beautiful surroundings
It is a very small accomodation just suitable for two adults and maybe at a pinch 2 small children. The host are very helpful and communicative. The gardens and wildlife are wonderful and the access to the lakes and availabilty of kyacks and bikes enriches the experience

Beautiful surroundings with nature in abundance.
Our little family had a wonderful time at the Garden cottage, Swan cove. We all enjoyed feeding the Rosella's and the beautiful lake just behind the property. Kirsten and Tony were very welcoming and we loved the breakfast package on arrival with beautiful homemade sourdough, sooo good :)

Restful in beautiful nature
Getting o Swan Cove on Raymond Isalnd was an adventure - an easy one for us over 70 and driving small cars. Arriving after dark so lovely to have fresh warm sour dough waiting for us. Delightful retro furnished cottage. Birds, trees water, the ever changing light. I had a painful back while I was there and was house bound for 2 days. What a beautiful place to stop still for a while. With extra support from yogi Kirsten. We loved hearing the history and environmental information about the area from Tony. So glad to be there for a whole week.

I can't remember the exact wording, something about a perfect place away from it all that the first owners of Swan Cove found on Raymond Island -sums it up really.

Wonderful getaway
This is an amazing place to go for a holiday whether it's a weekend or a week. The whole experience was wonderful, from sitting outside with the wildlife to the serenity of kayaking on the lakes. The accommodation was perfect with everything we needed. Kirsten and Tony were great hosts; there if we needed them. Thanks for such a memorable weekend!

Excellent location. Just mosquitoes to be aware of. The good thing is that Kirsten had already kept body sprays to keep them away. Well done.

Island paradise
Absolutely beautiful home on the quiet secluded side of Raymond Island. Property was full of beautiful birds and curious creatures. Beach was just a few steps away from the house. Home was nice, very clean. A very enjoyable stay. Highly recommended.

Unique experience
A step back in time, unique comfortable cottage. Don't expect heaps of room. But the location was superb. The weather was against us for our stay and there's nothing you can do about that. The visit to Raymond Island was worth it. Thanks Kirsten and Tony.

The perfect break
We were in desperate need for a relaxed, stress-free summer holiday, and Swan Cove fitted the bill perfectly. Owners Kirsten and Tony were very accommodating, and made us feel very welcome. Nothing was too much trouble for them. The characteristic property with private beach, together with the abundant natural wildlife around really made for the perfect holiday. We will gladly stay again.

Perfect peace - cosy quaint cottage amongst the trees
We had a very short break on Raymond Island - this was the perfect place to stay if you want perfect peace and quiet amongst the trees, with the sounds of birds, animals and the sea and NO traffic. The quaint rustic cottage was comfortable and cosy. Hosts Kirsten and Tony are very friendly and welcoming. We plan to return
