Location, room clean, Karen warm host, wonderful breakfast

Hong United States of America

Karen is very welcoming, friendly and helpful. We loved our room and sitting out on the verandah watching the world go by eating our fish and chips. We didn't get to samply a drop of port :( maybe next time. We did have a tasty and beautifully presented cooked breakfast looking out onto Oyster Bay. We took Karen's advice and stopped at Cape Tourville Lighthouse after trekking to Wineglass Bay. We would highly recommend you stay here. Karen has a wealth of knowledge of the area and some great suggestions.

Tony Australia

Plenty of space & separation from the bedroom. We had the upstairs suite with a balcony & view. Heating & cooling available. Good kitchen facilities & breakfast provided was more than adequate. Easy access & parking. Nice hosts

Prue Australia

Karen was delightful and very informative. House was centrally located on the main street of Swansea but there was no issue with traffic noise. Room was spacious, even had a little lounge nook. Bed was really comfortable. We sat on our little deck with wine & cheese (easy walk to IGA & the pub for supplies), looking out over the bay while the sun went down. What a way to end the day. Attempted to watch one of the free dvds on offer but fell asleep. In the morning we were treated to a very generous and delicious hot breakfast with some special extras on offer (won't ruin the surprise) and Karen even had gluten free bread for this coeliac. Such an easy drive to Freycinet Nat Park in the morning. Had a lovely stay at Freycinet Waters, just a shame it was only one night. Would highly recommend.
