Everything you need.

Wisteria Cottage is such a beautiful property - we did not want to leave! We stayed for a weekend with kids and it was wonderful. Perfect location, directly opposite and safe and calm beach and easy walking distance to local general store. It has gorgeous gardens in front and back. The house has been furnished beautifully and every detail has been considered. The beds are super comfy and kitchen really well equipped. It had absolutely everything we needed for a great stay. We hope to stay again soon!

Wisteria Cottage

Wonderful cottage aswell as separate studio located at Indented Head. Complete with everything you could possibly need. Fabulous location. Centrally located to St Leonard's, Portarlington and Queenscliff. So much to do and see. If you are lucky you might get a glimpse of Melbourne. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay. We hope to visit again. Thankyou to Simon and Hazel for hosting us.

Sensational

We felt very fortunate to have three glorious, sunny days in this wonderful property with our extended family of 10. The beautifully maintained gardens were lovely to spend time outside, and the generous owners allowed our puppy to join in the fun. The backyard playground is perfect for little and bigger kids, and we happily saw ipads put aside for swings. We felt so comfortable in the fully equipped cottage and studio. It was an honour to create memories here.

Like staying at good friends' holiday house

We all had a very relaxing, peaceful time. It was clean, comfortable and decorated in an eclectic fashion - far from the sterile feeling you often get at holiday apartments or studios. Marvelously equipped kitchen meant we could cook up almost any dish - excellent array of spices, condiments, etc. along with Air Fryer, Microwave, etc. Bedrooms were comfortable with simple storage. Bungalow/studio provided privacy for other adult of extended family. Was a bit envious of their bathroom. Both back and front yards were very secure, ensuring the Labrador and Golden Retriever stayed within the property. The view from the front verandah across to the beach and bay beyond provided a calming balm to all us. Looking forward to returning again some time.

Idyllic Getaway

My family stayed a few nights at Wisteria Cottage. We loved the warmth and feel of the cottage, and maximised the most of our stay with the studio, giving everyone that bit of extra room to feel comfortable. Our dogs loved the location being right across from the water. The whole family enjoyed the large yard and made the most of the space. A great location and a lovely house made this a fantastic weekend away for the family
