Rye Cottage 2024
We were lucky enough to be able to book this property again for our second stay. It was clean and well-presented on entry. The welcome pack included milk so we could have a cuppa on arrival before getting into grocery-shopping mode, and treats for us and our puppy. We rebooked this property in 2024 because of its amenities (Accessible floor plan, walk-in showers, washing machine, dryer, dishwasher, coffee machine, internet, secure yard for puppy), location (walking distance to all Rye has to offer, and a short drive to access other peninsula gems) and host (contact to check in and availability for any questions). We had a wonderful relaxing holiday, thanks so much!

Location, location, location!
Our first impressions when driving up to Tamara’s house was “WOW!’ It was an incredible experience from the moment we walked in. The house was warmed up before we arrived, there was a very generous gift basket of goodies for us and the fur baby and a beautiful cosy home to settle in and relax. Tamara is the ultimate host. There was nothing we could’ve wished for that wasn’t already provided. Perfect location, even though it was winter! We walked along the main road and found excellent coffee and breakfast and we loved that we were so close to a shopping precinct. Our little getaway was for myself, my daughter, my 1.5 year old granddaughter and my fur baby and there was plenty of room for many more family members so we will most definitely be returning for future family getaways and bringing the rest of the gang along! Thank you Tamara for making our winter getaway such a pleasure and so easy. You’re fabulous.

We were really impressed by the lovely property itself (beautiful renovation, very clean, and nice and warm for a winter stay); the location (easy walking distance to shops and beach); inclusions (everything required for cooking, playing games, watching tv); and extras such as a fun hamper and generous supplies. We felt like the owners had thought of everything to make our stay (including the dog) welcoming and comfortable.

This house is a real gem, so close to the beach and the shops, we had twice daily dog beach walks and we could walk to Woolies and the bakery/cafes so easily. I wanted to stay for weeks.

A lovely summer holiday.
From booking to arriving the communication was clear from this host. The property was lovely, with new kitchen and bathrooms (both with walk in showers). Travelling with 3 generations was made easy because this accessible property has a number of spaces to sit together, or have your own zone. There is only one step at the front of the house, then it was all on one level. Our dog was well catered for also, with a welcome pack and a very secure yard. Thanks Tamara for sharing your wonderful property with us.
