Craiglee is in such a beautiful spot, and we loved being amongst the trees and seeing the birds. The facilities and layout of the house are good but the steep drive was a concern and it’s certainly further from the beach and shops than was advertised which was a shame.

Great place for a getaway

We all really enjoyed our stay. The pool table upstairs was great fun and even managed to get the teenagers involved! Very convenient to all that Lorne offers. House was lovely and comfortable and nice and warm.

Large Group Paradise!

My friend’s and I had a wonderful stay at the CraigLee house. It was extremely spacious and had all the amenities needed for a large group. We thoroughly enjoyed using the pool table and relaxing on the balcony with visits from native birds! Great location, with a short walk down to the main shops/beach. Only downfall was that the BBQ gas bottle was empty on arrival. Overall, we had a great stay!

Lorne

House was a good design for 2 families with kids. A lovely balcony and view. House a little dated and the lacking cleanliness. The rugs in particular were very dirty and could do with replacing. Beware of the extremely steep driveway!

Dont feed the birds - feed the birds!!

Positioned only a short stroll from the main street and beach. Yet positioned in a very quite location. The layout of the home worked very well with our group.

Great stay

Great location. Clean and spacious house. Loved relaxing on the balcony watching the cockatoos and parrots in the trees (and up close). A perfect weekend away. Only fault was the dishwasher needs more racks.

Dissappointing Stay

Online no mention of steep drive and the photo only showed half of it. The house info book advised to park in the road. Online said 3 car parking. No wi if either. Bed sheets were dirty in one room but this was rectified promptly by agent. Shower was leaking badly and into garage.There was a leak in bedroom ceiling from kitchen, it was reported but no response from agent. Bed had to be moved as water was dripping on my neck and shoulder all night. Lovely house shame about leaks. Dissappointing value for money it was not a cheap rent.

Quiet location

We had a great time at the property,it suited our large group perfectly,The visits from the cockys was always enjoyable,on a negative note.The upstairs shower leaks water on the floor & is very slippery however the Spa was very relaxing after long walks.

Great Holiday Home

Great house, comfortable, clean with everything you will need. However, the couch upstairs smells horrible. Could not sit on it. Please get it thoroughly cleaned or replaced, as smell transfers to your clothing if you sit on it.

Catered for all

We stayed at Craiglee for 6 nights over Easter. It catered for 3 generations. The pool table and spa were used daily. Access to walking tracks, beach, shops/Cafes meant daily outings for all.

Great Family Holiday Home

Great place for a family holiday. Only a 10 minute walk into the heart of Lorne and kangaroos, koala, kookaburras & cockatoos viewed from your balcony. Highly recommended.
