This house has the most amazing location, with the garden literally turning into the sand dunes and just over them the beautiful stretch of sand that is New Brighton beach. Great for walking, boogie boarding, whale watching; unpatrolled but we felt safe swimming with our kids. Out the other direction is Marshalls Creek with a short stroll to the Yum Yum Cafe and a little further a swimming spot in the river. We had a fantastic week here, found it very relaxing, peaceful and quiet. A short drive to supermarkets and a little further to Brunswick Heads itself. The house itself is rather old and shabby (especially downstairs; however we told the kids this was their domain and they were happy!) but very comfortable and we could relax. Kids loved it and my son loved the board games. Slept listening to sound of the sea. Kitchen and bathroom nice and clean, flyscreens were fine. House definitely isn't bugproof though! Decking was great, BBQ worked fine, most houses in the area have covered decks and this one wasn't, but note deck has been extended since pictures on airbnb. Shower had good pressure. All in all, exactly as advertised - would stay here again; mainly due to location, and as we weren't expecting all mod cons. Good value for a stay of a week or more too. Thanks to the NCLP team for organising it.
One more note - can hire linen from Brunswick heads laundry and they drop off and pick up at the house. Keys must be picked up and dropped off at Bruns though which should be factored into travel times if coming from and going to the north.
