Peaceful view out the window towards the escarpment and chicken coop while sitting in bed with a cup of tea. Lovely quiet location, mattress was really comfortable, got amazing sleep. Great bedding (natural fibers!), no artificial fragrances. Would absolutely come back.

Rosemary was an outstanding host. The accomodation was very comfortable, and just what our family needed. Our young girls liked saying hello to the chooks every morning and the generous breakfast options left for us were delicious. We also loved exploring the beaches in and around Austinmer, some of which were an easy walk away! Highly recommend.

Great weekend break away.

This property is a quiet, comfortable, clean, home away from home. The location is superb with a short walk to beaches and cafes, set in a lovely quiet suburb. The owner's hospitality made us feel welcome and relaxed. A lovely stay!

Rosemary was incredibly welcoming. This isn't a "you have been sent the code to the lockbox, sort yourself out" type of BnB. This is a classic welcoming "here's some bread I've just baked" type of BnB. Very highly recommended

Roadtrip stopover

We enjoyed a relaxing night at Austinmer Gardens B&B on our road trip with our 2 puppies. Accommodation was very comfortable and is in a great location. Breakfast was very good with freshly baked bread and lots of other options too. Highly recommend a stay at this B&B. We would gladly stay here again!

Great hidden gem

Great spot for a short stay - close to beaches and shops yet very quiet. Rosemary looked after us very well even though we were only there for 1 night as we were attending a wedding. We had everything we could have needed and enjoyed our visit.
