Thanks to the host for allowing us to take our dog with us, an older cocker spaniel, who is a very good boy. He is a country dog and enjoyed the opportunity to be taken to nearby off leash beach and estuary for swimming and chasing a ball along the beach.
The house was well set out, though we were alarmed by the spiky cactii hazard in the front walled garden. Not a dog friendly choice.
The back deck had a lovely view, though the stairs were not secure enough to prevent a dog from accessing. A gate, or more fill in is needed there to safely contain smaller dogs.
Our stay was during hot weather and we hoped the aircon would cool to the bedroom we used overnight, though the unit is undersized to cool beyond the main living area.
The location is walking distant to the shops in the main street, which would be a pleasant walk in mild weather. We were grateful there is a large tree to shade our car when parked on the street outside the house. A bonus when carrying a dog in hot weather.
