Warm and cosy

Nice wood heater that kept it warm and toasty. The house met all our needs and we walked to the pub for dinner. We enjoyed a beach walk at Childers Cove and also the dune walk from Princetown (Great Ocean Walk).

Dog friendly home stay

This is our second time staying in this property. We love it for its location close to golf course, general store and beaches in quiet little Peterborough. Also wonderful to have our dog stay with us, with a fully enclosed back yard. Great to have a coonara heater mid Winter. The shower room is very small and a bit tricky to navigate, otherwise we really enjoyed our stay.

Quick and Pleasant trip to the GOR

Three of us just stayed the evening and were out early the next day. The house was clean, spacious and quiet. Just what we were looking for and as advertised. Would have loved to stay longer. Host was very accommodating and prompt in all communications. Thanks!

Peterborough dog friendly stay

As expected a little dog friendly beach shack. It was lacking a few staples for arrival and no BBQ. However it was quite comfortable otherwise.😊

Unfortunately a bad experience

Double beds were about to fall apart, one was that loose we didn't dare to use it so we chose the couch. Sand was on floor, coffee table and even on the bedding. On the side table we found nail clippings and there was proof of someone just had a shower leaving their wet towel behind.occuclean onlycland

Bugs

The location was good, the stay was good, the cleanliness and bugs however were not. Back splash in bathroom has dirt all over them, the walls and back of door in toilet has marks all up the walls. Dust everywhere. Then there are bugs, ants all over the kitchen window, cobwebs all on the ceiling.

Mindfulness

Peterborough always allows us to breathe for a brief moment - a break from work. We love this property and its proximity to the sea. Cosy and clean. Fire place on cool windy night. All that we require for a lovely weekend away.
