Carrickalinga Getaway Beachside Self-Contained Townhouse. Pet Friendly

We just wanted a short holiday by the beach with the grandkids and dog...and it was awsome...we all had a wonderful time..The hosts were just lovely and the communication was great and punctual....Thankyou John and Irene for sharing your home....

Pleasant dog-friendly quaint little cottage. Enjoyed the stay with our 2 dogs who were able to roam outside in the fully enclosed small yard and a few mins easy walk from the beautiful beach. We all loved it!

Great getaway close to everything

Property was very nice, even though the bedroom was described as "upstairs", the stairs were not the easiest to navigate, the tread was narrow (would be difficult for people with long feet). The riser to tread ratio was difficult for us both, the property is very dog friendly, however our dog was unable to navigate the stairs due to the tread vs riser ratio (even though she can easily navigate concrete and wooden steps at the beach and various eateries. As our dog needs to sleep in the same bedroom we had to carry her upstairs, a challenge for us, nothing compared to the difficulty in getting her down the stairs due to being unable to carry and navigate the stairs. As the toilets and bathroom were also upstairs in became difficult every time you needed to use the facilities, sometimes it was easier to go out and use toilets elsewhere due to continuing leg aches. We left one day earlier than we planned and paid for due to this issue, if the "stairs" were an anti-slip ramp instead it would have been easier all round.I don't understand how no-one else has had an issue with the stairs, maybe they are young and slim.Lesson to be learnt from this for us is to get a pet friendly accommodation that is only ground floor or a cabin near the beach (which was cheaper per night and allows dogs)
