Comfortable, clean and spacious
Felt like walking into a home, very spacious, extremely clean and with everything you could possibly want or need for a comfortable and enjoyable visit. Our host, Dora, responded almost immediately in a welcoming and helpful manner, from our original inquiry through to answering our questions during our stay. It was an excellent base from which to explore all that the Fleurieu Peninsula has to offer.

The living areas were well set up. Plenty of room and felt comfortable for 6 adults. Good outdoor space. Single beds were very noisy. Every time you rolled over, woke the person in the other bed. Everything was clean except carpet needed cleaning.

Relax in peace
We are 3 middle aged friends (women). We stayed at 18 Peace Ave - which by the way is aptly named -for 2 nights and 3 days (extended check in and out which was great). The time flew and we had a wonderful peaceful and relaxing time. The property is spacious, very clean and well stocked with food, bedding etc. It was a bit hot to sit outside most of the time but we could see the potential of how nice it would be to sit and look out into the simple but lovely garden. The house is walking distance to the shops and to the beach. We enjoyed our morning walks around the area. We all agreed that the next stay at this property would be a lot longer. Thank you to all involved in the upkeep and renting out of this beautiful place.

Pictures online don’t do this place the full justice it deserves. It’s even nicer when you get there! Massive backyard. Very well maintained. Nice pergola to sit & relax under. The bedrooms are nice. Great lounge room with a good size TV. Directions for internet use, oven & cooktop, etc are all simple to follow. 2 min walk to a brilliant coffee shop. Highly recommend this place at any time of year.

Perfect communication with the owner
My partner and I always spend some time away every year. This year has been outstanding, simply because the owner actually spoke to us. She enquiry us about how we would like the sleeping arrangements be. She informed us when the house was ready for an early check in. We felt the care she gives to her guest just from how much effort she puts into our comfort.
