What a beautiful sanctuary. From the moment we were greeted by Lesley the caretaker we knew we were in a special place. Secluded, surrounded by lazing Kangaroos, our group of 11 settled in for what was an amazing 4 nights.
The house is so large that at no stage did we feel on top of one another. Four of the bedrooms have their own bathroom (2 are lofts with an additional bed downstairs), 3 bedrooms share a very large bathroom and their own private lounge and there is an additional bathroom in the downstairs games area. All of this gave you as little or as much privacy as you needed.
A stunning beach is a short walk though the sand dunes - being June the surf was still a swimmable temperature to some but the properties pool was a little too cold. Summer would be great here, but we didn't feel that we were missing anything, as the fire-pit in the garden was just magic and we spent time around it each night.
The kitchen is very well equipped, especially having two fridges - great for a group of our size (though it is showing its age a little). That didn't matter as it was perfect for one of our Chef mates to whip up a celebratory dinner for my birthday on the Saturday night. I also received messages from both Lesley the Caretaker and Peta the owner to wish me a happy birthday. Lovely touch.
The only thing that slightly marred an otherwise perfect stay was a misunderstanding about pricing which meant I had to pay more than what was originally paid for via AirBNB. I think this must have been an incorrect calculation setup on the AirBNB platform by the owner - but I was ok to pay the additional amount as it still represented great value.
I do hope Peta keeps her little piece of paradise available for guests to share. We are still talking about what a wonderful time we had and how we'd like to come back some day. Thank you Peta for sharing your special place with us.
