A perfect trip away with spectacular sunsets. Enjoyed Hams Beach and Caves Beach and the proximity to the property. We had everything we needed especially access to a washing machine and the outdoor hose came in handy with the dog, after trips to the beach. The Channel Cafe was a favourite and the seafood so close by a bonus. Our dog felt right at home the moment we arrived which was of great comfort, being her first trip away with us. A special thank you to Donna for accommodating an extra day for us.
Large well kept and clean property. Kitchen well equipet however had difficulties with the coffee maker. Pod machine would be easier to operate. We had a very relaxing stay and can recommend the property.
Homely little house with a quiet neighbourhood and picture perfect views of the lake from inside or outside of the home. The front and back yard was secure for our dogs. Communication with owner was perfect. Recommend this stay for sure !
Cute, tidy little cottage with frontage to the lake. Lovely to sit on the front verandah and watch the sunset. Close to shops, boat ramp, and short drive to some great swimming locations. Yard is fenced, but has 'pool fencing' along side of house to garage so would not be suitable for our tiny dog who would slip through the gaps. The house has 2 bedrooms. The children's room has a single bed and a trundle bed. Upon stripping the kid's bed of the sheets I discovered that both the matresses had large stains. I also removed the bedding from the queen bed discovering that the quilt inside the quilt cover was mouldy and stained. The shower had some mould, and some soap scum was visible on the glass. Kitchen switches on the power point are cracked and need replacing. Laundry is located at the back of the garage and the footpath to reach it is very uneven. Also lawn could do with a mow.
Selby cottage is a quaint cottage opposite Lake Macquarie with water views. Great view of the New Years Eve fire works. Relaxing destination and close to local shops. Good size yard for our fur baby. Donna was easy to comminicate with Great stay.
The home was well equipped with full kitchen. Great to sit out on the front verandah and watch the sunset. Home was tastefully decorated and felt comfortable and relaxing. The Lake Macquarie area was absolutely beautiful. I would highly recommend staying at this property. Thank you Donna for a great holiday
Location was perfect, enjoyed some beautiful sunsets
House is clean, highly recommend. Donna was a pleasure to deal with. Only downside was backyard lawn needed a mow and bindi"s were a problem, grandson visited and could not go on lawn due to the bindi's. (Small child). Still did not spoil my stay !!
Loved my stay at thus 2 bedroom cottage right in Swansea. Could see the waterfront directly across road from front deck. Could walk to shops, supermarkets, cafe and restaurants. The cottage was much nicer than the pictures. Will definitely be staying there again. Great value for money.
Our stay was perfect. Beautifully presented cottage across the road from lovely parklands and lake. Donna, our host, was very thoughtful, providing everything we needed. Much appreciated, Catherine & Darrel Cummings
Cozy and warm in the cold weather and fabulous in the warm weather.
Fresh seafood just across the road and a wonderful stocked kitchen with anything you need to cook up a feast.
Our dog loves free run i n the fenced backyard.
We loved it! Gorgeous little cottage for a quiet and relaxing family getaway. Just across the road from the lake offering beautiful views and amazing sunsets. An easy 1km stroll to local shops and short drive to local beaches. An abundance of off street parking and very dog friendly. Everything you could need is supplied. Very clean.
Fantastic getaway for us to recharge & relax.
Our four legged kids loved it & a perfect secure back yard for them to play in.
Thank you Donna for sharing your rental home x
Selby Lakeside Cottage was a cute, clean family mini get away home with an awesome sunset view that was exactly what it claimed to be at a great price. The location was amazing! Quiet and central to everything we wanted to visit like walking trails and beautiful beaches. The host Donna was easy to contact and when we had a small issue with the TV remote she fixed it within the hour.
We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely little cottage, with our 2 dogs. Very clean and comfortable, in a very nice quiet location overlooking the lake. Great secure yard. Bonus - Fresh prawns across the road at the co-op. Would definitely stay again.
