Darryl's place was very clean and well appointed with cooking utensils, cutlery and and dinnerware. The choice of two sitting areas was great as children could watch ABC2 whilst we watched other channels or read. We did have to use the heater and it was very effective. The location worked well for us as we were in Portland to really see around Cape Bridgewater and Discovery Bay so proximity to the shops and the local beaches was not of importance. There is so much to see around this region and Cape Discoveries Tours gave us close access to the gannett colony as well as koalas on a private property. The geological and local history of the region was also well explained, so much so that I think another visit to this region is required. The house is located in a really quiet area of Portland.
