Great place for families

With two separate living areas and an upstairs dormitory, this is the perfect house for a larger family as you aren’t constantly in each others pockets. Would be great to come with elderly as well as the downstairs level is wheelchair or walker accessible. Can walk to beaches. Shop somewhere else though for your main shopping. Peterborough store is good for milk etc though. Kitchen has pretty much everything you would need. The host is very responsive and seems like a really nice person.

Home away from Home

We had another wonderful stay at Julie's property with the grandparents and our big german Shepherd. So much room for the whole family and had a warm homely feel. Nice quiet location and our daughter loved the swing on the back porch. Julie was so helpful with communication and gave us some lovely private beaches to check out, we will be back soon! Thankyou

Great family house

Our multi generational family and dog stayed a week in this well equipped and comfortable home. The house had everything we needed and only a short walk to the shops and beach. We loved the library, the games and the wood fire. A great location to stay and explore the great ocean road and beyond.

A great spot in Peterborough, very quiet and friendly neighborhood and within range of all the scenic spots and Great Ocean Road drive.The house was very spacious, well maintained, with all the facilities and utensils for our stay.We loved the retro LP vinyl player and a range of books and entertainment media to settle down to after a long day exploring and a warm meal in the well stocked kitchen.Check-in and check-out was easy.Julie was a great host, very responsive with really clear communications and helpful. I'd definitely book Julie's place again.
