We had a wonderful stay in Paynesville! Paynesville itself is delightful but what was even more delightful was the very warm welcome we received from Danny and Wendy, our hosts at Gippsland Lakes Retreat.
Gippsland Lakes Retreat was a great place to stay – so comfortable and really easy to live there. The bedroom we used was light and airy – and the bed was very comfortable. Lovely views of the garden and we woke to birdsong every morning. (Lots of bird visitors) The kitchen was very practical and the bathroom was a lovely Wet Room with plenty of space and every need catered for (shampoo, soap, towels etc – even a razor if you had forgotten yours!). The lounge was a comfortable space to watch the enormous TV but the best room for us was the Sun Room at the back. Such a lovely light and airy spot to sit when the wind was a bit fresh.
The garden was lovely – and a great size and very secure for dogs.
We wouldn’t hesitate to go back to Gippsland Lakes Retreat. It was clean, comfortable and as I said before, our hosts were so welcoming of us and our well behaved terriers.
Wendy and Danny gave helpful suggestions of where to go and what to do in texts and in information provided at the property. We enjoyed the “Welcome Gifts” as well – chocolates, wine, breakfast supplies to name just a few.(Even food for our four legged family members!). There were lots of nice touches – games (indoor and outdoor), magazines, DVDs to watch. Our hosts thought of everything!
Gippsland Lakes Retreat was a great find – thank you, Wendy and Danny!.
