We had an awesome stay at Joan's place. Seeing as we stayed in winter, the best spot (and our favourite spot) was right infront of the fireplace! It was very cosy and we spent most of our time there. Its only a 5 min drive to Airey's Inlet and 25 min drive to Lorne. It's in a very peaceful area and really good if you're in the mood to wind down. Didn't get to go for a walk to access the beach so can't say how close it is but if you have a car, you can drive to it very easily. All that you need is provided in the kitchen and as well as a lot of basics in the pantry too. We did get a little cold at night in the bedrooms, so maybe some portable heaters or electric blankets could help. All in all, we had a pretty great stay at Joan's place, and were happy to make a new friend with Kookie the Kookaburra that said hello to us from the tree!
