Terrific hosts. Interesting old house...

It felt like staying in...

Liked: It felt like staying in a small royal house. Friendly owner, she showed everything with such love and care. Absolutely lovely stay!

Good location but listing details...

Liked: The location was convenient to town and you can walk to the shore to watch the penguins. The breakfast supplies provided were nice. The house was lovely but different to what was in the photos.
Disliked: The listing states free private parking on site, but when we arrived we were told to park on the street (council parking). We arrived after a long day and wanted to simply get the keys and rest, but were given a 20 minute tour of the house, including details of the history and people in photos. This information should be provided in writing so we could peruse at our convenience. During the tour, the owner found a used flannel in the shower and abruptly asked mum to hold it while the owner grabbed something else - really gross. Note, there is only a fridge and icebox, no actual freezer, so dont bring anything that needs freezing. Checkout on the listing clearly states 10am-11am, however, at about 9.57am the owners knocked on the door wanting to start cleaning. We had already started packing so asked for 10 mins to clear out. We were not impressed. Several things on the listing were not accurate.
