We enjoyed our stay at Grey River, although we did find that our experience of the house was a bit mixed.
First the positive. The location is great. The house is in a beautiful spot and just a five minute walk from a lovely quiet stretch of beach. Although some of the house was not accessible to us, and seemed to be in the middle of some refurbishment, the rooms available to us were as described, and were light and spacious.
There were, unfortunately, one or two elements that were less positive. The bathroom and kitchen are rather down at heel and badly in need of refurbishment. When we arrived we found that the kitchen was not very clean. For example, the cutlery drawers and cupboards had quite a bit of general dirt and dust in them and the kitchen floor had bits of dried food etc on it, especially around the fridge. We had to wash some of the cutlery before we could use it. In addition some of the furniture and soft furnishings, particularly the sofas, had what looked like dog hairs over them. There is no internet and no phone signal at the house so, as we were only staying a few days, we did not try to contact Rachel during our stay. We did not meet her, either when we arrived or left, as we just picked up the key from a key box.
There is a lovely deck,at the front of the house, with a view of the bay. Although it gets the sun for a good part of the day there was no sunshade or umbrella, so it was too hot to use for most of the day. (A few cushions for the one sunlounger would have been good too).
Despite these issues we did enjoy our stay in such a special spot. We did not spot any koalas, but enjoyed the other local wildlife, especially the very tame parrots.
