Jim & Joanne
Suits us perfectly. We have returned several times we love it so much. You can drive to the door yet the setting is remote and surrounded by bush. Ideal for outdoors living, 10 minute walk to Tara Bay beach. Extensive deck area with sun umbrella for relaxing outdoors, tuneful bird life, and wonderful views of the Sound including from the picture window of the upstairs bedroom. All amenities and ease of access make this the perfect spot which we recommend highly.

Had a gorgeous weekend here recently. The small dog on the lead loves the adventure of the private tracks above the cottage. Fishing off the jetty is fun and comfortable for several people, most times catching a snapper or spottie although the ease of the Smartwave boat and life jackets provided meant we could head out further for more serious fishing. Cosy fire, comfortable beds, view of the Sound and all private and sunny, a relaxing time had by all.

My partner and I with our four friends had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful cottage last weekend. Totally relaxing, clean and everything you need for a break away. Helen and Mike are wonderful hosts. Looking forward to staying again. Will be recomending this beautiful cottage to our friends looking for a perfect weekend away,
