My husband and I loved staying in Heidi's tranquil Avalon beach cottage. We definitely will stay here again and will recommend it to our friends to stay here. It is perfectly situated within walking distance to Avalon's shopping area and beach, however it also feels quite secluded as it is nestled amongst the gum trees on the side of a hill and is within walking distance to the Angophora reserve.

We loved how Heidi had the special touches of some gourmet biscuits, bowl of fruit and lots of choice in teas, including my favourite herbal teas. We also thought the cottage was delightfully decorated, clean and fresh.

The bed and linen were very comfortable. Heidi has also provided maps and information about places to eat. We would love to come back and try more, especially the gelato. We enjoyed the newly opened Mill bar for some delicious meals and comforting drinks. Perfect space if people want to enjoy being with a happy crowd. Also just near the Woolworths shops is the best gelato place.

We totally loved Avalon, Whale Beach, Palm Beach and Clareville and suggest that a stay at Heidi's cottage will make your time perfect. We have lots of happy memories from our four days away. We did hire a car so this made it easier to get around and go up to The Boat House, Palm Beach (we absolutely loved it) also a trip to Papi Chulo's at Manly. However there was more than enough to see and do immediately within Avalon and in surrounding areas.

Heidi is a lovely helpful person who knows the area well and can make suggestions of where to go and what to do. We really only saw Heidi at the beginning and end of our stay when we were leaving and we felt very much at peace with the space we were in. I want to go back just thinking about it, despite some rain it really was the ideal holiday break. Thanks Heidi for creating such a wonderful private cottage homely space for others to share. It was a home away from home. All the best Heidi and to viewers, a must try.
