The Bowen Cottage was a fantastic choice for our 3 night stay in Melbourne. Located outside the city it was very accessible via the airport by car (under 30 minutes without traffic) and trolleys to the city were nearby for an easy trip.
The area was quiet and if we had come during a warmer season we would have made more use of the charming front porch and back patio. Living room area and kitchen were just the right size for our stay.
If I find myself back in Melbourne I would definitely look to rent here again.
