Beautiful house with stunning views of the coast situated up high on a hill. It’s a nice and spacious house which is very comfortable. The only thing I suggest is some new glass wear as there are an abundance of beer glasses but minimal wine and champagne glasses

Great views
Great spot with fantastic views. Bedroom setup is not as listed. Fold out beds in rooms with no blinds. Couple of the tvs did work. Down light out in ensuite off main bedroom. Aside from these points property was comfortable and relaxing.

Loved the location, the view, the architecture, very comfortable for a family holiday. It had everything we needed and it was clean inside.However, our major concern was the rubbish, the bins were full and one had maggots in it which was very smelly. And all bins had every type of rubbish in them despite being designated glass recycling etc. Also the tap over the basin in the upstairs bathroom needed fixing. Despite these problems, we had a great holiday

Great house, spectacular views. Perfectly close to town so not a problem to walk in and back. There is a big huge hill which could be a challenge for some. We had a lovely time and enjoyed the house. Different levels gave our grown up kids their own space which was nice. Would definitely return.

Great property with a beautiful outlook. As it is elevated the driveway is very tricky and difficult to manoeuvre- this is the only thing I found really difficult. Although the house can sleep 8 there are no blinds for the two sofa beds so it is really bright in those spaces. The other bedrooms are very good and the main is spacious and comfortable. The host was very helpful.

A great stay, location was spot on provided you have a vehicle (which we did). Only suggestion is to service dishwasher (not draining) and light globe & fan in ensuite need replacement or service. Easily addressed and overall, a great place to stay. Great Ocean Rd is even better than I remembered.

What an exceptional property and outstanding views. The hosts were great with their communication and ensured our stay was enjoyable. The views towards the bay were stunning and it was great to have a fire, Netflix & Amazon Prime when the weather wasn’t great! The property also had sensational outdoor areas to make the most of warm nights and great weather.
