Awesome location, comfortable property and great value for money.

Kate Australia

We loved the retro feel of this property. It had everything we needed although we needed to buy toilet paper as there was none that we could find. We feel this was an unintended oversight. Excellent location and fantastic view. Beds were comfy. Lovely big lounge and lots of private little sitting areas if needed. We would definitely stay again.

그에이트 오션 로드의 시작지점 마을 토르퀘이의 전망좋은 해변저택이다. 주변 경치는 이보다 좋을수가 있을까? 바로 문열고 나가면 해변이 넓게 펼쳐지고 산책하기 좋은 공원도 주변에 있고 아침식사할수있는 카페도 근처에 있어 편리했다. 주인이 전날부터 자세한 키 수령방법을 메일로 알려왔고 어렵지 않게 체크인 할수있었다. 이층구조로 되어있고 특히 이층에는 자연채광을 사용해 주간에 멋진 햇살을 집안에서 맞이할수 있다. 식기나 주방 시설은 주인이 직접 사용하는 것들이고 고급스러웠다. 넉넉한 방넓이에 안락한 소품들이 우리에게 멋진 하룻밤을 선사했다. 호주에 도착해서 첫날 이런 멋진 주택을 만날줄이야...

Please note that Bookings has not updated the general description due to Covid Technical Issues. The photographs are correct and this is the correct description: This spacious ground level two-bedroom apartment built within a house has a fantastic view of the beach from the newly furnished lounge. There is an adjoining kitchenette with a dishwasher, fridge/freezer and microwave convection oven (no normal oven) and plenty of cooking facilities. The master bedroom has a Queen bed and lots of built in wardrobes and there is a smaller room with spectacular sea views and a double bed and fold out single bed (bedding is available if requested). There is also a large bathroom with a huge shower and toilet and separate laundry with large washing machine and dryer. This property is newly renovated in a spectacular location with easy access to everything you need; walking distance to cafes, bars, restaurants, supermarkets, parkland, playground and main shopping area. Close to surf beaches and gateway to the world famous Great Ocean Road. The property can be booked jointly with the upstairs two bedroom house.
I am a Film Producer and Screenwriter generally residing in LA supporting one of my two daughters, who is a budding actress. The other lives in London. I love anything to do with films and the beach, particularly the Surf Coast, and traveling. I have travelled extensively overseas with my two daughters and often book through Bookings.Com.
This property is at the gateway to the world famous Great Ocean Road and 12 Apostles. It is the home of Ripcurl and Bells Beach, where world surfing titles are held. The property which overlooks a calm swimming, sailing and boating beach provides a perfect place to relax and watch the yachts in summer or simply enjoy the sea views from the comfort of the lounge. You can walk along the beach to a cafe or bar and enjoy lunch at the bowls club up the street. Walk through the park to the main shopping area or follow the beach via the huge playground to the calm waters of the Front Beach or around the point further to watch the surfing at the Back Beach. There you can climb the cliffs for spectacular views or go bushwalking and explore further beaches.
