2 story house

Overall was very nice, however when I walked through on my own a few minutes after picking up keys I walked through numerous cobwebs downstairs. These were in the hall and the second and third bedrooms. No other areas.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family stay was catered for perfectly at Anderson Retreat. Great sized 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on the ground floor and kids retreat upstairs along with week equipped kitchen and sea glimpses. The cockatoos and magpies kept us entertained during breakfasts and very centrally located so walking to shops and beach was easy.

Beautiful Torquay

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The Anderson St house was the ideal base for our beach break. The house is well appointed and it was very easy to relax and leave the car as both beach and restaurants were a casual walk away. The house was very clean and although we chose not to cook meals everything was available for a dinner or BBQ. We would happily return.

Old Torquay. Close to everything.

Spacious house. Fantastic location in Old Torquay. Spotless. Well appointed kitchen. No internet, which might not suit some people. Access to double, lock-up garage. Short walk to surf beach & "Cosy Corner", supermarkets, cafes, op shops, bookshop, fish & chips. Short walk to the garden start of beautiful clifftop walk to Jan Juc.
