We have stayed at this property several times and have enjoyed it every time.
You may want to check the garage roof outside the house door. May be a bees nest there.

Enjoyed our stay, plenty of room and a well maintained and clean bach. Off street parking was good but a little tight for the boat.

This house is perfect. Lovely and clean and tidy!! Can't wait to stay again. An extra bit of seating in the lounge would be super helpful as not really enough seating for four adults and 2 kids. Outside of that, amazing. A real hidden gem.

Nice place in a great location, close to shops and restaurants. Super quiet, and a great hub for exploring the many bays of Banks Peninsula.

Lovely property to stay in. The online accuracy was very good but should advise boaties that the property does not accommodate boats. The driveway parking is good for cars only. It was impossible to park the boat on the property because of if there are cars parked on the road you cannot access the drive towing a boat in or out. We had to leave the boat on the narrow road. This would cause a major boat parking problem during busy season.
