Mr Granatt
This is a lovely cottage with a great view and access to the beach. It also has a an excellent, well-equipped kitchen and breakfast area, a delightful bedroom, an excellent bathroom with walk in shower, capacaious and new washing machine and dryer, and a great lounge. The front patio overlooks the beach and is a tea place to sit on a sunny day or to watch the sun go down. And if it’s wet, there is a great TV with satellite and internet services, and loads of good books and games. All in all, Iluka is a great place for a peaceful stay with all mod cons by the beach.

This is a very quiet, clean and comfortable holiday home with great sea views from the lounge. The town centre is close by with a good range of shops and the Hampton Inn serves good food and is only a short walk.

A beautiful, cottage in an amazing location. The cottage is a home from home, with 5 star facilities. The location is stunning, the colours in the morning sunrise are breath-taking, plenty of coastal walks, for both humans and their four legged friends.
