Fresh salty air, unlimited outdoor places to explore & switch off from the world.

Plenty of free parking at the house for those on a self drive, and the yard is fully fenced and secure. Port campbell is quite isolated in terms of public transport but there is a V-Line service if you are up for a challenge.

The host was wonderfully helpful when our credit card payment didn’t go through. I had a little trouble finding the place after dark but was very comfortable once arrived. Travellers should be aware the town and food options shut down early, so if you want to enjoy the sunset at the 12 apostles - grab a bite first!

Booking Mishap

We were scheduled to book this property, however, were told 2 hrs prior to arriving that it had been doubled booked. This is disheartening as we would have ridden 5 hrs to get there. Luckily the communication with owner was superb and she was able to quickly organise an alternate accommodation for us, which rarely would happen. We were very satisfied with the alternate accommodation and accepted her apology. Thanks

Last minute decision getaway

Although we usually prefer luxury accommodation, our limited options led us to this place. Place was as listed no surprises. For us it's a budget accommodation, but still good accommodation. Kitchen amenities were great. Bathroom was great. Thanks again.
