Alison contacted us a few days before to finalize our arrival plans so all went well. We particularly appreciated the fresh fruit plate, milk for coffee and Anzac biscuits waiting for us. The cottage was exactly as described, private, nicely appointed with all the amenities necessary for a comfortable stay. There was lots of local information and maps so we were able to easily find our way around. The neighbourhood was quiet and only a few blocks to the beach. We didn't see our host much as we were out most of the time enjoying the area but all information required was given and we always had email and mobile numbers in case of emergency. Overall a wonderful stay and I would recommend the cottage to anyone who wants privacy, comfort, and proximity to the beach and Perth.
