Positives and Negatives

The positives: The Riverside Cottage has amazing views on an absolute waterfront location, direct access to dog beach in a lovely quiet street and area. Not so good: The key had to be collected from the owner’s home around the corner and very poor-quality linen was an extra charge and bed making was DIY, no bath gel, shampoo or conditioner was supplied. Access is via the dirty and untidy garage.The property is older with visible signs of wear, stains on carpet, flooring lifting, old inefficient oven which is fine but the cost per night doesn’t reflect this. In saying this the rate is competitive for Batemans Bay.Finally, the living area can get hot in summer if there’s no breeze as there’s no aircon downstairs. The upstairs bedrooms were very nice and cool. The host was responsive to my queries.

Fantastic location and lovely property

We had a lovely time in this little cottage. Location wise it is off the beaten track but still in close proximity to Batemans bay. The property was fairly basic but very clean, comfortable and functional. Really appreciated having our fur babies with us. There is a perfect little undercover yard on the property to leave them when we went out. A lovely stay. We will be back.
