Special

10.0

My family truly enjoyed staying at Hawley House. It was wonderful to see the sun rise on the ocean horizon from our bedroom. On a morning hike in the garden, I was greeted by birds and kangaroos. Our host Sophie was warm and gracious, which made our stay extra special. Also, the Kabab House in town was perfect for a meal after a long day of traveling.

Historic Property by the Beach

8.0

House and property is amazing, such a great stay for anyone who loves great old properties with history. The location is right on the beach which was lovely. Accommodation is quaint, warm and cosy. We loved breakfast and exploring the grounds.

Bathroom shower leaked a bit, just needed a little work, but was clean and tidy overall.

Sophie our host was very welcoming and kind. We loved her dogs who greeted us as we arrived and walked us into reception, waiting for us if we were slow. The area is stunning including the beach across the road.

Beautiful nook

9.0

The gardens and outdoor areas were pretty cool. The decor (floors, walls, frames, lights etc.) were really nice. The bath tub was amazing.

The gravel driveway and car park with potholes.
