John and Alison are the most wonderful and welcoming hosts that we have met so far. Their beautiful, new house is perfectly clean and spacious with a great, private guest space upstairs. The bedroom is a really good size with amble storage space and super comfy bed. The ensuite bathroom with separate toilet was large and extremely clean with an excellent shower. The private guest lounge was a lovely place to relax and watch some TV or a DVD after a big day exploring. There's a small fridge (milk and ground coffee inside) tea and coffee making facilities and some very yummy cookies. Bowls, plates and cutlery were provided in the private lounge and we found the local Thai take away across the road to be a great choice for dinner with really fresh dishes.
A continental breakfast was provided for us in the morning with a lovely selection of cereals, muesli, wonderfully warmed fruit and fresh yoghurt, breads, tea and coffee.
The location was perfect for us. We enjoyed walking into central Mornington along the beautiful coastline and in the other direction, Mount Martha with a nice selection of cafe's and coffee shops.
John and Alison provided us with great local knowledge in regards to cafe's and restaurants, wineries and places to visit and were always available if we needed anything. Their adorable dog Bobby was a little bundle of joy, always very respectful of our space upstairs ,unless he was invited, and very well behaved.
I would highly recommend John and Alison's stay if you're coming to the peninsula. All in all it's a great house in a great location with really great people. We will definitely be back, five stars!! :) Suzie and Matt
