Great family friendly stay in the heart of the Sorrento/Blairgowrie district. Clean & comfortable, with plenty of space. Nothing too fancy but adequately appointed and welcoming. Thanks

Very comfortable house for chilled out stay
The house is perfect for a beach getaway - everything you need to eat in or just a 5 minute drive to Blairgowrie shops and eateries, or a little further to Sorrento. Would like to come back when it's not so busy and do more exploring. My only hardship (first world problem, I know) is not having a bath to soak in at the end of the day.

Thanks for your feedback Samantha. We look forward to hosting you and your family again soon.
The house is terrific, comfortable and in a beautiful setting within close proximity to both front and back beaches. Communication was excellent, which made everything so easy. We really enjoyed our stay.
The property manager was lovely and responsive. The property was clean but there were some issues. When we arrived there wasn’t the amount of linen ordered, the double bed had a single bed doona on it and one of the single beds didn’t have any linen at all. The double beds were so uncomfortable that people ended up sleeping on single mattresses on the floor. The ensuite shower is tiny and the adult men couldn’t fit in it. The washing machine doesn’t work properly and although the location is great and the property manager responded quickly to requests or issues we wouldn’t stay again. The property is nice but things are getting worn and not upgraded or replaced which means that whilst they look nice, they aren’t necessarily comfortable or functional.
Great spot right in the middle of the peninsular with both sides 15mins walking distance. House is cosy with a great fireplace and has a well equiped kitchen. Owners were easy to work with and had great communication. Would happily stay here again. Only caveat is that linen is an opt in extra cost which we decided to skip however didn’t realise we would also need to bring kitchen tea towels and bathmats. Will remember for next time!
We had a wonderful break at Pine Lodge, Blairgowrie. The house was lovely, with the backyard activities perfect for our energetic family. Our hosts were very thoughtful and generous, providing lots of little and not so little (lots of firewood for cold winter nights) extras. We enjoyed exploring the Pensinsula from this lovely home! Thank you for our stay!
This place was a dream - space - fire place - the sounds of the waves. Place was clean Emily the host was amazing always a text message away!!! Thankyou for sharing your beautiful space with us , thank you x

Feedback on Pine Lodge accommodation
A neat and clean home, surrounded by trees with great facilities. Good for families with children who wish to utilise the games. Fantastic area for our pet dog who was safe and comfortable in her new surroundings for the duration of the stay.
Excellent sized rooms and modern kitchen with comfortable furnishings. Would highly recommend this home and stay here again in the future. Great locations for walks to the beach and shops. Thanks Pine Lodge for making our holiday truly wonderful! Louise and Craig :)

Birthday weekend celebrations
Thankyou for a wonderful memorable weekend away to celebrate my 50th birthday. We enjoyed the property as it had so much to offer especially the kitchen which had many unexpected extras, such as the coffee machine and ice supplied in the freezer. We spent a lot of time outdoors watching the children play and enjoy the trampoline and swing. We will recommend this property to others. Cliff and Jeanette

Fabulous winter getaway
We stayed here with a group and it was a magnificent home for a weekend away with friends. Facilities were fantastic, and on a cold weekend the log fire and cosy living area were just perfect. Everything just so comfortable and we really appreciated the attention to detail. The owners couldn't have been more helpful with our queries in the lead up. Can't wait to return in summer!
