Kevin & Yash
Thank you for your interest in Thrush Nest-we are in a quiet residential area that borders a nature reserve-peace and tranquility is what you can expect, with the call of birdsong in the mornings. We have 3 double bedrooms, a full bathroom with large tub, basin and shower, 3 outside seating areas, 2 enclosed verandahs. a guest lounge and tranquil area in the garden. PLEASE NOTE: We are in a quiet, semi-retreat residential area that is bordering on a nature reserve - this venue is NOT suitable for parties, loud music or general high volume noise levels. This venue is NOT a loud resort, or a nightclub, or an event venue - if you are planning such a trip, then rather look for something that caters for this. Our location is the hub of a wheel whose spokes radiate out to the golden miles of beaches in the East, the rolling hills and great restaurants in the West, The quiet nooks and coves of the beaches in the South, And the trendy shopping complexes and rugged rocky coastline in the North - all easily accessible from our spot. Contact us for any special requirements you may have, or let us have your queries? Much regards!
