Although Taroona Beach House house is not a new property, it has plenty of space, lots of character, and has been very well maintained. It is clearly been a much loved family home, and is situated in a quiet street, nestled among a mixture of permanent homes and holiday properties. We were met by Rod on our arrival, and shown into the house, which was spotless. We had no problems of any nature during our stay, but had no doubt that Hosts Rod and Jan would be over in a flash to sort any issues out
On arrival there was a bowl of fruit and a bottle of wine, and milk in the refrigerator. Although we were there at Easter, and the house is not far from the very busy Great Ocean Road, there was very little noise. In fact, we wondered if the locals had all gone away for the long weekend as well. Surrounded by mature trees, shrubs and many examples of local flora, this is a perfect place for a quiet getaway close to the beach. Oh, and there is plenty of bird life to keep the twitchers happy!
The kitchen is spacious and has all you could need to feed the hungry throng, and there is a DVD player, TV and FM receiver for entertainment. There is room for two cars under the house, and a couple more could fit in the ample driveway area.
We will return to this property when next we visit Aireys Inlet, and thank Rod and Jan for their outstanding hospitality.
