The property was in a nice quiet location with easy access to empty beaches. Very relaxing environment.

It’s the perfect beach shack, not too flash but comfy as. Love Wooli. Commented on a few things in the visitors book.

We were so impressed with Wooli and The Purple Place that we cannot wait to get back there. The house was just lovely with all of the comforts of home in a prime position on the beach. My kids also said that they were really sad to leave as this was the perfect family holiday and to top it off we could have our dog Bella stay with us. We will be back!

Overall a nice place with a lovely view from the duneside table up from the back gate. Beach access a few doors down was convenient. Disappointing that I was told the bath wasn’t operational after I paid. It was a main selling point for me. I’ll be back when they get that fixed. It would be great if other maintenance issues could be addressed and the grounds maintained because struggling to operate locks/stove/open windows etc took away from an otherwise charming, relaxed, old fashioned vibe. I did appreciate the library and board games.

We loved our stay in beautiful Wooli. The purple house is an oldie but a goody and great value for money in this lovely location. Ammenities like a well fenced yard and proximity to everything made it perfect for our pooches as well as us. A coffee or glass of wine on our private table on the sand dunes was a great way to start and finish the day. There was everything needed in the property to relax in a funky little home away from home. My partner and I along with our pugs and Pomeranian can’t wait to come back. The only little bit of feedback was that the property could have been cleaner but hey we were too chilled out to worry!

The accommodation was fine, quiet, well positioned, clean, rustic and we enjoyed our stay. Luckily had read previous comments and brought toilet paper, tea towels, Chux towels for wiping down benches an bathroom.

Great retro beach house, very comfy and everything you need. Dog friendly which was great.

Lovely Home away from Home. Id like to report the Internet wasn't working and the DVD player was knackered and Dish washer was out of service too. I rigged up a Hot spot from my phone for Internet and that kept my lady happy:-) Also the left hand front bedroom window lock is missing a clasp to lock the window so might be best to address that for your security reasons, I told the Handyman that made the dog fence and mowed the lawns with reference to the window lock. Thank you so much again for entrusting your house to us, we left it very very clean. I wish for you both Good Fortunes, Good Health and Good Times.

Great location and loved the retro feel of the place. The picnic table on the dune was a wonderful spot for whale watching and we really appreciated the binoculars. My only feedback- the house could have been cleaner ( eg: dirty window sills with dead insects etc). Was also disappointed that the yard was missing the front gate so we had to keep our old dog on a leash for the duration of the stay. Hope the feedback is useful. Terri

Id stay there again good location

Perfectly simple, old-school beach holiday. So lovely to get away somewhere so quiet and relaxed. Loved the ocean on the back door and the sounds of the sea. Highly recommend getting up for sunrise - just perfect, thank you :)

Sweet little beachside cottage

Great weekend here. Quirky beach shack. Loved Wooli and the fabulous beach front location. Would be ideal if the house had beach access from the dunes , but access is only a short walk down the road, about 3 houses away, so still close. Tidy , but I think it needs a really good deep clean and lots of maintenance needed. The beautiful sleepy town location reminds me of beach holidays as a child. Lots of fun here. Thank you .

Clean, basic accommodation in good close proximity to all most would want

Awesome house! Awesome spot!

Simple but comfy beach house. Fantastic location on the beach

Thank you for our beautiful stay at the peaceful purple place wonderful to listen to sounds of the sea and nature easy access clean and tidy with great old charm character

Check in was easy. Location was good. Only a short walk to the beach. Great flat area for push bike riding. Good meals at the local hotel. Very enjoyable.

We had the perfect relaxing break by the beach. On arrival the house was spotlessly clean and tidy. The location was right on the beach with a fully fenced yard for the dogs. We watched the sunrise each morning from the excellent vantage point up behind the house and spent hours there with the telescope watching fishing boats, dolphins and whales. Heaps of 'toys' in the shed to use -fishing rods, surfboards, kayaks, goggles & flippers which we used. Recommend a meal at Harrys Chinese restaurant at the bowling club just a few minutes walk down the road.The bistro at the hotel on the way into Wooli was also great for fresh oysters and a cold beer. Also went for a drive to Diggers Camp for safe swimming and a snorkel-just gorgeous. Would recommend taking in your food supplies as the one local shop is expensive, but good for emergencies. This was one of the most relaxing holidays we have ever had (we went mid week) and we will be back.

The house is the quintessential beach shack. Loads of shade in the yard which is a bonus. Wooli itself is an adorable town perched close to the illaroo national park campground and Sandon river. There was a bit of confusion about pets, just to be clear the website says pets inside ok, just not in bedrooms or on furniture. There is a notice in the house saying pets not allowed inside. The yard was secure enough, however we needed to lean something against the entry gates to ensure our dogs couldn't get out. Loved our stay, comfortable beds, great location. There are very limited eating out options in Wooli. Even though the Chinese is pretty good, and you can get basics at a premium from the general store, bring what you need.

Awesome spot will be back

Simple but sufficient. Very clean and had everything we needed plus a few extras.

This is our second time at the purple place and we love it. This time with our two tween children and grandparents. Plenty of room, comfortable and great being so close to walkway to the beach. Watching dolphins from up on the terrace was a favourite this time. A classic beach house- relaxed vibe and everything you need. We will be back!

Great family friendly place. Perfect for kids. We took two dogs as well it was great. House was simple and a little quirky reminded me of my childhood. The only down side was the noisy neighbours. Who were also there on holiday.

The seat by the sea was great. Crabs were friendly.

Fenced yard for our dog. Great walking track to the river mouth with several safe swimming areas. Wooli is a quiet village.

Excellent Bach by the beach, reminded us of days gone past. Had everything + that you could want. Great location and good access to local haunts and the beach. Thorough enjoyed our stay as did our dog. Weather was not the greatest as it rained most day but you always have a awesome time at the beach. Thank you for the use of your place, well be booking again. Cheers Chris & Ann

Lovely retro bach. Brought back childhood memories of beach holidays in small town NZ. Spacious house, comfy beds , great aircon in kitchen and especially loved the picnic table above the beach for morning coffees and evening wines.

The purple place is laid back and very comfortable. It reminded us of our holiday trips with family when we were young. The house is clean and well stocked. The location us amazing. Up the back you watch the weather roll in across the long wild beach. A short drive and you can swim under the guise of life guides and then wash off the sand in the lagoon. We stayed with two little dogs and while they spent their time outside they were able to come, on leads, to beaches. Take your food etc, this is a home cooked sand in your bed type break.

The Purple Place was delightful, comfortable and is perfectly located. Everyone agreed that the only problem with it was that we hadn't booked for long enough. Fiona was such a great host and made sure we were comfortable and had everything we needed.It is worth noting the yard is very pet friendly, but you need to keep your dog outside all the time. But the yard is big and has a big shady tree and great table and chairs, so it was very easy for us to spend most of our time outside.
