Allenvale is even lovelier than the pictures. The space has been so thoughtfully designed and decorated with everything you need, but with an understated elegance. We absolutely loved our stay and would definitely stay here again. We really appreciated little touches of hospitality like a vase of fresh flowers and tea/coffee. The location was also ideal for us as it was a bit out of town but close enough to access the beach by car in under 10 minutes. It is also minutes (by foot) from a number of great walking tracks. We saw beautiful wildlife - kangaroos and kookaburras right by the house and loved the tranquility of the setting. The books in the house are just wonderful. The perfect country escape.
