A great property, perfect for our group. Wide sea views, comfortable large living area, well equipped and easy to stay. Kitchen size generous, bedrooms comfortable - ideal for large group. Sheltered swimming beach below and easy 3 km walk into Port Fairy. Highly recommended.

Great house and location. Shame about the dust and cobwebs

Could be a really great place to stay in because of the design and location of the house. Pity there was dust on and around some furniture, cobwebs and dead insects on kitchen counter.
