Ship House was comfortable, roomy, perfectly located and well stocked with all the utensils and features one could want in a short stay. Maggie was kind a communicated well, bath towels and linen were also supplied, and the house itself featured ample parking and a great backyard for summer activities. I'd gladly come and stay again.

I took my teenage daughters away for five nights and we all absolutely loved Ship House. Beautiful surroundings, quiet area, gorgeous decor, and very comfortable. Maggie was very helpful and left detailed instructions which were easy to follow.

Great place with plenty of space. A little tough to get to the shops due to the uphill/downhill but good location overall. Would definitely recommend for large families.

The house was spacious and the gardens are lovely. The 2 double beds were comfortable , and it was good to have 2 bathrooms. We were disappointed in the lack of items in the house. Most places we stay have basics like soaps, hand towels, and basic kitchen essentials like salt/pepper/plastic wrap/ oil. The house is really hot upstairs and while there are air cons in the 3 bedrooms, it seemed wasteful to have to use them when the temperature was only mid twenties. There were no windows to open in the 1st bedroom , and leaving the door open allowed a lovely breeze but there was no wire screen (or security screen )and it let in insects and cockroaches.

The location is very near to the beach and market. The house is very beautiful with lots of space for the kids to play around. It has all the comforts and the rooms are very spacious. It has the most beautiful backyard! Perfect for families with infants/kids.

We loved our week stay. The location was great. Quiet and handy to the beach and Mornington Main Street. The house felt like a lovely home away from home. I would definitely stay again. Thanks Maggie

The Ship House is a delightful property close by all the amenities that Mornington has to offer. Maggie is a very attentive host - even welcoming us to hand over the keys. We had plenty of space indoors and the back garden with the pear tree and birds was very relaxing. The weather was spectacularly warm so the aircon was a godsend!!

The backyard is GINORMOUS and playground set perfect for our toddlers (or kids aged 2-7). There are 2 spacious indoor living areas, an outdoor dining area with BBQ and well equipped kitchen/ laundry. Owner was very communicative and hospitable before and during our stay, even allowing a very late checkout on our last day. Plenty of kids books and good DVD collection. Sitting by the fireplace was lovely. Location is great with beaches and main township super close. Would only recommend providing a portacot and high chair and some small bowls (all crockery is large adult sized porcelain)
