No Wi-Fi or internet, this was a negative as not being able to stream entertainment in our down time. No egg flip made cooking breakfast a little more challenging. But for the cost and lactation, could not complain.

Lovely place close to all amenities
We enjoyed our stay here, but attention to detail fails, not tidy outside, also could do with a super spring clean. Showers need better shower head and pressure, hot water takes forever to get hot. Quite place, but just needs personal touches updated. Also nowhere to hang tea towel. Bed linen and doona covers need update and brighter. Stand for suit cases or bags in bedrooms.

Beach getaway with family
Had an amazing 3 days at Bridport. The house was perfect for our family of 5 to explore the local area - swimming, fishing, kayaking, rock-pooling and relaxing on the beach.

Lovely property. 2nd bed was a bit lumpy and needed a 2ndbedside table. Shower in the main bathroom was more like a hose trickle. Could of had a small milk in the fridge.

Disliked: Cleanliness
Overall cleanliness of property is poor. Linen quality poor. Carpets need cleaning. Furniture tired and not clean. Noisy neighbour running boxing classes. Would not recommend if looking for quality accomodation.

Not what I was expecting
The photos advertised for this property are not current. I was disappointed as the property is well worn and needs some TLC. There are a number of items that need repair (towel rail in en-suite, arm of the lounge, flush button on toilet in main bathroom). The stove top needs a good scrub clean (we didn’t use it) and the carpet needs replacing or a really good professional clean. The courtyard is pleasant, however, there are only two outdoor chairs and they are well worn and need replacing. Unfortunately, there are no BBQ facilities. The location is further from the town and swimming beach than suggested.

Our stay was short but very enjoyable. The house is nice - light and airy. We had an excellent sleep and enjoyed the convenience for our visit. I had a tricky time with the key and Ben was so kind to talk me through the process (thank you Ben!) I have to stay in Bridport again later this year so the Summer house will be on top of my list!

Modern and comfortable in a quite location.
The walk to the main street was a short enjoyable walk. Very spacious and comfortable.....would have liked to stay for another night. Off street parking was great and the front court yard will be awesome in the summer kicking back in privacy. Great for all concerned Family's or Couples. Would like to stay there again soon.
