Great location. Comfortable with everything you need for a great family weekend
AustraliaExcellent location for fishermen / boaties... with very short travel to boat ramp / fishing spots. (Even had a dolphin encouter at the boat ramp and whales in sight of local beach). Well presented property with all necessary comforts. Owners were excellent...allowing an early checkin and late checkout which was appreciated. We also thought the wine / chocolates on arrival were a bonus! Likewise, the supplies of basic consumables like cling wrap, aluminum foil, dishwashing / laundry liquids & tablets was great as well. Would suit family / small groups. Covered BBQ area would be great in summer too.
AustraliaIt was a very clean and homely property. Good value for money. Good communication with just. Chocolate and bottle of wine on arrival was just a beautiful gesture.
AustraliaThe pictures didn’t lie. The house is very clean, comfortable and organise from the bedrooms to the kitchen all the way to the backyard. The house is close to the fishing area and to the Blacksmiths Breakwater. Very close to Swansea RSL and all amenities.
