Independent holiday unit

This large unit consists of a combined kitchen / living area and 2 adjoining bedrooms, with one set up as a "double" and the other with a set of bunk beds for the kids. In addition there is a 3 person bunk module in the living area, so up to 6 can be accommodated with prior notice.

Everything is provided for your stay, all bedding & towels, toiletries, microwave, refrigerator, a full range of kitchen utensils and cookware plus free Wi Fi and a new Smart TV.

The unit adjoins a very pleasant garden with a BBQ area, and if you need a bit of solitude or a quiet glass of wine, the gazebo will be just perfect. The 2nd bedroom also has access to an outdoor deck.

Conveniently located, the beach, hotel, RSL and shopping centre are only 6 minutes walking distance.

A separate street and unit entrance provides complete privacy and there is ample parking available.

Great place to stop for the night, just sorry we hadn't planned to stay longer! The house was very comfortable and there is so much to explore in the area. Jeffrey was very welcoming and helpful and we'd be happy to stay there again.
