It was perfect, fantastic light lounge and kitchen, great mattresses and quiet at night for sleeping. Wonderful location just across the road from the beach and a short dive to the main shops. We also loved the off road parking and relaxing in the bath and it's great having two bathrooms. Everything you could need, thanks so much.

Torquay beachside

A cosy property in a superb position. Upstairs heats up very readily <28deg days -not sure how the air-con would cope in hotter weather. Couches were very uncomfortable for us. Lovely garden setting. Great walking paths nearby with little need for the car once there.

Great little house provided with everything plus lots of little extra’s shampoo, dish washing liquid salt pepper. Would like to see dead lock on front door as we had child with special needs.

Sandra is a good host and her property is clean and spacious enough for the 5 of us. Close walking distance to the water but I was disappointed with the lack of water views. I would certainly recommend to other families.

Wonderful Cosy Cottage

Wonderful Cosy Cottage

We had a weekend stay here for two of us to participate in the Great Ocean & Otway Classic Ride. Sandra was great with information prior to our arrival, and was happy for us to check-out a little later than usual. The house was spotlessly clean upon arrival. The property is quite private, but close to The Esplanade and beach. The living space is not huge, but was fine for 3 adults and 1 child. A well-appointed kitchen made meal preparation easy. The only minor hassle for residents in the upstairs bedroom is that the toilets and bathrooms are all downstairs. We very much enjoyed our short stay, and plan to return during slightly warmer weather to make the most of the proximity to the beach!

This place is in a fabulous location- close to the beach, a walk into town centre but far away to avoid the busyness of peak holiday season. The cottage had everything we needed and was a little oasis. Thanks.

This was the perfect beach stay property for my family over the Easter break this year. We were 3 couples and a baby. We all fit, comfortably and the property had everything you could need for a few days away. The big back yard was a bonus and so loved how close it was to everything in the town.
