Meredith and her husband were wonderful guests, excellent communication. They left our beach house in immaculate condition most welcome to come back any time.
Our host made us feel very welcome. Excellent for dogs, facilities were very good and there are good walking tracks close by. Being oldies, it would have been nice to have a grab rail in the shower.

Thank you to Anne for sharing your beautiful home and gardens with us and our furry friends. The home was comfortable and beautifully appointed and the gardens and location so serene.
Our recent stay in Inverloch was a terrific break from the urban sprawl of Melbourne. The home’s thoughtful design struck the perfect balance between style and comfort, making it easy to relax the moment we arrived. Anne was a truly gracious host, warm, friendly, and welcoming, with just the right level of care and attention. The whole place had such a calm, chilled vibe that made it hard to leave. Our dog Lola liked it as well.
Lovely spaces - inside and out. Everything you could want! Walk to the beach or town, lots for the dogs to sniff - a little piece of heaven.Adding it to our bucket list to return to!

Theresa and Rex are delightful guests, It was lovely to welcome them back and look forward to hosting them again in the near future.
This property was just what we were looking for, something peaceful and surrounded by nature. The bird life and peaceful setting allowed us to unwind after a long week of work.It was an ideal place for us, our kids and dogs (the doggie door was well used and very welcome for the dogs).Anne was extremely welcoming and helpful - thank you for a wonderful weekend away.

Dear Kate
Thank you for choosing to stay at Invy Retreat. You were delightful guests and would be welcome back anytime.
Warm regards
Anne
Anne is very welcoming and easy to approach with any questions. The garden is amazing with a front and back verandahs to sit and enjoy the sun. The accomodation is well appointed with amazing book and jigsaw collections. Great modern kitchen and laundry facilities and you will stay very warm on cold days and nights. We were able to have our dogs who could be well contained in the back garden and front verandahs and be safe. We really enjoyed the space, the amazing leafy and flowering garden and quirky decorations. Thank you, we will be back! I'll pull more weeds next time.

Joel and Susan were delightful guests a pleasure to host, their two beautiful dogs were absolutely no trouble at all. Susan even pulled some weeds in my garden which was much appreciated. They are welcome to come back any time.
A wonderfully calm retreat set in a gorgeous garden, this gem was the highlight of our trip. Anne was a terrifically responsive and welcoming host and we enjoyed exploring Inverloch and its environs. The house is beautifully appointed and thoughtfully set up, and the enclosed decks and garden space are truly dog- friendly. We’ll definitely be back!
