A "Haven in Hastings" - I spent 5 nights at Sue's place and from the moment you step foot in Pelican House you sense that Sue has lovingly prepared the place for your arrival and to welcome you into her home. Beautifully hand written, artistic notes greet you with a welcome and in the fridge she had prepared a platter of cheese, chocolate, crackers and a bottle of wine setting the scene for a wonderful, peaceful and relaxing stay. The house sleeps six and is perfect for lone travellers, couples and families alike. Equipped with many amenities inside (coffee machine, blender, toaster etc) and out (a table tennis table, BBQ and plenty of spaces to sit and relax outside both at the back and front of the house). If the weather isn't clement you can while away the hours indoors watching telly and playing games or look out across the water and parklands directly in front of the house later in the evening sipping a cheeky wine. The house is walking distance to Hastings village and Pelican viewing. Both places have shops and cafes that can supply all you need for your holiday. It's on the quieter side of the Peninsula, so you don't have the chaos and busyness of the bay beaches however you're only about a 20-30 minute drive away. On the Westernport side you have Balnarring Beach, Somers or Merricks Beach which are just as close. One of the great things about Sue's place is that it is super pet friendly and ideal for animal lovers with all your pet needs supplied too. Whilst I didn't get to use it, there's also beautiful Japanese bath which I aim to try out the next time I visit as it's definitely a place you'll come back to :) Thanks for a fabulous stay Sue !
