Warm, comfortable and spacious
Veuve Cottage is a lovely relaxing holiday house, spacious, warm and comfortable, with additions such as trampoline, outdoor fire pit, large BBQ, swing pod chair and outdoor dining and entertaining area. Kristiana was very helpful and is keen to ensure that all goes well with your stay at Veuve Cottage.
It is close to parks and children play grounds and easy walk to central Barwon Heads shops and cafes.
We enjoy our stay at Veuve Cottage and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place to stay at Barwon Heads.

Ok but without a good night's sleep
Upon arrival, my husband had to clean the barbecue before cooking our dinner, one of the blinds fell off the window and the hot water ran out but it was the bedding on offer that was the biggest disappointment. Not one mattress was comfortable and even the kids asked to sleep on the couch. The location was good and we fell in love with Barwon Heads. We will definitely be back but not to Veuve cottage.

Points forts : Arrivée, communication et emplacement.
Points faibles : Propreté
Barwon Veuve suited our holiday plans very well and is in a great location close to to the beach and opposite the nature reserve. It has a very well equipped kitchen and the BBQ was clean.The house wasn't as clean as I would expect. The oven tray in the oven was obviously not cleaned after its last use and a number of the pans were dirty and needed to be washed before use. No dishcloths, sponges or dish brushes were provided so we needed to purchase. There was a large piece of chewing gum adhered to the top of the outdoor table which I had to scrape off before setting which was pretty disgusting actually (can provide photo).I suggest the house needs some TLC - the exhaust fan cover in the main bathroom fell off and hit my son on the head while he was showering. The light switch in that bathroom is broken and meant we couldn't switch off the light. The toilet seat in the back bathroom does not stay up.

Great Dog Friendly accommodation
This property is ideal for those who want a getaway with pets. It has a good backyard that is fully enclosed but I would take a bike lock or similar as the rear gate latch is a nail with piece of string. A boisterous dog may push its way thru. The front gate could also use an additional lock as well. The interior is great with ample space for all and you feel very much at home. Heating within the premises is good however the fire box is old and not as efficient as it could be. There was an abundance of wood. Having said that there are two split systems that warm the house sufficiently. We recommend this accommodation to pet owners!!

Great for families
Great space for families with a beautiful front lounge room, a great kid-friendly rear living area, many beds and two great private and enclosed spaces in the front and back yard, one with a nice firepit. Both yard spaces safe for young kids as they can be closed off with gates. The Veuve in the kitchen is a sight to behold!
We had some minor cleanliness issues that I think may just have been missed and will be fixed for the next guests. We also found that the high chair in the listing wasn't there, but on enquiring Marisa had one delivered to us in under an hour on Christmas Eve no less! Amazing service.
A note that we didn't quite find the room configuration as we expected, but we may have misread the listing. For clarity, there are two queen beds, two pairs of single bunk beds, a single bed and a fold out couch.
Overall a great place for our two young families, would stay again.

Fantastic family stay
Fantastic house for families (and multiple families) to stay together. Great space, inside and out, for kids to play. The gated driveway ensures you always know they are safe.
Plenty of room for grown ups to relax and socialise when the kids are napping/sleeping.
Everything was easy and made for a great long weekend.

Great location to enjoy with family and fur family
This humble abode met all our needs as a family of 7. It was comfortable and location was in a lovely spot. It helped having the two bathrooms and had plenty of space for our fur baby to play. We were also able to have our cars and motobikes secured behind gates. Bowan Heads itself is a beautiful place to explore and we would definitely come back again.

Great for a Barwon Heads stay with a pet.
The property was ideal for the size of our group and our large but gentle dog. Marisa was communicative and accommodating with arranging linen at short notice and also in allowing us a late check out which we appreciated. All the facilities that we needed were present in the house.

Hi Amanda, I'm sorry to hear the bins were full and the house smelt musky. It is the responsibility of our guests to put the bins out and they must have forgotten. The house had not been stayed in for a couple of weeks before you arrived which would explain the house needing airing. I hope you enjoyed your stay anyway and we hope you do return. Kris 😊
