"We had a lovely stay at this cottage. The fire kept us warm and snug. The wildlife was amazing and the view was fabulous. We knew we were in the bush as the penguins near our bedroom were busy talking and getting back to the sea at 6.00am in the morning They were very cute. Even though the weather was cool and rainy we could still rug up to see the penguins at night time. The echidna and the kangaroos were also welcome visitors on the road into the cottage each day. Communication with Wilma and Eric was easy even though they were out of the state. Problems were dwelt swiftly and graciously. Thank youLynne, Mark and Lynda "
