• Korina (10/5): Beautiful Accomodation - This little bungalow is just lovely. Very, very clean, very comfortable and has everything you need. The decor is beautiful and the garden is lovely. We saw wildlife, heard the penguins at night and only a stones throw to the beach and Goat Island itself. Peaceful, relaxing and highly recommend Nothing

• Brooks (10/5): A relaxing stay by the beach with a lovely room and great location. - We absolutely loved our stay here! The location is great, the room is lovely and comfortable, and being so close to the beach made the whole experience feel very relaxing and chill. It was wonderful to be able to walk by the beach and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere during our stay. It really made the trip even more special. If we come back in the future, we would definitely stay here again!

• Kelli (10/5): - Location, little details, aesthetics, and again - location!!! That the outdoor shower didn't work
• Tamren (10/5): - A very relaxing little place
• Andrew (10/5): Great location and stay along the north coast - Lovely property, great facilities and very comfortable. The railway track at the bottom of the garden is unique - don’t worry about it as there are hardly ever trains! N/a
• maureen (8/5): Felt like visiting a luxurious spa. - Beautifully set up & decorated Not fully fenced. Opening to active railway tracks - which were exceptionally close to property’s boundary. Dogs need to be monitored & kept on leads.
• Stevenson (10/5): - It was clean and tidy everything was there and the bath was excellent 👍 Nothing
• Susan (10/5): Bliss - Loved the tasteful and clever design and the attention to detail. A blissful 5 days Everything was great but laundry facilities would be a bonus for longer stays - perhaps outside??
• Merryl (10/5): We had a lovely stay, the property met all our expectations and was a comfortable and relaxing place to stay! - Goat Island Bungalow is nicely set up and very well appointed. It is private and quiet. I don’t think there was anything not to like.
• Joanne (9/5): - Beautiful property and location A little smaller than we expected, but everything was in perfect condition and very lovely. probably not great for 2 couples, but great for a couple of friends, or small family.
• Trent V. (10/5): - Beautiful place and location. Very comfortable and provided with many comforts. The only down side was a mildewy odour from around the kitchen sink. We believe it was some cutting boards uncleaned or put away wet. Once we set the cutting boards outside the odour wasn't present.

Hosts were friendly and helpful. The train (only 2 in 12 hours) was a fun novelty for our older children. Beautiful view and the sound of the ocean close by were very relaxing. Enjoyed our little beach walk. Just wish we could have stayed longer to enjoy all it had to offer. This place was perfect for us but families with younger kids should note the train line.
• Kathryn (8/5): Beautiful Bungalow - Gorgeous self-contained bungalow close to Penguin and Ulverstone. Stunning bathroom and well appointed bedrooms, living area and kitchen facilities. We especially enjoyed the beautiful landscaped gardens with fire pit, multiple seating area and short walk to Goat Island Reserve. Parking area next to bungalow was a little tight with our large car and large and low overhanging trees.

Technically property is beach front however there is a train line at your back door before you get to the beach. Views of the beach would best be described as "glimses".

We loved the spaciousness, thoughtful touches that enabled us to feel at home. All the light through big windows, and a big bathroom. Looking forward to staying again on our next trip.
• Craig (10/5): Exceptional - I actually liked the train going past in the backyard. Lovely location, great shower.
• David (9/5): Beautiful location and facilities, excellent vistas - The only slight issue was that the heating was not really effective, although worth noting it was one of the coldest days of the year. I had the heat pump on 30 but still wore a jumper inside.
• Rowena (10/5): Perfect place to stay with my pup for the weekend. - The location was great, it was quiet (apart from being near the train track, but only one train went past and it wasn't very noisy), on the edge of town, but still very close to everything in Ulverstone. The property had everything I needed, was very clean and the host had been very thoughtful with setting it up for guests. Thank you for a lovely stay. It was a little tricky to get the front door open the first time, but I figured it out - it was ok.
• Marion (10/5): Exceptional - The convenience of the accommodation that it's close to everything. Sit here and listen to the water. So peaceful and calming. 💜 N/A
