to get started.

The wood-fire heater was on to welcome us when we got there. It was a nice touch for our arrival on a cold day. The place was comfortable to stay at. We chose this place to give an overseas visitor an Australian experience and we weren't disappointed. The native wildlife experience was enjoyable.

Lilian, Australia

Lovely, no frills accommodation in a quiet, bush setting with a stunning view of the bush from the balcony (complete with a rainbow for us!). We stayed in the middle of winter and were concerned about feeling cold, but the heater and electric blankets on the bed kept us nice and cosy. Unfortunately we didn't get to utilise the beautiful view from the balcony as it was very cold, but we can't wait to come back in the warmer months! You would need a car to stay here as it's outside of the town centre, but worth it to feel immersed in the bush. The owner was super helpful, even coming out at night to assist us with an electricity issue (which he resolved promptly).

Naz, Mexico

We liked everything about it, the views were beautiful, it was peaceful, so much better than a hotel, would highly recommend it.

Annette, Australia

Location, views from veranda, being woken by the Kookaburra call at 5.30 😃 Natural, nature trail walk around site, where found the views of ocean from on high. 1st experience glamping, host had come by to close up tent to preserve some heat, as we were off exploring further along ocean road til nearly dark. Surprisingly cold on our return, but heater available to use. Bed very comfortable. Play area for children (past all that!) Masses of places to chose from to eat in Lorne, good information pack available in unit.

눉The bath was slippery. Both of us nearly fell - we're not frail. Perhaps a rail? Also, the tap on the bath is difficult to reach - we had to use a broom to turn it off.
눇Facility owners were really helpful and accommodating. Loved the fact that on the second night, when we came home after dark, the lights were on the cottage and the fire lit. Really thoughtful and welcoming!

눉Given price (I know it's high summer, but....) only minimal welcome pack (milk to allow only 3 cups of tea/coffee!). Surprised no fairtrade products used given Eco approach. Reasonable amount of traffic on nearby road.
