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).

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.

Relaxing getaway

The property was easily walkable to the shops and cafes, and was also just out of the way of the main road so no traffic. was very easy to get around and enjoy the beach, golf course and the rest of the town, or get out on the Great Ocean Road.

Conveniently located

The house was in good order and although a bit outdated, it was clean and tidy. Some small things could make it better, like teabags, sugar and instant coffee. Nothing fancy or expensive, just a nice touch in case you arrive too late to buy some. Also, in the house description; they should mention these things and that there is no soap either. If you rent out a house like this, be prepared to supply some basic items. Overall, we were very happy with the location and the comfort the home offered for a short stay.
