Getaway with friends

Travelled down from NSW for a catch up with friends and couldn’t be happier with the property. Stunning house, beautiful gardens and the pool was great. Communication with the host was prompt and considerate. 10/10 for our stay.

The house is a wonderful replica of a Victorian era home, plenty of space for family groups. We had a family of 5 and it was ample for us. The pool was used by the younger crowd, however they noted it was deeper than it looks even for my over 6ft tall son. Marie was a generous host allowing us to check in early due to flights arriving early. The only recommendation and they are first world problems would be the towels being black would leave lots of lint behind, and maybe due to our request to access the house early it was dusty and there were a few cobwebs. However, I would stay again. It’s close to the tram, cafes, and we went to an Italian restaurant called Mother Dough in Hawthorn which I would highly recommend as an alternative to the city. The suburb is very peaceful and quiet and all locals were friendly and happy. Thank you Marie, I have no doubt we will be back. I loved the details of the house. Magnificent.

Best place to stay

We were a mixed family group who came from all over the world for a family wedding. That everyone was able to all stay together in this amazing house made our catch up extra special. The house is fantastic - lots of space, well equipped, beautifully furnished. Absolutely loved it
