We had a lovely time in Coffs Harbour staying at Cindy's place with our pooch, for a week in late January. Shops and beaches are a short drive away, and Cindy was quick to answer questions / to offer helpful tips for good local restaurants and dog beaches in the area, but otherwise left us to our own devices, to relax and enjoy our stay. Her dog, Nelson, is very friendly, and was eager for a pat through the fence, as we entered/exited the property. Would definitely re-book if staying in the area again.
