“It feels like home, though different and interesting at the same time. There is plenty of room, even enough for a formal dining room. The hosts are attentive and friendly, but without being intrusive. Great experience we'll go back whenever we visit the Bellarine area.” Read more

“A beautiful window into the history of The Vicarage but with all modern conveniences. Daryl is a wonderful host and attention to detail is amazing. Beautiful artwork is a delight, a very comfortable bed and quality linen is another plus. A lovely cheese platter was ready on our arrival and the breakfast spread was delicious. We had complete privacy during our stay. This would have to be one of the very best B&Bs we have stayed in. ” Read more

A short walk from the main street with its restaurants, pub and fish and chip shops, and from the pier area which is a great spot to relax and look out to sea. The Vicarage itself is all oldly worldly charm, comfy bed, inviting living room with all kinds of nick nacks that make a place warm and comfy. Breakfast is excellent - everything you could need to start the day. Highly recommended.” Read more

“Daryl and Annalene were exceptional hosts! They provided healthy and generous breakfasts for us (even a cheese platter when we arrived!). They ensured our needs were met. We were very impressed with their hospitality - Daryl picked us up at the ferry terminal and even offered to give us a ride to a winery if we could not book a taxi. They use high quality linens and toiletries. The house smells lovely too - good use of diffuser! We loved the location of the house - 2 minutes walk to the town center and 5 mins to the beach. Perfect stay and we would love to go back!” Read more
