We went to a wedding in Penneshaw and stayed at seashells. We were so happy with the cleanliness and amenities. Would highly recommend it for a family place. Even my wife said it was really clean and she is a cleean freak. Thanks for a relaxing stay

“Lovely place to stay”

Reviewed 23 April 2017 for a stay in April 2017

Beautiful house and so roomy. We were two couples and had so much space and great to have two bathrooms and separate living area. Lovely to sit on the patio with a glass of wine or meal overlooking the ferries coming in. Whole house was clean and well maintained.
