We are just back from a wonderful stay and fully recommend booking if you are looking in the area.
15 mins stroll to the beach, 20 mins to Manly ferry and 10 mins to the bus stop where the B1 takes you along the Northern Beaches main road.
The cottage is well equipped and we loved a bbq in the evening sitting on the nice garden furniture. Plenty of wildlife in the garden to observe and very interesting to us English folk not used to some of the locals :-)
Beds really comfy for adults and kids and the washing machine came in really handy.
Clive and Terese were very friendly and happy to chat away or just leave us to get on, we were really happy to meet them.
