We had another wonderful stay at Julie's property with the grandparents and our big german Shepherd. So much room for the whole family and had a warm homely feel. Nice quiet location and our daughter loved the swing on the back porch. Julie was so helpful with communication and gave us some lovely private beaches to check out, we will be back soon! Thankyou

Peterborough getaway
It was a nice older style country home with plenty of character and in a nice quiet location not too far from the beach. It is well equipped with everything you need, although couldn't work out how to get the TV working. (Wasn't really an issue for us) the house was very clean and tidy and the bed very comfortable I would visit again

Great family house
Our multi generational family and dog stayed a week in this well equipped and comfortable home. The house had everything we needed and only a short walk to the shops and beach. We loved the library, the games and the wood fire. A great location to stay and explore the great ocean road and beyond.
