Lovely pet friendly home with some cute retro touches, the most adorable one being the caravan. Clean and tidy with everything you need. Great sitting on the deck watching the kangaroos in the paddock opposite. Fully fenced and the pet enclosure is an added bonus.
Lovely location near a beach where we could actually walk the dog, how refreshing. Also clo to so many other interesting places including Wilson’s Promontory where the local restaurant with its views was fabulous.
We had such a relaxing time at Venus Bay, it's a lovely quiet hamlet. Far view had every mod con that you would need to stay in a holiday house and the view is gorgeous. We will definitely stay again.
This is a delightful house, clean, well equipped, and fantastic responsiveness from the owners. The separate caravan was perfect for our older teenager and we really appreciated how dog friendly it is. The views across the fields and or daily cow-watching were great too.
Well appointed cottage and cute caravan in a quiet rural location in Venus Bay. Loved the vintage decor with my 20 year old kids loving the retro caravan. Lovely views from the property and not too far from the beach.
A gorgeous home, in a delightful village. The home itself is stunning. Perfectly positioned, spacious and well cared for and provisioned. Highly recommended.
We had a wonderful stay at FarView, Venus Bay. The house is beautifully maintained, welcoming, and genuinely pet‑friendly. We travelled with our two elderly pugs, and they were perfectly comfortable the entire time. It’s clear the property is truly loved by its owners—everything is clean, tidy, open, and airy.This was our first time using Stayz, and if Joseph and Helen’s place is the benchmark, we’ll happily book through the platform again. The owners were easy to contact, thoughtful, and clearly care about their guests’ experience.Venus Bay itself is a quiet little town, which was exactly what we were looking for. A few more cafés and food options in the future would add some healthy competition, and the unpaved streets can get a bit dusty when cars pass or the wind picks up. That said, the town is very clean, and the beaches are absolutely pristine. The Surf Lifesaving Club deserves real credit—their presence makes the beaches feel safe and well‑looked‑after.We wouldn’t hesitate to stay at Joseph and Helen’s place again. It was excellent in every way, and we’re grateful for the care they put into making it such a comfortable getaway.
Great to be able to take the dogs with us for a short break. The animal enclosure off the side of the house gave us great comfort knowing the dogs were ok whilst we headed out. Great set up, comfortable and welcoming.
Great location and a comfortable, very well equiped house for our 2 night stay (including space for our two dogs). Like a home away from home. Would be happy to stay again.
As soon as we walked in we could see this house is well looked after . It had everything we needed and nice and close to the beach.
Wifi is a huge plus , next time we will bring our dog , Cat and Guinea pigs as the property is super secure .
It was a chilly weekend and the heating was fantastic .
The owners manual is high tech and easy to use .
Coffee machine was fantastic.
Thanks so much for the weekend get away .

Very comfortable home and very suitable for our dog too. Great location for those who love nature. Magnificent view of endless green, with peaceful cows and then windfarms on the horizon. Local wombats doing their thing. Watch for wombats and rabbits on the road! We were there in winter and the heating worked well. We enjoyed the off-peak experience of the area. No crowds to contend with. Make sure you go to Beach No.5, the most impressive view of all. Great food at nearby Riverview Hotel in Tarwin Lower. Bushwalkers (without dogs) should explore the wilderness of the Coastal Park.
Hosts prepared a detailed manual of local history, other info and handy hints; they were very responsive to any queries.
Had a glorious two day stay at Far View. This quaint home offered all we could’ve hoped for. Was spotless inside , was warm , comfortable, very well stocked, and secure for our puppy. Bathrooms have recently been stylishly renovated , shower was great and beds were snuggly. The view from the lounge & kitchen across open farmland was just so peaceful. Wouldn’t hesitate to stay again ........
We had a great stay at Far View, very clean property and had everything we needed. Extremely pet friendly which was lovely. We loved watching the kangaroos, bunnies and the overall view of the paddocks from the deck. Would definitely stay here again.
Accomadtion was fantastic. Grear that linen was supplied, the house was cozy but you felt like you had space. Day beds where super comfty. Seen resident wombat a few times. wish we could have stayed longer, house in great condition.
Overall lovely place to stay but tv channels are a problem, you can only get about 3 stations that are watchable but it is in a great location
Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2020

Thanks for the review. Yes, TV reception can be patchy at times thats why we provide free media streaming including Netflix, Stan, Prime and all the catch up TV channels
Wonderful communication with owners. House suited our family of 4 perfectly. (2 teenage boys). Small cute house but still allowing our boys their own privacy with a t.v in one of their rooms. We all really enjoyed the use of Stan and Netflix, as with the smoke haze we were stuck indoors for a few days. The local Wombat visited us a few nights which was fun. Beds very comfortable and kitchen and BBQ perfect for staying in to cook. The house is easy walking distance to town (shops) which we enjoyed doing every day. Thanks again Helen and Joseph for the use of your lovely house.
