​Holiday Rental: Plot 14 - Sandiways

Picture
​Situated on the south side of The Island overlooking the river mouth, Sandiways has been in the Pocock/Mackenzie family since the 1930's.  A real rustic beach cottage (the original corrugated iron walls are still visible in places), it's perfect for a low-key, stress-free, self-catering getaway.
​
Bathroom, kitchen and back bedroom subsequently added over the years, Kitchen renovated with modern sink/ cupboards etc.  Front and back decks added later.  Sleeps ten people - four on (enclosed) front stoep, one in side-room, two bunks and a single bed in middle bedroom, twin beds make a king-size bed in back bedroom.
