Perfect for a pet stay

This house is in a gorgeous location, with a fenced garden which was ideal for our two dogs. Our two children also loved playing in the garden. Close proximity to the off leash beach which was so handy.

We enjoyed our stay. The property was in line with our expectations. The rooms were clean and Foxtel was a bonus. The only minor irritation was there was no soap provided for the showers.

Wonderful Family Stay

We stayed at Red Rocks Cottage for a 'Fathers Day' weekend and had a wonderful time. My teenage daughters appreciated the free wifi, the dog was happy to be inside with us and we all enjoyed the walks to / along the nearby beach. Mel was very responsive and easy to deal with. There are open paddocks and bush land nearby containing heaps of wildlife.

Great little beach house

The property was true to the pictures provided. A cosy house with aircon and a comfy beach feel. We stayed in the main house. The yard was secure for pets and the view from the front veranda is lovely. There is a great strip of beach at the end of the road, perfect for a walk or a swim. Loved it!

Great for a night

Easy communication. Tidy and reasonably clean. Couches a little old and tired but comfortable. Place could do with a few more blankets possibly but having the heat system made up for that so no problem. Overall, good for us as we were only staying the one night and so it worked well. Easy to get access to and great location for penguin viewing etc.

Ventnor

We thought we had booked a 3 bedroom house but it was a 2 bedroom with a locked bungalow! We thought there was a dog smell and that the spare blankets had dog hair on them! It was fairly cold in the bedrooms. We should have been told not to park on the lawn because we got bogged!

Christmas on Phillip Island

Lovely location down the end of Settlement Road. Views to the west over golf course and across the bay. House a bit tired, but the bungalow out the back was the star. Home is dog friendly so that was a plus for us Host was quick to respond to any enquiries and always helpful. 15 minute walk to bay beaches and a more quiet location on Red Rocks Rd, was rather nice.
