If you surf, it is a 7 min walk to a good surf spot. The house is great and close enough to get into the mount restaurants (30 min walk or 5 min drive to the main strip). There is a shopping Centre 2 min walk from where you stay and the house has all the amenities you need to cook at home if you are on a budget. Also there is a fish and chips shop and a fancy restaurant 2 min away depending on your spending preferences.
Also you are a walk away from Newton Street which has a boxing gym, pilates centre, CrossFit and Bodyfit training gym all right there in Newton street, if you need a workout during your stay.
The only thing that might be an issue for some is that, if you have a full house you are all sharing one bathroom (not the fault of the owner).
Overall it was a great spot and I would stay again for a holiday. If you are planning to come to the mount for a beach holiday this is a great spot.
