The Cottage was an absolute dream. I'd wanted a relaxing getaway and I couldn't have asked for more. I felt every concern leave me as I nestled into this plush and stylish retreat. It's a beautifully considered and light-filled environment with space to move and feel free.
There was a lot to love about this place. Soft carpet (renovation done right!) and the skylight made it nice to just lie and watch the clouds pass over, and the bedrooms were comfortable with pillows galore. Cooking in the kitchen was easy with the array of cookware and utensils provided, and I really appreciated the coffee machine.
The BnB sits adjacent to the main house but feels very private because the overall property is large. The expansive garden was a true feature – jaw-droppingly gorgeous. Nibbling on the scrummy brownies provided whilst taking in the view was a treat in itself.
This was a great base to check out Mornington too (a short 10 minute drive to the main strip) and heaven to return to after a trip to the Peninsula Hot Springs. Moreover, Peter and Julie are fantastic hosts; they're respectful of your privacy whilst being very responsive, friendly, and accommodating. They've no shortage of recommendations for places to visit too if you're at a loose end.
If you're looking to get away to relax and recharge, you'd be hard-pressed to find better than The Cottage. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay.
Thank you for the beautiful experience, Peter and Julie!
