Our family of four have travelled widely and our 6 night stay at this grand historic home with Lyne ranks among our favourite and most memorable.
Lyne is the most generous, thoughtful and attentive host you could ever meet. Each morning we were served a feast of fresh fruit, local pastries, yogurt, bacon and eggs with hot and cold beverages. As my eldest suffers from a nut allergy, we were very grateful that Lyne was extremely careful with food preparation.
Lyne’s home is thoughtfully decorated, the beds are super comfy you’ll never want to get out and it is so central to the waterfront and shops. There is a Woolworths, IGA and Aldi all in walking distance.
Portland is a charming coastal town, surrounded by incredible natural beauty. It is the gateway for the 250km Great South West Walk. Don’t miss Cape Breakwater for the petrified forest, blowholes and trek to the seal colony along Victoria’s highest cliffs. You will meet many kangaroos along this walk. Point Danger hosts Australia’s only mainland colony of gannets and the Port Nelson lighthouse is a must visit.
Thank you Lyne for your outstanding hospitality. We are grateful for and will always remember your warm country welcome and kindness.
