Reviews
Lovely Home - Close to Shops and Beach
Anita J - 20th July 2024Mid winter, this home was very warm with the wood fire burning and passage door shut. Bedrooms have heaters and electric blankets ensure a warm comfy sleep. This has been a pleasant stay with our dogs safe in the backyard, and IGA , bakery and pizza shop just a 2 minute walk away. The walk to the beach is not for the faint hearted (steep hills), its best to drive to and fro the beach if you're not fit. We'll definitely be staying again!
A beautiful house and wonderful stay
Margaret S - 11th January 2024My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Fairview. It was very comfortable and well equipped and the house was beautiful. It is close to the shopping centre which is a bonus with hungry teenagers. A delightful property.
Lovely country cottage
Keryn J - 4th February 2023This is our second stay, and we love the ambience and location. A very clean and comfortable place for a family holiday.
A perfect family weekend
Jennifer A - 7th August 2022We had a wonderful weekend, knowing the footy was on we booked the studio too and had a wonderful grandstand view of events. Fairview is a wonderful old home, we love the character of the home which is why we are returning guests. The fireplace was kept blazing all weekend which kept the living area toasty warm. We will certainly return again.
Great Stay
Erin M - 30th May 2022House is great for a larger group! The studio gives a bit of privacy and is a wonderful size! Very close to shops, cafes and the pub.
Everything at the house was fantastic ! even better than the photos - plenty of room for the 10 of us. great with the studio - plenty of room for everyone! fully equipped house, so close to everything would definitely stay again
Family Wedding Weekend
cathy W - 17th May 2021The property was perfect for our weekend. We arrived late afternoon in cold wind, got the wood fire going and in no time the living/kitchen area was very cosy. Heaters in the bedrooms were necessary & effective. Loved that the original features of the old farmhouse remain. Plenty of room to relax & enjoy ourselves, all our group agreed it’s a spectacular property!
Perfect spot, close to shops. Big house great for families and large groups. 100% recommend
What a wonderful place to stay!! It’s so spacious, has lots of room, great amenities. We had the best time staying there. The backyard is such a beautiful spot. The house with the extra section at the back is so great and you are not on top of each other. So close to all amenities - within walking distance. We had the most wonderful weekend away staying there. We highly recommend a stay here and can’t wait to come back again.
Pre Christmas Stay
Claire M - 22nd December 2020We were really pleased with our stay at Fairview. We thought the house and garden were fantastic and very homely which meant we had a wonderful week's holiday -thankyou. However, we rented the studio for my parents so that they had some independence. We were disappointed with the studio. There are no fly screens so that windows can be opened up for a breeze (my mum suffers badly from mosquitoes). The first night was very hot and the upstairs fan did not work - this really knocked my parents ....
Very charming and comfortable place to say with versatile sleeping options and a nice yard. Close to the heart of town and the beach. We'll be back!
Perfect Holiday Home
PrueF - 15th January 2020Fairview is the perfect holiday home - large, spacious and comfortable. Ideally located a few mins walk to the shops and a few minutes drive to the beach. Beautiful district views.
