Family weekend getaway
What a wonderful place to stay! Very child and pet friendly. Our daughter LOVED the swing set and the dogs were safely secured in the backyard. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach everyday. Would definitely recommend this place for families. We can't wait to come back.

Great place for kids
We loved staying here. The fully enclosed yard meant our toddler could run around out the back and had access to three different swings and a slide. We loved walking down to the beach each morning and grabbing a coffee before letting our toddler run through the tide pools on the beach. We would definitely love to stay here again if we can.

A very good place to stay!
Very comfortable, clean and convenient. It was also a nice quiet area and therefor a relaxing few days. We tried to contact the owners, to say, the air conditioner near the deck area wouldn’t work, and we could not get sound on the tv near the front door. My email went to the outbox and would not send.

This is a lovely holiday stay. Great beds very comfortable and really quite spacious with two living areas as well as outside.

Great property for a getaway
We had a fantastic stay at Elliott's lodge. The property was bigger than we expected. The 2 separate living areas was great and the place didn't feel crowded with 5 adults. Pet friendly with an enclosed backyard which was the reason we chose to stay. It's really hard to find pet friendly accommodation that is also fully enclosed. Only suggestions to the owners would be to add a hair dryer to the list of items supplied at the property and perhaps instead of providing foxtel, WiFi would be more versatile. Thanks for a great stay, we'll certainly be recommending you!

Good location. Clean property. Largest stove top plate did not work which made cooking a challenge. Bbq had food scraps on it. Overall, was a great stay.
