My wee dog loved the big yard and we appreciated it was fully enclosed. Loved our stay - some more chairs in lounge wouldn’t go amiss and mildly annoying taking own sheets and towels but other than that fantastic

The accommodation is walking distance to the beach, the local shops and restaurants. The owner was very easy to communicate with and gave clear instructions regarding check-in and check-out procedures. The property is very dog friendly. We brought our 2-year old cavoodle with us and he liked exploring the backyard.

The property had everything we needed and has been maintained well. Spacious backyard and alfresco area. Close to everything around the Pt Stephens area.

Excellent

We have wonderful time in your lovely cottage. Amazing for our dog & our girls love it.. we love it so much & definitely we will be back . Thank you Charm & Ian,

Really relaxing weekend away, great for a group of family to share, the home has a great entertaing area and great space in the backyard for the dog to run around.

Madolly is situated close to shops and Shoal Bay beach and is a true beach house. We have a pet so being pet friendly was a bonus and we also have a boat, so having a large lockable carport was appreciated. The Port Stephens area is a great place to holiday - many things to do!

Great spot for walks and trips to the beach. The property is well placed to walk to shoal bay beach for a swim. Or alternatively, if you like long walks then walk up to the peaks or along the track to Fingal bay and out over the spit at low tide. It was an added plus we could bring our dogs. The yard is fully enclosed and the it’s relaxing sitting on the back deck.

perfect for a family holiday better if weather good as living area a bit cramped if weather cold and wet as the fantastic deck and bbq area is bit exposed if wet and windy would certainly book again

Madolly was a perfect spot for a relaxing getaway. The property was clean, comfortable and well appointed… it truly has everything that you need. I suppose it would be a bonus to have linen and towels included, but it’s not a big deal having to bring them along. Madolly is in a great location, just off the main drag. I can really see the potential in hosting a large family because the outdoor area is brilliant!!! We absolutely loved our stay and will return in the future!

Madolly Cottage is an awesome beach shack in a prime location near Shoal Bay. We spent most of our time on the back deck and in the huge backyard. The house has everything you need for a group getaway. Cheers

Very happy with our stay, thank you guys!

New kitchen and bathrooms; comfortable beds, great secure yard for your pets. Close to the bay and restaurants.

Great location and a good outdoor entertainment/ cooking area Neat and tidy house that’s recently been renovated. We would stay here again

House is close to the beach and shops. Its fully furnished and very big area good for groups of people.

The photos of this properties back deck don’t do it justice, it’s massive, plenty of space outside and dog friendly, large fences and lots of privacy. Kitchen is very well stocked up with with a large array of cooking pans/utensils. Quick walk to the beach and shops, park the car and never take it out again! Excellent little house that’s perfect for a weekend getaway with pets. We will definitely be back!

Great

This cottage was perfect for our stay with our 2 old dogs. Plenty of room in the yard & a huge covered deck. The hosts are excellent with questions & communication, & the house is in walking distance of everything you need. We can't wait to go back

Had a relaxing weekend with the family and our dog, great location and close to dog friendly cafes and beaches

Madolly Cottage is great value for money if you want a comfortable and clean getaway to include your fur babies. The property would sleep 7 easily, even though there was only the two of us. The drive thru garage has ample room for a boat or other big toys. The back deck area is great and the flat, grassy backyard is very comfortable for dogs AND people! It would be great for kids, too! It’s fully fenced and you wouldn’t have any concerns about the kids’ or dogs’ safety. It’s set a couple of streets back from the beach, but we drove to the dog beach mostly, Bagnalls Beach, which is a short drive north. Great to get away for a couple of days of ‘down time’. We are looking forward to staying there again.

Madolly is in a great location. Easy walk to the local shops and eateries and to the beach. Madolly had everything one would need for a holiday plus has a wonderful large outdoor area and garden. Missing Madolly and wished we could have stayed longer!

We loved our stay at Madolly, Shoal Bay. It's never easy finding a house for our family, including our beloved fur baby. Madolly has the most gorgeous sunny back yard, with a great grassed area where we enjoyed throwing a ball for our dog. We also loved that our dogs were welcome to come in doors with us, as they are used to sleeping outside our bedroom door. The house is a small beach shack, but the house has had some lovely renovations, all the beds are very comfortable and there is an extra new bathroom in the backyard for use with larger groups or more than 4. One of the best things is how close the house is located to Shoal Bay, we enjoyed the short walk to the bay and restaurants, as well as heading on the walk to Fingal Bay. Thanks to Steve and Jackie for opening their house and sharing it with us :D

We spent 2 nights at this beautiful cottage. Everything was clean and tidy with great facilities. Close walk to shoal bay beach, cafes and restaurants. Would recommend and stay again.

Comfortable house with good beach vibes!

We stayed at Stephen’s property with our 10 year old daschund. It was such a fabulous getaway and the house was perfect. We truly appreciate pet friendly places and Stephen was great to deal with when enquiring and booking. Thanks so much!

great location, perfect outdoor area. House was spotless and have gone above and beyond and have everything you need.

We had an excellent time staying at the cottage, the instructions were all very clear and we were well provided for. Would definitely stay here again!

Excellent
