We enjoyed a lovely little break on the Bellarine Peninsula. So very clean and tidy. Plenty of room for the family. Thanks to the hosts for the welcoming bottle of local wine. A great home base for us to explore the area from. Quiet area at the back of St.Leonards.

Beautiful accommodation

Everything was as described in the listing. Great house, amenities, plenty of beds. We were staying down to share Christmas with family and have a house in the area and have shared the details with them so that their friends can also book the property in future. Highly recommend.

Great location to explore the Bellarine

This property was great for our family and 4 legged family member also. We used it as our base while visiting the Bellarine. Very clean, comfortable and lots of space. Photos are very accurate. Only a 10-15 minute walk down to the water. Would stay again.
