We had a great time staying at Lobbsters, enjoyed the beach and coastal cycleway at our doorstep. There was a great little coffee shop a few minutes walk away, and fantastic eateries a short drive into town. The ground floor apartment had everything we needed for a comfortable stay and was nice and easy to cool even on a hot summer day.

Catherine and Anton were friendly and helpful. Close to beaches and room out back for our surfboards. We paid a lot because it was only on e night but would have liked to stay longer. Negatives: not many no aircon, could have done with some milk for morning coffee. Recommended

Fantastic location.
Fantastic location. Clean and tidy unit. Would suggest updating fridge to fridge/freezer and having wifi these days is a bit of a given. Not an issue for us but probably should be clear that the unit is under the main house and there's a bit of a foot traffic noise. Great spot and we would return.
