Avoca Beach

The property is in a lovely location. there are local cafes and restaurants within walking distance and great beach and lagoon access for us and our dog. It is the perfect size for two people and all needs are accommodated. It was lovely surprise to get the drinks and chocolates left by the owners.

A wonderful mini break!

2 female friends from Sydney escaping the hustle and bustle of family life for a beautiful sunny weekend of relaxation. Everything we needed was within walking distance and the lovely beach side location was just perfect. The local Sunday markets were a bonus - we were lucky they fell on the weekend we stayed. Would definitely book this house again. Thank you!

Delightful holiday cottage

We both (husband Bill and myself) were very pleased with the convenient locality - close to the beach. lake, parkland areas and the shops. The cottage itself had a very homely ambience with comfort and all facilities immaculate while privacy was also preserved. Family members visited us on a few occasions and were also most impressed with everything. With thanks, Mary McLeod, Cardiff Heights, Newcastle.

Just across from the beach with such a beautiful little front yard for our 2 year old. Bed was amazingly comfortable. Everything was fresh and clean. Fire place was amazing! They thought of everything. Very close to everything. Even the couch was amazing. Finally a place that actually is as good as it looks in the images but more!!!

Location location location !

Incredible location just across from Avoca beach, newly renovated and they have done an amazing job with it. Incredibly comfy king bed with super soft sheets. A couple of choccys and a bottle of sparkling were very much appreciated! Beautiful products in the bathrooms and tea /oil/ washing up products provided. Layout was fab for the 3 of us and we had a wonderful time. Very easy to communicate with the host. Would love to come back. Note of advice - If you are wanting to use the sofa for sleeping, request sheets/ duvet in advance or bring your own.

Perfect location

To be able to walk out the door and across the road to stroll along the beach and watch whales playing out at sea was magical. The staff and food at Waves Cafe were great, the friendliness of all shop owners on the main drag was a great change to the big city bustle. Son enjoyed choosing between ocean and lake fishing. Daughter loved perusing the antique store. Well appointed and beautifully decorated. Everything you need and thought of. The neighbours to the cottage welcoming. Helpful and friendly. The attention to detail was marvellous. Communication with owners quick and easy. Really loved it here, would love to come back.

Cottage by the sea

The cottage was very well presented with a beautiful little garden to sit and enjoy. The position was great with a very short walk to coffee shops, and general amenities. Newsagents,chemists,general store etc. The cottage was clean and bright and very comfortable with great views of the lake and all the activities that were associated with the beach and lake. Our dealings with Mark were easy, he was very quick to reply to any communications that we sent and even stocked the fridge with a few treats for our stay. Mark made suggestions for restaurants which was helpful. We were in Avoca for a family event but enjoyed our visit in this little cottage that we will certainly make plans to come back and explore this lovely part of the coast soon.

Sandy Corner Cottage is absolutely stunning! It was spotlessly clean, beautifully designed and decorated and in a spectacular location. We loved going for walks along the beach and river, both right on our doorstep. Thank you so much for having us and for all the thought and attention at every turn, you have created a truly beautiful little oasis! We are so happy to have stayed here for 3 nights with our two children and will definitely be back in the future.
