Loved the shady sitting areas one at the front watching the cows and the deck at the back with a serene view of trees and a pond. It was great to be able to run my 2 dogs in the orchard and also know the cottage was securely fenced to keep them safe. My dogs loved playing on the lawns and doing laps of the house. Located far enough out of town to feel country but close enough to be able to access the shops and cafes, good dog beaches nearby, also hiking trails and kayaking. Internet was fast as I still had to do some work online. Optus had no phone coverage in the cottage, however. The kitchen has what I needed, and the bed was comfortable, definitely would book this one again.
