Beautiful property in a fabulous location. We loved the Head Keeper’s cottage; the older style, high ceilings, tasteful decor and comprehensive amenities. It was wonderful that breakfast items were provided - the eggs were delicious! The property was very comfortable and homely, we only wish we were staying more than one night!

It's an amazing property with breath taking views. Rob and his wife took great care of us during our stay and made it memorable. The kitchen is well equipped and the place is spacious and well appointed.

This is a very unique property as it is an older caretaker cottage for the lighthouse at Cape Nelson. That being said, the hiking trails around are amazing and the views are spectacular, you are quite literally steps from an ocean overlook.
It is a bit far from town and services but if you plan ahead there is a BBQ and complete cooking facilities to do on your own. The property is older but overall very well kept and at night it is SO quiet.
The TV is older and did not have an antenna hooked up, something was wrong with the connection but hopefully easily fixed. There is a DVD player with a library of choices.
Overall - very fun place to stay !

We were fortunate enough to stay in the Sunrise Cottage for two nights. The cottage is absolutely brilliant. Well maintained, restored to perfection and welcoming. The bedroom's are spacious and comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with provisions. The grounds are spacious and being right next to the lighthouse which is spectacular at night. Overall if you can book this property, it is really worthwhile and will provide a very memorable stay.

This was perfect! It was a good distance from town so we could have some peace and quiet in nature, but not too far so we could go out to eat. Really beautiful and unique location. The cottage had everything we needed - linen, towels, tea, coffee, cooking oil etc. Very well set up
