Our stay was very comfortable, the Shack was as described, well located, quite and had all we needed. Our host provided lots of information, making entry and our stay at the property very easy. I would be happy to recommend this property for a stay at Moffat Beach.
Great affordable holiday away! Moffat beach is amazing will be back

We loved our stay at Moffat. The house is in a great location, close to cafes and beach. The house is comfortable but nothing fancy. It was well suited to my family of 5. We will stay there again.
Terrific location. The house is comfortable & has everything you need but nothing fancy. Martin was a great host. If on a budget & in need of a getaway this is a great option. Dog friendly which was a winner too.
We had a great stay at ‘the beach shack’. The house was exactly as described and check in was simple with Martin being an excellent host.
It is surprisingly large and the beds were comfortable. The house had all the little extras to make a stay simple and seamless ( toiletries, basic pantry items and some bikes).
Location was fantastic and the pricing was very fair. Would definitely recommend!
The accommodation was perfect for our family including two young children. It was handy having the extra living space outside for additional family who travelled with us. The location is great and within walking distance to Moffat beach and an easy drive to the nearest shopping center. Martin was a great host and very responsive and accommodating. We would definitely stay again if we are in the area.

An excellent old style beach holiday house. Secure parking w remote controlled door. Sea breezes 24/7. Ppl w mobility issues , or young kids would need a car to get to the beach / shops.
It was quiet w all amenities. A few sticky doors n drawers but nothing of major concern.
Communication w the manager (Martin)was excellent.

Location, location
The location to the beach is amazing. The house was old and in need of a decent clean. The deck out the back is not safe for a young family. We couldn’t use the carport as it wouldn’t open. House has all you need but could do with some work. Overall I wouldn’t recommend it.
We enjoyed the area and access to beach and sitting on deck and the house grew on us, ……However….. a number of safety issues need to be addressed….
There was no gate across the steps going from deck down to ground below… the shower doors were unsafe with no runners along the bottom of the shower , door could easily pulled off top runners,even with just closing shower door normally, especially a child could easily pull shower door off … bathroom and 2nd bedroom door had no bottom tracks either so the doors had nothing to run along and could be pushed inwards and then come back and hit someone. There should be reflective tape on the step down as u come out front door. ,possibly even on the two steps down from garage…these are all basic safety issues . Pets are ONLY welcome if they are LEFTOUTSIDE but it doesn’t say that in original promo. Most people have inside pets when travelling. The house is clean but not COVID clean as stated, in information sent….wooden blinds slats are all covered in dust …
Otherwise a pleasant stay, wonderful bakery just down Buccleugh Street..I assume owner lives in house when not ket out….
Host communication was great, property is homely but could do with some basic TLC/maintenance (for example the front gate or shower screen) that would make the stay easier/trouble free
A quaint beach shack that suited our purposes perfectly. Great location, quite and welcoming. The property is older, however this did not distract from the enjoyment of our stay. The wifi is excellent allowing us to work from home, which was important. Our host provided all the necessary information to ensure our stat was comfortable. We would recommend the Moffat Beach Shack to those looking for a pet friendly stay.
Nice beach cottage in quiet neighborhood near beach
Well appointed beach cottage near beach and restaurants/cafes. Kitchen has all appliances desired, though no dishwasher. Two bedrooms in house sleep five easily. Sleep-out is a bit more rustic, great for teens/young adults. Two old bikes were much appreciated. Lovely small front and large back deck/patio. Detailed instructions and communications from owner.

A back door that could only be unlocked from outside. Severe fire hazard. Shower doors that fell off when you tried to shower. Bikes and helmets in garage rusted as well as the electric door, having to cross your fingers it would open and shut. Never in all the stays I've had on the Coast have I been asked to sweep or vacuum the house on leaving. Needs a serious clean and repair inside and out. Would not recommend to anyone and definitely won't be back. Photos on line don't show exactly what the place looks like, they are old photos.. Comes down to you get what you pay for.
