Family Escape is an ideal place to stay with children in Lorne and accommodates 2 families easily. It has great facilities, is spacious,clean, and has all the mod cons. It is also just a short walk from the beach and shops. We had a very relaxing time and will recommend it to friends and family.

Our extended family stayed at Family Escape for our daughter's wedding. The house was great - very clean, very well equipped and the accommodation suited us very well - 3 children, a baby and 8 adults. Position was great - only a short walk to the centre of town. The weather could have been better though.

Very happy with the accommodation that was provided the rooms were immaculate with very comfortable beds. The entertaining area was spot on and roomy we will definitely come back again especially as it was in a quiet area but still close to the beach and shops.

A beautiful surrounding for what was a perfect family holiday we had everything we could possibly hope for plus more the native birds on the verandah of a morning and night time were a special treat and the proximity to the shopping district and beaches was superb. We arrived parked our car and didn't drive again until we left!

What a wonderful few days we had in your home! Peace and tranquility, all a stones throw away from the main street. Must say this was one of the best equipped kitchens I have ever seen in a rental home.
The cockies and kookaburras were welcome visitors whenever we sat on the veranda.

We had a great time! The house was lovely, very spacious, fully equipted with everthing you could possibly need. The house had a lovely balcony where you can BBQ and a great fire place inside to cosy up in front of. Really enjoyed our time there and would love to visit again. P.S if you leave some bread out the cockies and rosellas will come down and sit with you and eat from your hand.

Our family girls weekend was a huge success due to the terrific amenities at "family escape" in Lorne. Leanne is a gracious host and the house is very well stocked with everything we needed. All guests commented on how comfortable the beds were!! We also loved the open fire place and the balcony.
Thanks Leanne.

We had the best time. It was such a comfortable place to stay with a fantastic deck to sit on. The rooms were just what we needed to sleep 5 couples very comfortably for a weekend away. We weren't on top of each other, we had heaps of room. The kitchen was set up with everything we needed. The only disappointment would have been that you cannot access the downstairs part of the house from inside the top floor. It can only be accessed from the outside - though, that was only a small problem. The location to everything in Lorne is fantastic so you can walk everywhere. It would also be a great place for two families to stay. We will definetely stay there again. *****

The house is conveniently located a short walk from the beach and the cafes and shops. Being split into 2 self contained units worked well for our family as the grandparents could have some peace and quiet downstairs while the children could be with us upstairs. The house was well equipped and furnished.

I've just read some of the reviews and completely agree that this is a gorgeous beach house! We loved our week at Lorne - the accommodation was everything you could want in a beach house. We shared with another family who had their own space but we all enjoyed the upstairs area together. Barbies (BBQ's) on the balcony each evening were a real hit with the kids when the cockatoos and kookaburras came visiting later. We also saw an echidna and koala over the road. Leanne was very helpful too. Many thanks!

Very confortable beds, excellent heating, superb open fire and fully equipped kitchen. We were a largish group, and we felt that the house was spacious enough to accomodate us very nicely. Thanks you Leanne for a wonderful weekend, i am sure we will return soon!

What a beautiful property, spacious, modern and clean. The real log fire worked a treat and heated the living area nicely. There were 8 adults the weekend we visited and there was plenty of room both from a living and sleeping perspective. Everyone really enjoyed themselves and were impressed by the property and its facilities.
Leanne was great, all the instructions were clear and we have passed on our recommendadtions to friends.
We recommend if you stay in the winter you plan to get wood early as it isn't sold in many places and runs out quickly on a weekend. Try the hardware store on the main drag early in the day.

We enjoyed our stay here and would stay again. The property has everything you need or could want for a weekend away - including an incredibly well equipped kitchen should you want to cook (we only did once, as it's so close to the shops and cafe's at Lorne). The fit out it very clean and comfortable and well appointed for a big family or group of friends.
