"West Coast Gem"

9.0

It's situated in an ideal location, walk out the front door to the pathway to the beach. We have stayed here numerous times and would stay again. It is quiet, and the unit has plenty of room for 2 people. A nice stroll into town and right across the road from the glow worm dell.

Unfortunately, the weather was not on our side this time. No reflection on the accommodation, we lost power for a couple of hours; all the way down the Wst Coast. Still enough breaks in the rain for beach walks.
