Newly Renovated Heritage Schoolhouse with Ocean Views

Could not recommend enough. Carmel and Paul were amazing, the place is unbelievable, we will definitely be coming back. 

The Place is Unbelievable

This was a fabulous place to stay. The photos don’t do it justice. High quality facilities and beautiful views. Would highly recommend.

A fabulous place to stay

We had such a great time at Carmel and Paul’s place. It had more than we could’ve asked for. Honestly, we didn’t really want to leave the house for our entire stay! Such a unique place. 
Positive - plenty!
Negative - none really.
Thank you Carmel & Paul. See you next time.

Do Yourself a favour and book this house.

We had a beautiful weekend at The Old Schoolhouse. It’s full of charm and character, perfectly clean, and thoughtfully styled. The setting is peaceful and close to Kiama and Gerringong. Loved the cosy fire, comfy beds, and lovely country views. A perfect mix of comfort and nostalgia - highly recommend!

A Beautiful Weekend at The Old Schoolhouse

This place is absolutely beautiful - every corner has been thoughtfully and artistically done. You can even see the ocean front he house, which makes the views just breathtaking. The fire pit was amazing and the kitchen had every amenity we could possibly need. Carmel was super flexible, kind and incredibly responsive throughout our stay.
The kids absolutely loved it, and with Kiama blowhole just 10 minutes away and a lovely winery nearby, the location couldn’t be better. That said, we honestly didn’t want to leave the property at all because it was just so peaceful and gorgeous.
I truly wish we had stayed for more than two days. If you’re reading this review - don’t even think twice, just book it! I’ve stayed in many AirBNBs, but this has been by far the best experience. It’s even inspired me to one day build a home as beautiful as this.
Thank you, Carmel, for such a memorable stay. We’ll definitely be back!
PS. We were a group of 6 adults and 3 children.

Absolutely Stunning Stay!
