It is not every day that the view from a house is better in real life than how it is described in promotional material, but this is certainly the case with The Burrows, where the panoramic view of the Hazards and the Freyceinet peninsula are laid out to enjoy and where Bek and Paul have done an outstanding job in bringing a mid 19th century cottage into the 21st century while maintaining its charm. We revelled in the quietness of the neighbourhood, where there is little to do except eat the fattest oysters I've every seen (thank you Melshell Oysters), swim at some of the most pristine yet deserted beaches I've ever seen (RedBill beach at Bicheno was our pick), and drink fabulous local wine. The hiking at Freycinet national park was a bonus.
