Very clean and comfortable. Gift quality linens provided. Great kitchen area which is well equipped. Would however recommend the owner consider a coffee machine or at least coffee plunger.

We had a baby 3 months ago and it was our first Mother’s Day together. Such a thoroughly enjoyable weekend with such a cosy feel to the place thank you :)

The location was misleading, not advising of surrounding direct neighbours.
Loss of power during last night, eventuating in the need to leave early following morning - due to refrigerated items, unable to charge phones etc…
No reply from owner re issues…

Beautiful house and location, spacious for 4 adults. Comfy lounge and two outdoor decks. Relaxing on the front deck in the deck chairs was lovely. Beach walks both days as the beach was so close. Great selection of games and some dvds. Cupboards stocked with plenty of crockery and glass wear. Would definitely recommend.

It was a lovely place to come and relax. So fully equipped we managed to cook a full early Christmas dinner with needing to compromise on anything. And thanks to our host for being so informative.

We used this property as a venue for a friends' weekend away. Although not having wi-fi or reliable internet (Vodafone, particularly) was something to get used to, it eventually ended up being a blessing in disguise. (If you are needing net access for work / streaming music etc., you probably want to be a Telstra customer!) House is beautiful, beds are super comfy, herbs in garden are a lovely touch. Will definitely be back.

We loved our stay at the running postman. The house was lovely with big open windows to enjoy the views of the hills and only a short walk down to the beach. Everything was clean and tidy and included anything we may have needed. Kirstin was easy to communicate with and very accommodating. We hope to return again.

Lovely modern property on the main drag of Carrickalinga, quick walk to the beach, peaceful surroundings. A great selection of movies, board games and books if you find yourself wanting a stay in holiday.
Gas stove and all the kitchen equipment you need to make a full meal if you need to. 2 bathrooms (one ensuite, one bathroom) so you’d be well equipped for a stay of a family.
Lovely backyard for a bit of privacy with fruit trees and a small herb garden, cute little bird bath out the front which you can observe the local variety of birds flying in to sample.
Lovely stay all round, thanks guys!

The Running Postman was the perfect place for us (6 adults and 2 kids). We made use of the well-equipped kitchen, the slow combustion fire, the sheltered outdoor area where we ate most of the time, and the vast array of board games - we were wanting for nothing ….it’s a very comfortable house and we loved our stay there.
