Wedding

Initially we were due to accompany our son and daughter in law to baby sit their daughter. Regrettably, i was hospitalised and couldn't make the trip, so it was just our son and daughter in law. I advised of this!

I'd rather be Harold Holt

Receiving texts demanding that the bins be put out (with threat of fee) prior to even leaving my home address, was disgraceful. Trawling through the Terms & Conditions, including a varied and complex fine system, required at least a Master's Degree. Upon arrival, the welcoming, wonderful, wafting bleach breeze stunningly enhanced the spectacular gravel landscape. This subtly merged with the suffocating suburban surroundings provided by the fabulous, phenomenal, fortified fence.

Great place - but bring your own linen

Great eclectic little cabin and tastefully done in a great location. No view but just so close to portar hotel and cafes. BUT it wasn’t clear nor were we ever expecting we had to order our own linen and towels. After it was too late we then were had to pay for expensive linen charge after already out laying so much for the place. Spoilt it u fortunately.

We loved our stay in this adorable property. We were in town for a wedding at the Portsea hotel and were thrilled when we arrived to find we were literally a few doors up from the Hotel. The accommodation is comfortable and nicely decorated
