House needs TLC

The house is ok overall but it needs some love. Little things like the cuttlery, crockery, jug, kitchen tap, dvd player are all very old or slightly broken. We couldn't use the iron as it was too stained. The house is poorly designed for hot weather. It was unbearable in the afternoons with no air con or ceiling fans. The house is on a septic system so you can't drink the water which is a bit annoying but not a deal breaker. Very poor shower also. The view is nice and the location is good for Freycinet, but we just felt uncomfortable most of the time.

Amazing location

A fabulous location at Coles Bay, right near Freycinet National Park. Views overlook the bay - absolutely gorgeous! The house is fully kitted out and accommodating, although the beds aren't amazing unfortunately. Overall, thoroughly recommend a stay at Beachcomber.

Fantastic Property

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Everything that you could need was here in a great location. We picked up some nice local produce and wine and cooked up a feast soaking up the great views over Coles Bay before we explored the nearby Freycinet NP the next day.
