So close to a fabulous beach
"What a fabulous beach with access along a dune walkway from the driveway - right opposite Whale/Moutohora Island. Lee-Anne’s studio was spotless, with a very comfortable bed and great shower. Perfect for our dog too with its small fenced garden. The photos don’t do it justice."

"It was quiet, comfortable & homey. Sadly though, it took a long time for the hot water to heat up, which made it difficult to deal with in the middle of winter. Also wasted a lot of water."
