The buildings are large and spacious and are designed in a special way, where you can rent apartments as separate and private for couples or small families, selecting either the upstairs apartments with a view looking over Geelong or down stairs that has a lovely private courtyard. You can also unlock certain doors to enable larger families to rent this property as a three bedroom townhouse that can hold up to 12 guests. In turn each of the townhouses are designed then to link on to the other similar townhouses through adjoining gates in the rear courtyards to combine all of the 6 townhouses to accommodate up to 66 guests for large family gatherings; or a place for large groups to stay (including bucks and hens nights); weddings; clubs or business groups to meet up.
