Certainly not worth the price charged. Everything is very dated and it really could do with an extensive renovation. If it were mine, I’d demolish it and rebuild. Location was good though.

It was an older cottage which means it has character (we live in a similar aged house so am aware of these and enjoy them)Generally we found the cottage in excellent condition and the facilities were good.WE enjoyed our stay in Wallaroo and the Copper Coast area not having been there for some yearsAmber's instructions for entry were concise and precise and her communication was more than adequate. In short a good host.

The perfect cosy stay.

Mum and her partner had a wonderful 2 night stay. Both are in their 80s, and found the property had everything they needed. The couch was very comfortable and the place was ultra clean.They look forward to rebooking later in the year.

Cosy & Convenient

We enjoyed this cottage and would recommend it to others. We appreciate the very comfortable bed and enough heating for the very cold nights, plus being pet-friendly for our whippet. Plenty of condiments was nice also, but there was no microwave container. Secure undercover parking with roller door was great. The BBQ was very dusty & unclean as were the bicycles so we didn’t feel comfortable using these things unfortunately.Overall, we would stay there again but a couple of improvements would really tick all boxes.
