A gorgeous space, with lovely hosts - a perfect stopping point before heading out on the GOR

The hosts were very warm and welcoming. A small selection of goodies were left for breakfast including homemade granola. The beds were very comfy, the lounge was perfect and the shower was great.

The kitchenette was very basic (but this was as described so no suprise) but there is the offer of using the kitchen downstairs for a fee. The lack of door to the upstairs meant you slightly lacked privacy but didnt affect our stay.

Superb and very comfort

the place is spacious and loads of entertainment provided in the place which are suitable for families and a group of people. The host even offer the homemade granola in the pantry. Location wise, it's less than 10mins drive to the Geelong CBD and few minutes away from the Belmont town center.

Comfortable beds. Welcoming hosts. Home stay, not part of a multi room accommodation set up.

Comfortable beds. Homemade granola provided by welcoming hosts.

I wasn't expecting that we would be under the same roof as home owners until I read their email. I guess i didn't pay too much attention when booking. I would have preferred accommodation with our own access rather than rooms via someone's residential front door

Lovely home, lovely people, and excellent access to Geelong or Waurn Ponds.

Terri makes her own granola, other options also available. Private lounge makes an excellent work and rest zone. The bedroom is comfortable

The traffic can be noisy, but abates later in the evening

A Great Place to Stay in Geelong.

Airconditioning and ceiling fans for comfort. Milk, butter and biscuits in the fridge. Coffee and tea provided plus a microwave and toaster. Very clean. Plenty of pillows and extra blankets. Although on a busy road it was quiet. Ian and Terri were very welcoming and friendly hosts.

Never again

The beds were so comfortable, living room was large and airy.

Not very private...advertised as having a private entrance, no their front door. Very uncomfortable knowing and hearing them downstairs and when going out, turning around a there she was in my face. Didn't see alfresco or BBQ area, pretty dodgy kitchen area, plastic bowl for washing up, little table and 2 chairs on verandah with ash try supplied, that was good apart from the location. Next to split system unit and dirty old shoes, not to mention the car on the right full of cobwebs and stuff. Front yard was not maintained. I could go on, but I won't

Great location and value.

Great location for exploring the Great Ocean Road. Appreciated the quiet location away from the tourist hustle on the coast. Hosts were friendly and considerate and we enjoyed the privacy. Great value all round.

It was somewhere to sleep.

Location was convenient for me

I wasn't aware that it was a private home and would have preferred a motel or serviced apartment.

Felt totally sick at the thought of staying somewhere with no door that could be locked

Nothing

There is no door between the rented rooms and the owners’ rooms. So no privacy and no security at all. I was shocked and distressed. I have asked for my money back with no success. I did not stay.

Beautiful hosts

We loved the little touches… the homemade granola, the thoughtful plant-based milks, all the puzzles and games to enjoy. The space is a great size.

The shower pressure was the only tiny issue.

when you just want to get some sleep for the night then this is perfect.

The view from the top story. Loved the snacks provided! It’s got a great warm home feeling :)

The owners where to involve. Needs to be a door or even something little like a fence. At one point we where trying to stop the dog from doing laps up stairs where I was meant to be staying.
