Golfview Lorne - For all seasons
About this house rental
DESCRIPTION: Offering stunning ocean and golf course views, as well as privacy and modern facilities, Golfview provides the perfect Lorne getaway. With 5 bedrooms, 2 living areas, modern kitchen and 2.5 bathrooms, the house is configured to comfortably sleep up to 12 guests, however the thoughtful layout also makes the house suitable for smaller groups looking for a spacious yet cosy coastal escape. On the main floor is the open-plan living area, incorporating a designer kitchen with island bench, Bosch dishwasher, dual-door fridge, wide electric oven and a full suite of kitchen appliances and cooking equipment. The kitchen opens onto the spacious, light-filled lounge with a comfortable corner couch and a 65 inch TV with unlimited wifi and Netflix and Stan subscriptions. The lounge also includes split system air-conditioning and a fully stocked Coonara wood fire, as well as an adjoining dining section with seating for 8 and ocean views. The main living area opens onto the enormous main deck with outdoor table, sun lounges, cushions, modern barbecue and stunning ocean and golf course views. The deck is also fully enclosed, making it safe for young children. Also on the main floor is a separate powder room/toilet next to the main living area, as well the master bedroom with queen sized bed, pillow-top mattress and en-suite with double shower, toilet and vanity. Downstairs you'll find another main bathroom (with European laundry and double showers), as well as three more bedrooms (including one which sleeps up to four people). You'll also find a large rumpus area with digital TV (plus Chromecast), as well as leather couches, a table-tennis table and split system air-conditioning/heating. On the top level is our personal favourite, the tower room. This room is flooded with natural light and is the perfect place to escape the kids and read a book. It opens to its own, private deck and has a queen sized bed. The house also includes heating in every bedroom, a selection of DVDs, CDs, books and games, plus facilities for small children (including highchair, 2 portable cots, plastic kitchenware, toys and kids’ DVDs/books). There's also a double parking bay for 2 cars next to the house with easy access (unlike many places in Lorne with impossibly steep driveways!!), plus parking spaces out the front for 2 additional cars. BEDDING SET-UP Main floor - Bedroom 1 (master with en-suite): Queen (2 guests) Downstairs Bedroom 2: Queen plus single and trundle (4 guests) Bedroom 3: Queen (2 guests) Bedroom 4: Queen (2 guests) Upstairs tower room - Queen (2 guests) Linen: Linen is provided, including clean bath towels, bathmats and hand washers. ACTIVITIES Just across the road from the house lies the Lorne Country club, a lush and superbly manicured 9 hole public course with stunning coastal views (9 holes $25 / 18 holes $35) as well as a selection of tennis courts ($20/hour). The beach is a mere two minute drive down the hill or a 10-15 minute walk (probably 20 to get back up). There are loads of interesting things to see and do in and around Lorne, including beautiful and varied short and long walks, waterfalls, galleries, cafes, restaurants, shopping and a movie cinema, as well as the classic Lorne pub overlooking the beach. Lorne is also famous for whale watching season (July-September) and is the perfect base for exploring the Great Ocean Road, with many amazing spots to discover within an hour’s drive. FOR THE KIDS: Down on the large, open grassy foreshore next to the main beach you’ll find an impressive adventure playground, skate park and BBQ facilities. You’ll also find an open-air, beachfront sporting complex with swimming pool, spa, gym and café/restaurant, along with an assortment of activities and facilities for children, including mini-golf and water-games.

Loved waking up in the morning to the kangaroos on the golf course. Lots of rooms and beds for large groups. Enjoyed our stay.

Big house with good views. Bathrooms very clean. Bedrooms comfy. Table tennis and foozball fun. Unfortunately, quite dirty under furniture. Could use a bit of maintenance, eg sink in laundry not able to be used, which was a nuisance as couldn’t soak/rinse clothes/ bathers etc in it. And outside furniture old and cushions very stained and dirty looking. We had a great holiday but a bit overpriced given the overall condition of the place. Host was good, always replied promptly and very helpful.

This house is in a lovely spot, with beautiful views and a short drive to shops and restaurants. The house has good bones but is in serious need of attention. Walls are scuffed and dirty, windows look like they've never been cleaned and there is a strong smell of mildew throughout but particularly on the lower level. Linens were supplied but sheets were pilled and uncomfortable and the towels were old and thin. The general level of cleanliness throughout was not great, particularly in the midst of a pandemic. There was some broken furniture and deck pailings which were bordering on unsafe. We expected more for the money we paid. On a positive, the size of the house is great for a big group and the golf course views make for excellent kangaroo viewing. This house could be excellent with a bit of love and attention

Nice and private location, with a bit of an ocean view. Great bird life and a comfortable house.
House was not particularly clean, it had rubbish out the front of the house, significantly stained carpet, marks on the plaster, damage to kitchen benches and loose timber decking etc. The bedsheets were clean, we found the firewood downstairs and we had a good stay, but I would have expected it to be cleaner and in better condition.
There is lots of kitchen equipment but we couldn't find the remote for the split system downstairs or login to the wifi. Was no dishwasher powder or tablets and about 2 tbs of dishwashing liquid so we had to go and buy our own. Still had a lovely weekend in Lorne, but if you're after something pristine, this isn't it.

The pictures online were impressive. However on arrival smelt locked up (musty). Was not cleaned with quite grimy wall and fittings. Bathrooms and towels were spotless. Some of guests didn't sleep in beds due to sheets being dirty. Kitchen was grimy and oven burnt our food due to element bent.
Rental needs some TLC and some maintenance needed.
The Host was a pleasure to deal with and speedy in communication which was nice.
Area was lovely otherwise.

Lovely location and very spacious for 5 single ladies in Lorne for a bushwalking weekend. The house is a little tired - kitchen benches a bit shabby, downstairs area stuffy when we arrived, and one bedroom did not have window that could be opened. Main problem was we did not have a key to unlock the door onto the deck from the kitchen, so could not make use of this area, However we still had a pleasant stay.

Just a few cleanliness issues that are an easy fix and would have made our stay a little more comfortable. The outside balcony was not usable due to it being very dirty. Just an oversight i'm sure. The cushions on the couch inside were so dirty. These again are such an easy fix. Thank you for a beautiful home .

Family holiday in Lorne
As a family of 8 with 3 children we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The house was big enough for us all even when the weather was wet. It is very well situated for good walks, shopping and beautiful drives. The house was well equipped and we enjoyed the open fire in the evening. The TV screens were amazing. We thoroughly recommend it.

A pleasant experience
I was mostly satisfied with the house. When we arrived, the house did smell a little so I lit a fragrant candle which did help. The decks were covered in leaves so I swept them until it was tidy. We loved the deck and used it a lot because the weather was warm and the views were lovely. The deck chairs were stained which was off putting but we improvised with towels to sit on. Once we were settled in, we had a lovely time. I think greater attention to detail upon arrival would improve my overall impression. We saw lots of native wildlife which was wonderful. I would recommend this house and it was a pleasant experience.

Needs a lot of work done to bring this property up to standard
We did not get off to a good start with this property. When we arrived and tried to obtain the keys, they were not there. A few phone calls, which incidentally were to customer support in the USA, got us nothing other than an apology. They, like ourselves, could not get a hold of the owners. We were seconds away from booking a hotel for the night when the owner called, apologised and told us where to find the keys. We were also given a small refund for the inconvenience. Apart from the bad start, we were not overly impressed with the condition of this house given the amount we were paying. We took a number of photos of faults both inside and out and sent these to Home Away but nothing really came off this. The outdoor area needed maintenance and the removal of rubbish such as an old toilet and sink. Indoor had some areas that needed patched up. The cleaners needed to do a better job particularly as the children we had fiound 2 lighters - one down the sofa and one lying outside on the deck. It was great having toys and plates for young children and the numbers of beds and space was great but overall we felt we had been overcharged for what we got and would not recommend this house.
