The house was very well appointed, immaculately clean and is light, bright and spacious. The house is well located and affords spectacular views, worthy of gazing all day long.

Jennifer Australia

This is an incredible property! The picture window with two lounge chairs in the bedroom look out onto a spectacular, stunning view of the coastline. The house is well appointed and stocked with everything you can ask for and more. The host is delightful, as well. We only wish we could have stayed much, much longer.

Diane United States of America

Beautiful location and property with the most amazing views.

Amy Australia

The best place on the top of the hill, overlook the sea shore, a bet stunning view. The property is very new and exvellent urnished. Simple breakfast is provided.

Bassanio Australia

This is a classy property. If you like the nice things in life, the aesthetically pleasing ones - you will like it here. Its tastefully decorated, offers an excellent view and well appointed kitchen. Showers, beds, everything that makes or breaks the experience - were all top notch. This is not some cheap, ikea-furnished apartment. It's really a carefully designed, clean, well maintained villa.

Lukasz Netherlands

Thank you for such a fabulous stay. We loved the view, the facility and the wine was really nice as well. We sat back with the wine and relaxed on the verandah looking at the view and enjoyed seeing all the bird life and cattle. It was just what we needed. The bed was so so comfortable and we did enjoy all of the facilities including the spa bath along with the view from it and the bedroom. I could not ask for anything different as all was superb thank you. HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS OUTSTANDING HOUSE AND THE SERVICE POVIDED BY THE OWNERS.

Anthony Australia

The beautiful view. The way the owner have anticipated everything that we may have needed. All of the little touches. Meditation and yoga on the deck( byo mat). The leather chairs in the master bedroom to just watch the view and be still.

Wayne Australia

The property exceeded our expectations. Perfect in every way. The attention to detail is fantastic. The wonderful host were just a phone call away. Waking to the sun rising over the ocean as some friendly cows strolled by was amazing. Great value, will stay here again and will recommend to everyone.

Annette Australia

The view from every window is phenomenal and the hosts are so inviting! What a perfect quiet getaway and so very romantic.

Chenae Australia

Great views and location, very comfortable and quiet.

Host Info

Host Review Score 10

Rejuvenate in comfort and seclusion atop a spectacular hillside overlooking the green rolling hills of the North West with expansive views over Bass Strait. This boutique accommodation leaves nothing between you and the horizon. Come and have a farm stay.

The farm on which we live has been in the family for generations. Ben and Leonie have farmed this area for all their married live, growing crops on the surrounding hills. moving into the tourism accommodation sector was an obvious move for such a spectacular part of the world.

The neighborhood is really quiet with the retreat the only building on a 10 acres title. The neighbors are a good distance away and are usually never seen, except to waive a friendly g'day. there are only three neighbors who you could classify as hermits!
