Best place to stay in Cape Bridgewater. Beautiful, historic home with glorious views and lakes, beaches, caves and trails at the doorstep. Loved the cosy fireplaces and fully equipped kitchen. We had a koala come up to the house one evening! Viona and Hayne are wonderful hosts who really care about your experience. Thank you, we will be back.

Beautiful place

The house was amazing. Everything about it was amazing including the history of the house, the renovations on the house, the views from the property, the welcoming of the owners, and the activities in the area. We will definitely stay there again if we get a chance.

An amazing stay

The Lake House is an exceptional place to stay with sweeping vistas and being close to nature. It truly is wonderful this family shares this beloved historical property with others. The home is very welcoming, well appointed with different spots to sit, enjoy and relax. The fires kept us cosy and were a treat after a day walking and exploring. We had a wonderful stay and will be back!

Beautiful inside and out

Absolutely enjoyed our stay at the Lakes House. The house was spacious, well equipped and homely. There was so much to do: caves, hills, lakes, exploring, beach, walks and stars. We hope to come back again one day.
