" Wonderful experience! In the morning, we watched sunrise in bed with Kookaburra's singing...a nice walk in the bush and private beach. In the evening, we enjoyed a beautiful starry sky with a fireplace.
The house of coz was spacious and fully equipped with all we need... tons of cookery and herbs.
We also truly appreciated with the cleanliness and the good quality of mattress.
Everything in a good design as well as practical detail. What a luxury holiday house!
Thank you very much. "

" The owners of this holiday home have gone to great lengths to ensure that
holiday makers have the very best experience, from the spaciousness of the house & the absolute attention to detail with regards to the fittings as well as the cleanliness & the superbly comfortable beds this holiday home has something to offer everybody. The water toys are amazing as well as the outstanding views which make the possibility of just curling up in the sun to enjoy a quiet read or snooze most appealing. Can highly recommend the Coalmines Escape for a wonderfully
relaxing break. "

" What an amazing part of the world this is!!! Came down on the Spirit from
Melbourne with our kayak and found some great spots to paddle including straight off the beach behind the house to the Coal Mines. Port Arthur is just 30 minutes drive to visit and put the kayak in.
The house is perfect!! Views of the water from every bedroom and living areas, just spectacular.
Just have to mention the kitchen is fully stocked with everything, very rare in holiday rentals.
We will be revisiting."
