We loved this place, it's tucked away from the main busy spots of the peninsula so it's a great place to relax, but also easy to get around. It's close to the hot springs and Cape Schanck, and 30 mins from Fort Nepean and Red Hill, so it's also kind of in the middle! The view was stunning even on the cloudy day we had, we ended up having brekkie out there a couple days. Christine & Tom were very helpful, fast & friendly to deal with. I also highly recommend stargazing on the lower deck on a clear night - stunning. We would come here again for a chill out holiday and enjoy the spa bath and deck some more. Thanks!!
Slightly enhanced photo from stargazing - you will see some 'dusty/cloudy' bits of the milky way with the naked eye.

So good, had to come back for more!

Brilliant property with a fantastic vibe! My wife and I stayed at this wonderful house just 3 weeks earlier and decided to re book and do it all over again three weeks later because it was simply that amazing. Wonderful host, incredible spa, brilliant views and the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. It was a dream and it was even better the second time around!

Our stay was nice enough but i probably wouldn't opt here to stay again.Some good things about the property is that it's in an excellent location, close to the beach, amazing views and good sunlight during the first half of the day. However, there is room for improvement. The place could really do with a good deep clean; lots of dusty surfaces and floors that can make you feel a bit ick when it's not your own house/ dust. There was no top sheet on the bed (not the end of the world but also feels a bit off when not your own bed), the BBQ didn't work (either that or we were doing something wrong), the bath tub was dusty/ sandy, and the shower has a tendency to flood the bathroom if you're not careful with opening/ closing the door. Also (along with probably every other bnb in history) there was a selection of scratched and over-used teflon pans, which we opted out of using. The bed is definitely more on the plush side however we found it a bit saggy and gave us sore backs (obviously this is just down to personal preference). Lastly the decor is a little dated, again personal preference, but made things feel a bit cluttered. None of these things totally ruined our stay, we still had a lovely time. However I feel they are all really easy things to change/ implement in the future. Given the price we paid, this place just missed the mark.

Long weekend away

It was so lovely and owners were so hospitable everything was clean and convenient One downfall and suggestion to have a ceiling fan or air conditioner being down stairs as was still really hot with only one air conditioner.There were also curtains missing upstairs and down making it also a lot hotter over the day and a struggle for the one air conditioner to cool down the whole place.Everything else was lovely the spa was relaxing bed was cumfy, outdoor setting was great! We loved it overall.Thank you for having us.
