Fabulous house for the price of a motel room! 2 god sized living rooms with huge tvs. Super comfortable beds. Loads of hot water for showers and baths. Soft fluffy towels. The kids loved all the toys and books. Well equipped kitchen. Loads of pantry space. Easy access to Sovereign Hill. Off street parking. Great communication. We will happily stay there again.
