We had a great time at wisteria cottage and studio. We loved the location and the house was cosy and lovely. The studio out the back was great too, provided space and privacy while been close to family too. Would definitely stay again
Great location right opposite the beach. Plenty of room and it was great to be able to take our dog. Simon was very easy to communicate with and we look forward to booking again.

Great property across the road from the beach. The house had everything we needed for a great stay. Thank you Simon for your flexibility and making our booking easy.
We enjoyed our stay in a lovely location. We would have liked to know about the caravans that were all along the beach that obstructed our view. Simon was very responsive to our feedback.A lovely home in a fantastic location.
Well stocked house with all items required. Fantastic for our dog, secure yard.
Directly opposite beach for long walks and stunning views across the bay to the city
My family stayed a few nights at Wisteria Cottage. We loved the warmth and feel of the cottage, and maximised the most of our stay with the studio, giving everyone that bit of extra room to feel comfortable.
Our dogs loved the location being right across from the water. The whole family enjoyed the large yard and made the most of the space.
A great location and a lovely house made this a fantastic weekend away for the family

Everything you need.
Wisteria Cottage is such a beautiful property - we did not want to leave! We stayed for a weekend with kids and it was wonderful. Perfect location, directly opposite and safe and calm beach and easy walking distance to local general store. It has gorgeous gardens in front and back. The house has been furnished beautifully and every detail has been considered. The beds are super comfy and kitchen really well equipped. It had absolutely everything we needed for a great stay. We hope to stay again soon!

Thanks for your kind words Georgia, so glad you enjoyed it, come back any time! Simon
Wonderful cottage aswell as separate studio located at Indented Head. Complete with everything you could possibly need. Fabulous location. Centrally located to St Leonard's, Portarlington and Queenscliff. So much to do and see. If you are lucky you might get a glimpse of Melbourne. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We hope to visit again. Thankyou to Simon and Hazel for hosting us.

Sensational
We felt very fortunate to have three glorious, sunny days in this wonderful property with our extended family of 10.
The beautifully maintained gardens were lovely to spend time outside, and the generous owners allowed our puppy to join in the fun. The backyard playground is perfect for little and bigger kids, and we happily saw ipads put aside for swings.
We felt so comfortable in the fully equipped cottage and studio. It was an honour to create memories here.
