Not quite beach side holiday shack

Very spacious and extremely well equipped - excellent cooking facilities, all sorts of utensils, AND a good dishwasher. Outdoor BBQ worked well and avoided much cleaning inside. Location was excellent - near but not quite on the main road, easy walk to shops, short drive to even more shops.

Well-equipped and bigger than the pictures imply

It's a spacious unit with a well-fitted out kitchen and other features (bbq, outdoor dining, shower equipment and more). Everything worked; it's spick and span, nice light, effective heating. It's conveniently located near a Hill Street IGA with a deli that means you really don't need to go out (but you can - though that's easier done for lunch mid-week in the winter).

No Ferry

First time we have been into this interesting area of Tassie. Great to have a washing machine ! The L E D lights were great in the middle of the night. While there was no internet we were able to access that at the Community Centre, and helped by the friendly ladies there. Victor gave us advise about where to go and what to see but we really did think there would be a ferry !!!
