We had such a great time at the cottage.Very peaceful and took in the frosty morning sunshine over the olive trees that line the backyard, a vineyard behind that. Loved seeing the bird life near the lake and flying over. Even a family of rabbits make an appearance. Our dog enjoyed all the new smells around the farm. The restored cottage is gorgeous. Loved the comfort of the bed and couches. Beautifully furnished and very homely. Property is in a good location and close to the main shops and just a very short drive to Lake Connewarre or Queenscliff. Pat is a wonderful host and was flexible with check in/out times too. Would absolutely stay here again. Thank you Pat.

We had a wonderful stay. The property is private with beautiful views. It’s so peaceful and we left feeling so relaxed! Its fully equipped kitchen made it easy to cook meals plus its location was close to shops etc making it such an easy stay. There were 3 couples staying total, it’s worth nothing the third bedroom is a second living room with a sofa bed but can be completely closed off / private.

Had a lovely time at the Farm Cottage. It's not only a pretty home, it's also been really thoughtfully kitted-out. It's always nice when a place has clearly been set up with liveability in mind. The kitchen was really well equipped. Any supplies we needed were available. Plenty of nice places to visit nearby. You won't find many better 2-bedroom stays around.

We were suitably impressed with the detail that went into the refurbishment of the house itself and were happy to let our little ones play in the back yard. Comfortable place to stay with central heating and cooling. Pat answered any questions we had in reasonable time and manner. We would stay again.

Farm Cottage is the most perfect dog-friendly haven, and Pat has thought of everything to ensure a relaxing and comfortable stay. Talking of comfort, the beds are incredible - haven’t slept that well in a long time - and the bath was great. There are shops only a short drive away, so many beaches nearby and my dog loved the wide open fields right outside to explore. It’s very quiet and the stars at night are incredible. Highly recommend, I would happily return to stay again.

A lovely cottage

All the vibes of a country getaway with the convenience of being near Geelong and the Peninsula. We had such a great time staying at Pat's cottage. Fully stocked so we could have a little breakfast one day and a fire at night the next. Thanks for building such a nice place to escape.

Delightful getaway with excellent host

This was such a beautiful farm cottage, close to town and the beach, exactly as advertised, very clean and comfortable and extremely well equipped. We had the most wonderful time enjoying the outdoor space, breathing the fresh air and listening to the birds. The host was an excellent communicator which made everything super smooth. Would absolutely recommend this property for a quiet getaway.

We have visited multiple times and have enjoyed ourselves every time... Pat is very welcoming and flexible with check in / check out times where possible... Great location, near wineries and shops, but far enough to feel like you are staying in the country.

A lovely stay

We really enjoyed our stay here at this beautiful cottage. We brought our large Dalmatian and he had an absolute ball. The cottage is beautifully renovated and furnished and it has such a lovely feel to it. We all enjoyed sitting out on the grass watching the wildlife running around while the sun was setting. I am very picky when it comes to accommodation, especially ones that are dog friendly, and we would absolutely not hesitate to book and stay here again. Thankyou Pat for your hospitality. Alishia, Jake, and Dougie.

Home Away From Home

This home away from home gave us a space to come together as a family from interstate for the holiday season. From the young, old and the furry, we have created memories in this home that we will all cherish together. It is such a beautiful property with everything inside and out that truly made it feel like home. As I sit here, writing this review, the sunset over the field, watching the rabbits run around having a cold drink on the front deck and thank you for giving us the opportunity to come together.From The Dyers

Wine tasting bird watchers

A perfect facility for our needs on the long weekend. We were able to travel around the Peninsula during the day whilst enjoying breakfasts and dinners at home. Just a couple of comments. The website didn’t indicate that there was an en suite and that the 3rd room was a very adequate bedroom. Also the spout in the en-suite is loose Another suggestion… it may be worth considering more functional bedside lamps to read by. Just a thought. Thanks for the opportunity
