We have stayed at a few properties in Venus Bay. This was was perfect. Not too big, not too small. Felt like a holiday home, not just a house.
The host was brilliant with communication all the way through.

The host was so helpful and answered all my questions so quickly. She went above and beyond with check in and check out, along with assisting me and my friend who were bringing a baby on this holiday. Would 100% recommend this specific holiday house and host. Will definitely be coming back. Cannot fault at all. So thankful we chose Venus bay and this accomodation for our girls (plus baby) trip! Thank you will never be enough for all the help we were given. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year for our amazing host and her family!

We had a great time at Elspeth’s place. The communication and check-in was super easy and detailed and Elspeth was vey quick to respond to our questions and also provided us with some great local knowledge that we otherwise may have missed.
The gorgeous house is very conveniently located and is within an easy walk to the main beach and shops. The house is also spacious (especially with 2 teenage boys), extremely tidy and contained everything we needed, it really is a home away from home.
Thank you Elspeth for a wonderful memorable stay at Venus Bay, we would definitely stay here again!

Wonderful getaway
The house was immaculate and extremely comfortable. Arrangements were seamless, and the owner a pleasure to deal with. Great location walking distance to the shops, surrounded by greenery. I would definitely return. Highly recommend.

This was a really lovely spot in Venus Bay. It’s a beautiful house, very comfortable for my parents, my husband and I and our little boy. All the amenities you could want and handy extras (bbq, pantry items, toys for kids, high chair, books). Great kitchen for cooking up meals. 15 mins walk to beach 1. General Store short walk away as is play ground. Elspeth was great to communicate with. Would love to return in future! (And even had a visit from a wombat!)
