Last minutes decisions were turned out to be one of our favorite
If you would like to look for a peaceful getaway, this place IS perfect. Well thought amenities and kitchen things were wonderful and my teenage kids loved the pods. Our dog loved rum around in a secure back and front yard. It was quiet next to Melbourne University Forestry faculty and the sunsets view were very peaceful in a country side. The bikes in a shed were also very useful, and kids explored some tracks. Perfect relaxing holiday!

Old timers fishing
As per our previous stay last year the property was immaculate on arrival and well appointed. Sharon is a great host. Sad to say but the fishing at Newlyn was below par.....

Fantastic
The house on the hill is comfortable, clean and well equipped. The house was easy to find, well located in town without being noisy. Loved seeing the kangaroos munching on the grass when going for a walk down the street in the evening!
