Home away from home

Our third stay at Wavebreaker, this time for five nights in mid August. Love the tranquility, the views over the ocean, the whale spotting, walks along the beach, the village atmosphere where you can stroll down to get a good coffee, shop for dinner or relax over a casual lunch in the cafe. But most of all we enjoy Debra's caring hospitality, her comfortable and well appointed accommodation and knowledge of the area. Thanks again for an enjoyable stay.

Comfortable accommodation and friendly host.

We really enjoyed our stay in Scotts Head and Debra's apartment had everything we could want. A lot of nice little touches, clean and peaceful, good amenities and a booklet of valuable information about the area. It's only a short walk to the beach and there are lovely views to be had from the front door down to the beach. Debra is very engaging and helpful with her knowledge of the area, and the hot loaf of fresh bread she gave us was spot on. We would definitely stay again and recommend.
