Sophie was a delight to deal with, nothing was a problem for her. The house was immaculately clean and beds were very comfortable. The house is great with sweeping viewing across to the city and right across the road from the beach. We loved it! Thanks Sophie

Short Beach Escape

We stayed with our two children (8 & 6) for 4 days who loved being across the road from the beach and had a great time exploring. Very comfortable accommodation with great bay views. The front deck was great to sit and takebinbthe views while the kids played on the lawn. Enough space for a small family and a nice ride / walk to town.
