We had a delightful stay at Whale Cottage in Bicheno. The location was superb … just around the corner from a wonderful patisserie & the IGA supermarket. Also close-by was the Lobster Shack & Blow Hole. Wendi & Mike were terrific hosts. They communicated well beforehand & live just next door should the need arise to contact them about anything. Wendi welcomed us on arrival & provided lots of useful tips on local attractions. The cottage was just so beautiful with a stunning garden. The house was spotlessly clean & perfectly styled. Every possible need was catered for … an extremely well equipped kitchen, washing machine & clothes line, a great shower and thoughtful provisions for breakfast (several types of cereal, milk, bread, homemade jam & marmalade, butter plus a couple of delicious hot-cross buns! There was also plenty of coffee, tea, bickies, condiments, olive oil plus more. There was a Nespresso coffee machine as well as a coffee plunger. The decor was just gorgeous … very ‘Hamptons’. Thoughtful addition like throw rugs, cushions, extra bedding, a selection of dvds, magazines, books, puzzles, tourist information plus a bucket of toys for kids! Wendi & Mike have thought of everything to make for a comfortable & relaxing stay. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home. We wish we could have stayed longer.
