Amazing stay

From the first time we met Sue, she ensured we felt right at home. Much to her warm personality you could feel the warmth around the house. One of us became quite I'll and had to go to the hospital. Sue and ed really stepped in with genuine concern to see how they could help. If there was a 6 star I would tick that box. I will be staying here again. Sue and ed live downstairs. Trust me it's not a deterrent at all as you dont see or here from them unless you need it. Thank you so much for being such amazing hosts and making our stay so comfortable.

Beautiful house by near the beach Beach

We stayed here with our two boys over a long weekend. The property was immaculately presented and everything functioned as you would expect. Sue and Ed (the owners) were great and had some great ideas for activities for kids and us to do. Property is a few minutes walk to Manly beach which I always enjoy walking along. Although there were only 4 of us this property could have easily housed another family and then a few more.

Large spacious house with great facilities and very well equipped, with friendly helpful hosts

The house is very well set up, with lovely views and is very spacious. It is really well located - a quick walk down to Manly beach and a short drive to other beaches and the shops/cafes. Lovely large deck for barbecues. The hosts Sue and Eddie live onsite, and are very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend it.

Accommodation Maketh the Holiday

There's just so much to be said for our stay in Tindalls Beach. Eddie and Sue are such a warm and welcoming couple. They made us feel very much like family. Nothing was too hard and their local knowledge meant we were able to find our way around quickly. They also gave us some great tips on wonderful spots to visit that are not on the typical tourist path. The house itself is first class. The photos on the booking sites really don't do it justice. The views over the bay and Manly beach from the upper master bedroom are like a huge panorama, yet are remarkably private from others looking in. It's worth just sitting up there to enjoy it for its own sake. All the modern features are there including a really well appointed kitchen. There are plenty of windows to make the most of the light and the great views. The outdoor living area on the deck is large with those big views just inviting you to soak up the sun and sea air while taking it all in. But the two inside lounge areas are equally inviting for relaxing and huge sliding doors bring the outside in if you like. Eddie and Sue are very proud of this house and rightly so. It is lovely and clean and well appointed. So don't be surprised when you are asked to please treat it with the respect it deserves. Being close to the Manly shops, restaurants and cafe's makes meals easy - we especially liked Cafe Manly. The owner was a real laugh and the staff very friendly. The Shakespear regional park just up the road is worth a look for amazing 360 degree views of the region. If you want a quiet spot close to facilities for a restful holiday, easy access to Auckland for the not-so-restful parts of the holiday and a base to explore from, this will suit you. Thanks again to Eddie and Sue for making our holiday so memorable. David.
