Just what we needed
Beautiful little place with gorgeous outside area under the trees. Had everything we needed to escape the summer heat and only a short drive to the beach to enjoy hours of sunset bliss. Outside shower absolutely fantastic to wash the beach away (especially for the dog!)Fantastic little spot and our doggo enjoyed it as well

Overnight stay
Overall impression good. Bed comfortable. Clean bathroom, plenty of towels and toiletries. Peaceful location. Downsides: TV too difficult to navigate (gave up in the end), 1 english breakfast teabag (1!), 2 Earl Grey and 2 Green tea, no instant coffee or decaf. No full sized oven. Would stay again.

Cute and Cozy Getaway
Our stay at the garden cottage was just what we needed, it was a beautiful little holiday! Great location within Barwon heads yet staying so close to the owners house was unexpected but privacy was fine. Amenities were up to date, clean and functional apart from the towel rail in the bathroom which unfortunately continually broke when we hung our towels on it. The TV had access to many streaming platforms to watch and enjoy! The amount of natural light that the property received all day long was incredible and really amazing to experience! Overall our stay was very relaxing and an amazing experience.

Our cottage stay
The cottage is located in a sensational area, a stone’s throw from Barwon River - perfect for walks, picnics, fishing and water sports. The neighbourhood was very quiet, which in peak season compared to the Main Street, was a welcome reprieve. general upkeep was neglected, as we encountered things like flat batteries in remotes and sticky residue on kitchen countertops. bed was comfortable and the back deck and front patio were lovely to use. Shower was also great - hot, strong pressure, clean and modern.
