The cottage is set in a brilliant location on the Peninsula, around 5 mins from Dromana, 30 mins from Sorrento and 20 mins from the Peninsula Hot Springs. It’s also 3 minutes away from Dromana drive in - an old school drive in cinema that we found by chance and absolutely LOVED.
The setting is gorgeous, surrounded by green fields and rolling hills with beautiful views of both from the kitchen and living room. There are goats and other animals in the paddocks and it’s far enough away from any light pollution to get an incredible view of the Milky Way at night (we went outside at around ten ish for a bit of night photography and could see mars even just from out the front of the cottage).
The inside of the cottage is fit out to a high standard, with every detail thought of down to a stack of chopped firewood for the cosy fire and a mindfulness colouring book along with a pencil case full of sharpened crayons.
We both agreed that the bed is honestly one of the comfiest beds we’ve ever stayed in, we had a really relaxing sleep both nights and woke up feeling fully rested. The kitchen and living room are spacious with a stylish sofa, tv and cosy fireplace. The kitchen is fully equipped and has a coffee machine with tins of tea, coffee and even a tin of lindt chocolates. Leaving us a loaf of bread and milk and butter in the fridge was a great touch.
Unfortunately due to rain we didn’t get to try out the private deck and outdoor bathtub but no doubt this would have just added to our experience. A coffee on the deck in the morning would’ve been perfect. Aimee messaged us on our last morning to let us know we would be OK if we wanted a late check out which was another great touch.
Overall we had a perfect and relaxing weekend away from Melbourne at the cottage and would definitely recommend booking for yourselves. :)
