Great place, was a unique experience. The unit feels like home - cosy, pretty and spacious. Nice ginger cookies available in the kitchen. Location is great and near to Pancake Rocks Lookout - great location to view sunset. The host is very accommodating. Their dog and cat are friendly

The seaside cottage was superb, especially the views. All modern convenciences and the cottage was well-maintained like it was still new, it was like staying at someone else's house. The cabins were charming but didn't have enough insulation/heating (we're from the tropics-but those from temperate climes won't mind at all) but they did provide electric blankets. I didn't get to see the Bush cottage where the rest of my friends stayed so can't comment about that. Loved the honesty system no-contact check-in. Just find your name on the board and get the key (and if you're booking doesn't reflect on the board, just get the key and sort it out later with them).

Sarah was a great host and provided us with local information. The room was so tidy and neat, and everything that you can think of was provided. The breakfast was perfect and so creatively served. It's definitely a hidden gem. Thank you for a great stay.
