This is a brilliant get-away - well equipped, warm and sunny, amazing views with the lovely hot and clean spa maximising the vista. The fire pit is a wonderful bonus. It’s a real treat to find a modern home like this that is also pet friendly. We love the wild beach too. Sooooo good. Super helpful hosts. Can’t wait to return.

A tranquil spot for a relaxing weekend - plenty of space inside and out. Good kitchen facilities so you can actually cook not just heat up in the microwave.Short walk to the beach with no footprints only our own! Access to the lake for a dip then warm up in the spa. The jetty with bar was perfect for aperitivo. Close enough to Waverley township but far away from the rush of life.

This is a great little holiday home with an amazing view and everything you need to make it feel like home. We had a very relaxing stay and enjoyed watching the sunset from the spa pool. But it was the little things that counted: the lovely snacks waiting for us after arriving in a howling storm, lots of towels, lovely liquid soaps, board games and throws: it felt like home. We will definitely be back.

This bach was fully equipped for a holiday getaway. Everything you would need for a family holiday including spa pool, kayaks, fire pit, modern house etc. The location was the greatest asset with views over the nearby lake and the beach is just a short walk. We had the most amazing sunsets while soaking in the spa. The hosts were super helpful and would definitely recommend this place to others.

It was a beautiful place and the check-in instructions were clear and simple. One thing that would make this place more comfortable would be better furniture. Chairs and couches were uncomfortable and not in great condition. Additionally the lack of a dryer made washing clothing challenging when it was raining outside.

Property was exactly as described. Very neat, clean and tidy. Comfortable beds, nice bed linens. Plenty of towels, good bathroom toiletries. The kitchen was very well equipped, there are lots of games and DVD's, noting; the TV is ChromeCast but works well with Moble or Laptop. The views are excellent, good cliff walks but keep your dog on an extended lead as they are not fenced. Great beach to exercise the dog too. Section is fully fenced for kids and dogs. Very quiet in the evenings, and people around were very friendly.Did not use the Spa pool so can't comment on that. We had one day of horrendous rain but the bach was cozy and warm so didn't spoil our fun. Waverley is close for shopping and a nice cafe where you can take your dog inside. Take your own dog bed/blanket/towel/bowls. Would recommend this lovely bach.

Lovely week designed house with an absolutely amazing outlook. Would have loved to use the spa pool and firepit, but unfortunately the weather was not playing ball as it was very windy. Fabulous place to have a holiday with a family or group of friends.
