The room is extremely well appointed and is a comfortable size, with attractive furnishings. The kitchenette is small and not really set up for cooking, but a kettle, toaster and microwave are provided, which suited me fine. There is a gas barbecue on the deck though. The north-west facing deck with comfy armchairs that allowed me to enjoy the afternoon sun was a real highlight. The deck overlooks an expansive garden in which 2 labradors and 2 alpacas roam. There was also a gas barbecue on the deck. There were so many thoughtful touches provided in the unit that make it feel more like a home and less like a room for rent; these included things like paper towel, cling wrap and foil in the kitchen, as well as toiletries over and above the basics such as body wash, hand soap and shampoo. Everything was spotlessly clean and the bed linen was crisp and white. Greg and Adele were welcoming, approachable and friendly without being intrusive. Adele showed me around the property and we enjoyed some good chats. Although the unit is very close to the main house, I was not able to hear them. I really enjoyed the peace and quiet.
I loved the tranquility of the setting, with a view of the hills. The absence of street lights allowed for magnificent views of the night sky. As the crow flies, this accommodation is not far from the Pacific Highway, yet it feels remote. It's a short drive from the centre of Coffs harbour and really close to lovely beaches and the solitary Islands Coastal walk.It allows you to 'get away from it all' but still be able to nip down to the mall easily if you need anything! I highly recommend this place on the basis of cleanliness, comfort, value, location, and tranquility, which are the factors most important to me.
