fantastic

We found the property to be lovely and quiet at this time of year. The house is cute and cosy and suited us perfectly when we were hanging out after a busy day out and about. The trees around the property add to the beauty and really encourage the local bird life to visit which was awesome to see. The beach was a conveniently short walk away and the shops didn't take long at all to drive to. Averil was nothing but a pleasure to talk to and communicate with and really made the effort to make sure our stay was a good experience which was all very appreciated. Absolutely would book another stay in the future :)

Golf Getaway

Lovely wee house, very comfortable with easy access to everything. Only comments being, I have used used bookabach often, never had the expectation to empty dishwasher before leaving, usually fill and leave runing on leaving. Also feel you should get one rubbish bag included in your fee, not take it with you, should be part of cleaning fee. Would use again, great host contact 👍

Estuary Adventures

My family stayed at this great bach over the long weekend and had a wonderful time. They said it was perfect for their family with everything they needed. They explored the estuary, and the dairy was just down the road, ideal for kids and their scooters. The park was also really handy, so the location was perfect. They highly recommended Averil's fabulous bach. She was also wonderful to deal with, very accommodating and great communication.
