Great property in a great little town but not suitable for those with mobility issues. We had a wonderful stay and, unusually for us, we ate in a lot to appreciate the views

Sea view

Great house, plenty of space and comfy beds. The house is built on a very steep slope so it is built over 5 levels, therefore there are lots of stairs . The living room is very spacious. Most levels have outdoor areas which is lovely. There were kangaroos in the anrea that you could watch from the house in tte evening. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. We had a few minor issues mainly to do with the housekeeping but the owners were easy to communicate with and responsive so we got things resolved easily.. We would definitely recommend this house.

Nice stay for those who are fully mobile!

We were happy with everything about the place and our host - thanks for a great weekend. The only issue was the accessibility of the venue. It's a 4 level home, and the driveway is crazy steep so we couldn't safely take our car up there. It would be good if we were made aware of this prior to booking as my mother has mobility issues. All-in-all though, a great stay!

Loved this house, views are spectacular

Great house, spectacular views. Perfectly close to town so not a problem to walk in and back. There is a big huge hill which could be a challenge for some. We had a lovely time and enjoyed the house. Different levels gave our grown up kids their own space which was nice. Would definitely return.

Great spot with fantastic views. Bedroom setup is not as listed. Fold out beds in rooms with no blinds. Couple of the tvs did work. Down light out in ensuite off main bedroom. Aside from these points property was comfortable and relaxing.

Mixed

Loved the location, the view, the architecture, very comfortable for a family holiday. It had everything we needed and it was clean inside.However, our major concern was the rubbish, the bins were full and one had maggots in it which was very smelly. And all bins had every type of rubbish in them despite being designated glass recycling etc. Also the tap over the basin in the upstairs bathroom needed fixing. Despite these problems, we had a great holiday

Weekend getaway

Beautiful house with stunning views of the coast situated up high on a hill. It’s a nice and spacious house which is very comfortable. The only thing I suggest is some new glass wear as there are an abundance of beer glasses but minimal wine and champagne glasses

Accomm

Great property with a beautiful outlook. As it is elevated the driveway is very tricky and difficult to manoeuvre- this is the only thing I found really difficult. Although the house can sleep 8 there are no blinds for the two sofa beds so it is really bright in those spaces. The other bedrooms are very good and the main is spacious and comfortable. The host was very helpful.

Lorne Getaway for Grownups

A great stay, location was spot on provided you have a vehicle (which we did). Only suggestion is to service dishwasher (not draining) and light globe & fan in ensuite need replacement or service. Easily addressed and overall, a great place to stay. Great Ocean Rd is even better than I remembered.
