Comfortable escape

Clean and comfortable, compact cottage. Was suitable for myself, my husband and 5 year old daughter. The kids books and toys were appreciated as well as some treats for our daughter which were were a nice touch. She also loved getting up close to the chickens, ducks and peacock as well as a visiting koala. Mylene and Alan were very helpful and friendly hosts. Perfect for a remote escape but be sure to come prepared with all supplies.

A quiet place

Had a lovely quiet week on French Is at the cottage. Really felt far away from everything yet only a short distance to Melbourne. We had klmxs of beach to ourselves. Only minor negative the tide was out during the day which makes it hard to get a swim in but all on all relaxing away from the crowds for a change.

A great choice!

My family and I loved staying here. The property is pretty, the location is remote but not isolated. and the hosts are relaxed and accommodating. The cottage is well set up and we loved the freshly-laid eggs, home-made marmalade and access to the old bus for our teenagers. Even our dog was made welcome, and that meant a lot to us. Thanks Alan and Mylene for providing a comfortable, hassle-free base for our bushwalking, water-splashing holiday.
