The area is perfect for walking, playing tennis at the local village courts or relaxing in the sleepy village atmosphere surrounded by kangaroos and other wildlife.

I stayed at this quiet, self sufficient cottage during our visit to Jervis Bay with my father, my spouse and a little 5 year old on a family getaway. It was a really comfortable stay and it was so peaceful and quiet with a nice view of the bay. The communication with the owner was great and the check in and check out process was very smooth. I will definitely be back whenever I am visiting this area.

This is a cute little cottage by the water. Warren is a great host. The site is so peaceful with a great view over the water. So easy to relax and a short drive to great beaches and walks. Excellent pizzas, even great gluten free pizzas just a short stroll away. Our pup loved it too. Hope to return sometime.
