We had a big group - grandparents, adults and grandkids. Great having 3 separate areas (upstairs, downstairs and sleep out). The kitchen, dining and lounge in the upstairs area is a great size for everyone to eat and socalise together. Well stocked kitchen items. We enjoyed our stay. Thanks Geoff.

This is a good property for our large group of 12. The upper floor is spacious with plenty of room for group activities and so is the outside decking with a lovely view of the estuary. There is also a gas BBQ on the decking that we used a lot. A short walk to the estuary provides beautiful view and a good morning exercise.
The bathroom downstair has quite a low ceiling, in the main house and sleepout, water pumps kicks in every time someone goes to the toilet and that can be very noticeable at night.
Overall, it was a good stay for our large group.

Had a great time staying in this fantastic batch. It was a great location, had a beautiful view, only a short walk away from the water and our kids had a blast on there bikes and scooters with the size and layout of the section. We had 3 families and all had more than our own space. Would definitely recommend and stay there again :)
