It was a great delight to arrive at John and Rob's lovely home in central Victoria and be welcomed by John, an array of blooming flowers, and a well-designed and very comfortable accommodation on the ground floor of their house. My wife has a particularly discerning sensibility about accommodations and surroundings and was wholly pleased and downright charmed. On day two, in part because our early evening "at-home" sushi dining plans coincided with John's gardening, we were able to sit in the (larger) back garden and enjoy our food w/ John, learning about the history of the neighborhood, their extensive renovations of several houses, and other topics of interest. The neighborhood is quite mixed, and even has an old cemetery (Cedar Hill) about a block away. Also within walking distance is the Fernwood complex of a pub, a wine bar, and a bistro--all at an intersection now dominated by a church-turned-theater. Even though John and Rob live upstairs, we were never once inconvenienced by ambient sound and thoroughly enjoyed the recently refurbished kitchen, bathroom, and general interior design (all by John). In short, this is an exceptionally fine accommodation and a real find. Give yourself 3 nights at least! Thanks John and Rob!
