The Ledge @ Peterborough is a modern four bedroom home which caters comfortably for up to 8 people with everything you need for a restful holiday.
Peterborough is one of the best kept secrets along the Great Ocean Road and is a tranquil and unspoilt coastal town. "The Ledge" is approximately 120 metres from Wild Dog Cove which is a protected bay perfect for exploring, swimming, diving (either snorkel or tanks) and has an abundance of fish and shell fish.
Accomodation comprises four bedrooms, master with king size bed, two queen size rooms and the fourth has two single beds. All rooms have built in robes. The generous family bathroom is modern with huge walk in shower and a relaxing bath. The front of the house is warmed and cooled with a reverse cycle air conditioner.
At the back of the house is the large north facing open plan family living area. The lounge has ample seating and a wood fire heater and opens via three panel slide aside glass doors onto the deck with views across farmland to the Curdies River. The deck is a lovely sunny place to relax and watch the children play on their own fort and slide. There is also a BBQ for your enjoyment. The modern kitchen has a central island bench and breakfast bar together with double sink, dishwasher and 5 burner gas cooktop and large electric oven. The kitchen overlooks the dining area with an eight seater dining table.
The laundry has a washing machine and dryer and separate toilet.
Outside, the property is fully enclosed which means the children are safe, there is an outside shower for after beach swims and off street parking for your boat. We DO NOT accept pets at The Ledge.
Peterborough has a fabulous cliff top walk which winds its way west towards the Bay of Martyrs. There is a seaside 9 hole golf course, local tennis courts and playground with BBQ facilities all within walking distance.
This part of the world is a fishermans paradise where you can fish the Curdies River or Lake system by boat or land for bream and mulloway. Launch your sea vessel at the amazing steep boat ramp and head out to the deep for snapper and tuna. Or fish the surf for whiting, flathead and salmon.
The iconic 12 Apostles, Loch Ard Gorge, Gibson Steps and other attractions are a short 20 minute drive along the Great Ocean Road. Once you have visited these don't forget to take in the 12 Apostles Gourmet Trail which features G.O.R.G.E Chocolates, Apostle Whey Cheese, Timboon Fine Ice Cream and the delicious meals at Timboon Railway Shed Distillery to mention but a few.
Port Campbell is a 7 minute drive along the GOR and has many restaurants and eateries to visit. The regional centre of Warrnambool is a 35 minute drive west where you can visit the fantastic playground of Lake Pertobe, Flagstaff Hill Maritime Village home of the Loch Ard Peacock or take a stroll through the streets to shop for something special.

Lovely place to stay for some R&R with the family.
This is the 2nd time we've stayed. We love staying in Peterborough, which is a little quieter but Deb & Greg's place has everything we need, easy access to go on walks and not far of a drive to explore along the great Ocean road.
Fantastic home away from home. Offering all of the conveniences of home. Fabulous area to explore. Quiet neighbourhood. And the beach is literally on the doorstep.
Thank you so much for hosting us at your property. It was clean, comfortable and ahd everything we needed. Our 4 year old especially enjoyed showering outdoors every evening! We hope to return next year. Deb is a fantastic host that made everything feel seamless - thanks again!
A beautiful home tastefully decorated ,comfortable beds ,quality bedding, modern bathroom, fully equiped kitchen , lovely deck with visits from lots of bird life blue wrens, honey eaters & yellow tailed black cockies flying over head ! Fantastic location walking distance to the beach . Communication with the owner was easy & effective . We hope to go back for another stay one day .
We had a wonderful stay in such a beautiful part of the world. The home is beautiful with lots of attention to detail and style. I particularly love the linen and the shower and bath. Our kids really enjoyed the backyard , the play area is great for little ones and the coastline nearby is totally sublime. Thanks to Deb for the really helpful and prompt communications.
Fantastic property offering everything you require. The beds are amazing. Best nights sleep. A home away from home. Brilliant location. The beach is very close by, quiet location and a lovely take away in the town centre with a great milkshake. Aswell as a general store where the staff are very helpful. Thankyou to the owners for looking after us. We had an amazing stay. The Ledge is a must for those visiting Victoria's south west.
Gorgeous house, convenient to everything on Great Ocean Road
Deb's place is brand new, with all the finishes you'd expect from a luxury rental. The kitchen sparkles and the living room furniture is stylish yet comfortable.
The house has four bedrooms, but only one bathroom which is a little odd. That makes it a terrific getaway for a couple or even a small family. But I suspect that the one bathroom might be an issue for groups of six or more. (Curiously, the toilet is in its own room, on the opposite side of the house from the sink, delightfully large shower, and even more delightfully large tub). Also, the air conditioning unit is in the hallway, so on a hot night, everyone would need to leave their bedroom doors open to stay cool.
But if your group is content to live with these small flaws, you won't find a nicer place to stay anywhere in Peterborough or Port Campbell.
Very nice clean home. Walk to beach. 5 minute drive to town or London Bridge.
We were a party of 5 adults. The home is spacious, clean and easy to navigate. Separate toilet room next to laundry sink was fine for 5 adults. Really a very good and affordable place. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend for those traveling the Great ocean Road. Very close to London Bridge.
Communication was mixed. I booked months in advance for 4 adults and received automated acceptance. The personal message I sent weeks in advance was not acknowledged until check in instructions arrived 3 days before check in. By check in, our party had grown to 5 adults but I did not communicate this (my fault) and there were only 2 beds made up and no sheets/ pillow cases for additional bedrooms / beds available.
Deb did go above and beyond to drive over an hour to set up the additional linens. We certainly appreciated that effort. Maybe in the future, consider having sheets and pillow cases available in bedroom closets.
One other note is that if you are staying during a hot night, the A/c unit is located in the hallway for all four bedrooms . So, you need to either keep your bedroom door open, or open windows. There was a portable fan in each bedroom which was a nice amenity.
Very suitable for our needs for 2 nights.Hard to believe in these times there was only one toilet.Could have replaced the bath!!!
Lots of entertaining areas.Would have liked to have the fire going if we were there longer or there in winter.No mention of Wifi anywhere.Instruction manual otherwise pretty good.Quiet area at our time of being there.Michael and Sue
Well placed and an easy drive to Port Campbell, the Apostles and other great but less visited costal spectacles like the Grotto, London Bridge and Bay of Islands.
During our stay the whole of Victoria was having a unusual super cool and very windy and wet November. Unfortunately the Air Conditioning chose the moment to fail. Deb urgently arranged a repair person but was unable to be fixed during out stay as was a weekend and poor weather. We used the fire place but still a bit chilly for us and a few rattles fromthe roof above.
Other than that well appointed and comfortable. Without storms its a very quiet location.
This property was wonderful, you could easily stay for extended periods. Beds extremely comfortable, very clean. Short walk to the beach. I would definitely recommend this property and stay there again.
We had a fantastic stay at this beautiful property. It was wonderful coming back to a cosy lounge after a day hiking along the Great Ocean Walk, and we loved having brekky with a book on the verandah too!
A stunning house, in a lovely spot. Can not recommend Deb and Greg enough. Such a wonderful couple. Used their house for our wedding and Deb left us a lovely bunch of flowers and a bottle of champagne. She also very kindly let us cancel last year with a full refund due to postponing our wedding last year due to Covid even with a no refund policy. A genuine lovely person xx
Great property, Great location!! Above all Owners of the property were lovely and understanding. This little Gem is really close to the beach, that even in the night time we enjoy our little walks. Will come back soon for longer stay!!
Property is clean and close to the beach.
Lots of light, and plenty of space for a group.
Deb and Greg are very easy to communicate with.
The listing perhaps need to be updated, houses across the road block beach views.
Overall quite modern and very comfortable, would recommend.
The owners were amazing we had to cancel last minute due to COVID. They could not have been kinder about the situation or more helpful to reorganize!!! The property was spotless and contained everything a family would need. It was quiet even with the very cute cow neighbors (LOL). Walking distance from beaches/walks etc. Very quiet. I highly recommend!!!!!
