Thanks for a wonderful stay Jenni, we hope to welcome you back again.
The property was great. We were able to accommodate everyone with ease. The location was sensational and made it really easy for us to get to where we needed
It was A on walking through the door smelled lovely and super clean, this was a pleasant surprise. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking and serving goods. Living lounge area worked fine for the 4 of us but probably not enough couch space to accommodate the amount of people the house could sleep. We took our whippet whom was not able to be in backyard unsupervised as lots of pre existing holes around fence line and it was quiet muddy but it is winter.Location of the house was sensational 10min walk one way was beach and lots of walking tracks 10min the other way city centre.Would definitely book here again:)
This well renovated place was an absolute joy to stay in.
Fantastic back yard, clean and looked after, a short walk to the beach and a wonderful place to stay.
If we're ever in Warrnambool again we'll be keen to revisit!
