A real Gem!

Lovely neat and well equipped family home. We were a family of Mum, Dad, Daughter, Son-in-law and 8 month old baby. The 3 bedrooms, one bathroom and one en-suite bathroom worked well. The native garden and lawn area was a very relaxing space for play or relaxing with a glass of wine at the end of the day. Old Dunsborough is beautiful area full of natural bushland and close to beautiful calm beaches suitable for babies and dogs. Dunsborough town is only a short drive away. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would recommend this to others.

Wonderful property! Very clean and modern in a fantastic location. Bedrooms are large and the backyard was beautiful to sit in enjoying a wine and listening to the birds. Our one year old son loved running around on the lawned area and we enjoyed being just a short drive to the beach and town center. Owners left a lovely note and coffee pods on arrival too. Thanks for renting out your beautiful property, we look forward to staying here again!

Lovely little house

Very comfortable stay here. The bedrooms were a good size with heaters and cozy blankets which we definitely still needed in October! There were plenty of towels, a few toiletries and ample laundry supplies. The kitchen was well equipped with the basics and it was lovely to have the enclosed garden for the kids to play in. Would definitely recommend and we'd happily stay again :)
