Perfect weekend away on Great Ocean Road

Thankyou Amanda for being an amazingly, accomodating host. We needed a little get away right by the water and this did not disappoint. Allowing us to check in earlier, this was the perfect, homely batch, with everything you need! Walking distance to the most beautiful little bay. Kids absolutely loved feeding the local Cockatoos that they brought back their entire family for food lol Highly recommended to all at a great price and location! We will be back xx

Fantastic comfortable homely location

This was a wonderful little oasis to celebrate my 50th birthday with my family. Location is amazing! Views from the deck, living area and main bedroom are fabulous.
