We stayed at Vanessa's place for five nights, and had a great time. The photos and description of the accommodation are accurate, and it's only a two minute walk to the sea. We stayed in late February, and it was a little cool in the evenings and early mornings, but a fan heater is provided which helps. There are no shops in the village, but there is a good pub/restaurant at the marina, around a twenty minute walk away. We love nature and wildlife. Whilst we were there, the whole mountain was alive with cicadas, the sound was incredible! If you enjoy walking, there's a lovely footpath into Picton, which takes just over an hour.
