About this property

Cooks Cottage, spacious and conveniently located

Conveniently located on Cook drive, you are within a gentle stroll from the beach and shops, no need to drive and battle for parking in the peak holiday periods.
Just a couple of doors down from the Lost Spring a luxury thermal pool and day spa, with a cafe for great food and coffee. Lots of golf courses in the surrounding areas making it ideal for girl / boys or couples weekends or getaways!
Well maintained with mod cons and comfortable furnishings to enable you to just arrive and enjoy.
Great layout with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom on both levels, a lounge upstairs and a rumpus downstairs for giving it the ability for two families or groups of friends to have their own spaces.
A third bathroom in the garage for a shower on return from beach or fishing.
Plenty of off road parking for cars and boat and an outdoor filleting bench with a functioning sink.
The rumpus room contains a table tennis table, their are tennis rackets, golf clubs and lots of board games to keep kids (and adults) entertained and plenty of room for the kids to run around on the front lawn.
Well set up for toddlers with a fully secured lawn area out the back so you can relax while they play! Contains half sized bath and a clean portacot so you don't have to bring the kitchen sink.

Cooks Cottage
Great location and excellent for a larger group of differing ages. Separate downstairs lounge for those travelling with older kids. Bathrooms were good with good water pressure. BBQ could do with an upgrade as it is very rusty and on it's last legs . Other than that slight negative I would recommend
