      A place to pause
      Prom views is a beautiful place to pause. We cosied up by the fire in the evenings, walked to the local lookouts and beaches, took drives to nearby towns, beaches and the prom. A great spot to explore south Gippsland if you want somewhere a little more remote. Property manager was great, responsive to concerns and accomodating of our fur baby too.

      3 Day Getaway
      We had a wonderful 3 days at Shearwater. The house was perfect for us and did not disappoint from what we could see online. We really couldn't fault it in terms of cleanliness and functionality. The kitchen was very well stocked with essentials as well as every utensil and food prep item we needed. Had a lovely couple of nights on the balcony enjoying the views and the stars after dinner and the back yard served us well for a few games of Kubb. A big Thanks to Fleur who communicated brilliantly and even set up a spare bed in case we had a snorer in the group! Very thoughtful. Looking forward to our next stay!
