a playground all very close by. It's an easy walk (about 15-20 mins) to Rivermouth and Surfer's Point. This house couldn't be better located!
