The Cottage was well appointed and styled; cosy and comfortable. The deck was a delightful surprise from which to watch the birdlife and listen to bellbirds. We enjoyed the proximity to wineries, restaurants and townships on the peninsula from our cottage home base.

The cottage is always spotlessly clean. We have returned many times for its homely comfort, the beautiful surroundings and accessibility to the many attractions on the Mornington peninsula. One of our favourite getaways.

Lovely peaceful stay!

We were two couples, cottage was ideal, Catherine was a lovely host and made us welcome and was available if needed. We loved our stay, very close to wineries. We also cooked dinner one night in the well equipped kitchen and it was handy having a washing machine. We would definitely book again and the cottage is highly recommended.

Loved being back here, the cottage was spotless and ready for us to settle into. Our dog loves the big fenced garden. We have visited this property a number of times as it is perfect for a relaxing weekend of reading an doing nothing, or heading out to explore the wine and food of the area.

Perfect & Peaceful

We had a lovely stay. Everything we needed was there, the kitchen was well equipped & beds were comfy. Quiet location, with a lovely outlook from the deck.Would be a great spot in winter too, a cosy cottage with a wood fire and lots to see and do locally. Our host was friendly and helpful.

Great country location

This is a lovely place to stay on the Peninsula. Close to towns but next to a reserve with excellent walks, it's handy for everything. The cottage is very well set up with heaps of room and a peaceful and calming atmosphere. I'd stay again.

Had an excellent stay. So peaceful and relaxing and a good recharging of the batteries. We had 2 labrador pups with us who enjoyed it equally. The host, Caroline, was lovely and couldn't have been more helpful. 10/10 would stay again, highly recommend .
