Situated in a convenient spot, this rustic home truly exceeded our expectations! We loved the quiet, quaint surroundings and the cleanliness that the hosts had maintained to a high standard, along with the facilities and equipment provided (the barbecue came in very handy!). We cannot recommend this beautiful place enough!
Property was great. Unfortunately there was no BBQ or furniture in the second living room as in description of property No use of the backyard due to renovations. When property is finished it will be amazing. Everything else was great. Very clean communication fantastic

Thanks for your kind feedback. I am happy to report that the outdoor alfresco and laundry have now been fully renovated and include a bbq and furniture for guests to use.
You are welcome back anytime.
Our family with 3 generations enjoyed our 4 night stay very much. The beds were super comfortable and we appreciated that linen was supplied, and that we had use of the laundry. The house is lovely and has a sense of spaciousness, although this can contribute to sound travelling too well at times.Having only 1 fridge was a challenge for us, staying 4 nights over Easter, having brought pre-prepared meals. I suggest 'over-door' towel hooks upstairs as there is no towel rails in that bathroom.In future, we would bring a cake tin and an ovenproof dish, plus a favourite carving knife.There was quite a few prickly thistles coming up with the new grass (which our family gardener enjoyed removing), and there is some broken glass in the grass from a previously demolished building on site. We picked up some, but not all.We really did appreciate being able to stay together over Easter.
My friends and I (14 total) had the pleasure of staying a week here and it was a lovely experience. There were just enough beds for us all, and the living areas were great and spacious enough for us all to comfortably hang out for eating, playing board games and just chatting. Easy walk to the local IGA and the main strip of cafes/restaurants. Bit of a limited choice for dining places, but also pretty easy to drive to one of the other nearby towns if need be. Likewise for beaches, it was an ok beach for swimming but Indented Head and Queenscliffe are much nicer beaches (and still pretty easy to get to via car)Checking in and out was a breeze, and whilst there were discrepancies from the listing, they have already been mentioned to and fixed by Jessica. She was a great host and was able to respond quickly to any messages we had, and we're so grateful for her letting us stay!All in all, amazing house for big groups and a good central location.
