Beautiful Home!
This is a beautiful, spacious, and quiet home surrounded by lovely lawn and grounds. It’s well suited for a short car ride to see the penguins, dolphins, and other sights in and around Curio Bay. We had a very enjoyable stay!!

A whole three bedroom house on your own land, not far from a number of waterfalls walks & Cathedral caves. Over looking the estuary / bay. Loved this place.
Host was easy to communicate with.
Would definitely stay again.

I love this property. But i think this would be difficult to access without own transportation. The property has no wifi but i understand why. Overall, very good accommodation. Everything was provided for too - from kitchen to laundry.

While there was a hiccup with the booking, through no fault of Pips, she was amazingly helpful and would gladly stay in the future. No doubt you will be very looked after here

A beautiful home in a relaxed and peaceful setting. Well-appointed and comfortable. I immediately felt rested on entering the front door. Depending on the day, there may not be any dining options available in the small township.
There was no house number at the front gate but only two properties in the street with the other property being numbered.

Ein Haus für eine Nacht
Das Haus hatten wir nur für eine Nacht. Dafür ist es okay. Man muss sich selbst versorgen, es gibt nichts in der Nähe, weder Einkaufsmöglichkeiten noch Tankstellen.

The surroundings were beautifull, very quiet as well. Wgen we came everything seemed fine.... but the next morning we had NO water and NO electricity. We could not shower, have breakfast, very cold. We left in a hurry. Could not reach the owner at all; phonenumber seemed disconected and there was NO internet available.
