The location of Clare's Cottage is fantastic - within an easy 100m walk there is a convenience store, playground, beach and historic jetty.
Pets are welcome, however the property is fenced but not secure.

The only thing was the lack of curtains or blinds at the front windows. There was no privacy or shade from the afternoon sun. Also could do with the manual to work the microwave... we were at a total loss how to work it. Apart from that the place was really nice. Thank you regards John & Sheila.

We took a friend there for a birthday getaway in July. A very comfortable stay with plenty of fun had in the games room playing table tennis and pool when it was wet outdoors. Having a cosy wood fire in the evenings was a nice way to stay warm.

Nice house with 3 good bedrooms. Good kitchen and bathroom. No extras at all so bring everything, especially cleaning and soap pump. Unfortunately the front garden and driveeay were an overgrown mess and cover picture not what we saw. The bin was very smelly for at least three days. We left the house very clean.

Top location, cute place! Disappointed in cleanses, I had to clean before we used anything, so i should get the cleaning money back, obviously its not getting done, also pizza box under bed. Everything overgrown, have now scratches on vehicles n dead rat out by bbq. Couldn't play table tennis as tripping on flooring! The host should have respect and pride for this property! We wont be going back!!

Comfortable accommodation, beds especially. Quiet location. Almost everything you need.
Could have been cleaner. No shampoo/bodywash etc or gladwrap/alfoil. Have to bring own linen so a bit pricey considering.
Back rumpus room had many redback spider webs, so we couldn't use it.

Gorgeous little beach getaway, teens and I had an amazingly relaxing break. Hosts had provided everything needed and info about what wasn’t included to make it a perfect short getaway at one of the best beaches in SA. After talking to locals, and experiencing it firsthand, can confirm this is a great quiet corner of Second Valley.

Nice place with a short walk to beach.
Liked the outdoor shower.
Some of the furniture a bit old and used.
A few cooking utensils missing (can opener didn’t work).
No salt in the pantry.
No tissues.
A few light globes didn’t work.
Would stay again though.

Family Beach Holiday
We had a lovely family holiday, the house is very comfortable and has everything you need (my daughter would like a dishwasher but the house is on rainwater). Second Valley beach and the little playground are wonderfully convenient if you have littlies as we did, and there are table tennis, and dishing and snorkeling and kayaking for the adults.
Thanks for another lovely holiday, we hope to return next year, or even across the winter

Great location: great accommodation
We went for a relaxing stay by a beach and this is what we got. House had great facilities and was well equipped. Comfortable chairs for relaxing in the lounge area which had direct access to a large deck. Separate toilet/bathroom worked well. Outside shower a gem. Leonards Mill, located a short drive away, provided great meals.
