The house was OK. But compared to many other short rentals, it was not well equipped / supplied. Advice for people would be to pack everything that you might need.

Warm and cosy

Nice wood heater that kept it warm and toasty. The house met all our needs and we walked to the pub for dinner. We enjoyed a beach walk at Childers Cove and also the dune walk from Princetown (Great Ocean Walk).

Relaxing getaway

The property was easily walkable to the shops and cafes, and was also just out of the way of the main road so no traffic. was very easy to get around and enjoy the beach, golf course and the rest of the town, or get out on the Great Ocean Road.
