Great stay in Kensington/Flemington at a lovely place. Plenty to do and see with public transport close by. Kids enjoyed their time with family and were sad to go.
We had a fabulous stay - the house and location were excellent. We loved the proximity to trams, trains, cafes and shops and the playground just in front was a hit with the kids. Kitchen was great and had everything we needed. Sharlene was a great host - super responsive and thoughtful. Highly recommend.
This lovely townhouse was clean and tidy, with everything you need and is a short walk to shops and restaurants. We found it very quiet on a no through street with a park across the road. I'd highy recommend this property.
The home was very clean, comfortable and well stocked for all of my family’s stay. It is also in a great location close to stores and the trains but feels private and quiet. The playground right outside was perfect for our son! Sharlene was a very attentive host and helped with all our needs.
Perfectly positioned property, great correspondence from accommodating host. House was spotlessly clean and had everything we could have wanted. Close to public transport and would highly recommend. Will be back whenever we visit Melbourne again.
My sister, mum and I recently had a little family reunion here and it was absolutely perfect. All the utilities you need and so close to a sweet little park that was wonderful for my toddler. Great communication with the owner Sharlene and she was so helpful with accommodating to our bedding needs. Definitely recommend! Short walk to Woolies as well which was very helpful. Thank you for having us!

The property was very clean and exactly as per the photos. Sharon was very easy to deal with, responded quickly to any queries . We had a family reunion for Xmas and the property was decorated with a Xmas tree and decorations and a lovely box of chocolates had been Left for us. So kind and thoughtful. The property is a very short walk (6 minutes ) to the train station and to Woolworths. Opposite a park. Great stay.
We had a fantastic holiday in Australia made easy by this wonderful property. It had everything we needed for the kids (x2), it was warm, comfortable and very tidy. So close to public transport etc. Thank you for our stay.
