This is absolutely wonderful holiday house in a very special location. We're keen to return!

The house itself is elegantly designed, very clean and has plenty of great facilities. It has a lovely indoor-outdoor feel around the open-plan kitchen, living and dining area. The space worked wonderfully to bring the family together during our holiday.

Mackerel Beach is itself an amazing location. The no cars or shops factor gives this community a feel like you're a million miles away from the busstle of Sydney. The beach and lagoon are safe for small kids and our kids also delighted in the abundance of wildlife. We saw plenty of birds, wallabies a couple of goanna's and plenty of other animals over our 5 days.

As you'll see from the map, the house is not actually on the beach. There is bit of a walk (a few hundred meters?) along the cute community "streets". We found we enjoyed this party of the trip each day as it has a unique feel that adds to the Mackerel Beach experience.

Hannah is a communicative and obliging host who has considered every need of her guests. We were welcomed with a fresh bread, cheese, and gourmet jams board that really felt like a nice touch.
