Mike and Maria's house at Eaglehawk Neck was a delight. Clean and tidy cottage, with everything you needed, along with an amazing beach view. The area is beautiful and well worth exploring. Contact with Mike and Maria was clear and concise. They left our house 🏠 beautifully clean, and would recommend them for a swap anytime 😊

We had a great time at Maria’s and Mike’s house! They are lovely people and communication with them was super easy and our house was impeccable and my plants very happy under their care :) To start with, there is stunning view from the living room and a good fireplace. It’s a walking distance to Pirate Bay pavement, with a beautiful lookout, and even we were tired of being outdoors all day, we couldn’t resist walking there at the end of the afternoons with a bottle for a picnic on the tables in the lookout. The house is very cozy, fully equipped and with a range of DVDs and games for night entertainment. There is a great semi professional coffee machine that we enjoyed having a good coffee in the comfort of the view from home. As night comes, they’re cute wallabies visiting the yard. We are lucky to be there in spring and we were amazed by the bush flowers that created a unique landscape. We loved everything about our 9 days there exploring the stunning peninsula!

A huge thank you to Maria and Mike for welcoming us to their delightful cottage at Pirates Bay in Eagle Hawk Neck . The hard work they have put into restoring this wonderfully located holiday cottage is apparent as soon as you open the door . Katharina and I had a relaxed and comfortable stay there while we explored the stunning Tasman Peninsular . Considering we were visiting at peak time we always felt secluded and peaceful when we returned to the cottage each night and thoroughly enjoyed looking at the stunning seascape out of the dining room windows during those long Tassie twilights. We look forward to hosting maria and Mike at our Gold Coast holiday home mid year .Thanks again Rossco and Katharina
