    Starting my Australian trip at 328 Bank St was serendipity,.A thoughtfully renovated cottage in delightful area, it has a magical garden.Nearby cafes,pubs, and trams to the CBD add to your time. The proximity to the historic SouthMelbourne Market is an added bonus. A week stay was not long enough!

    Great location, walking distance to Alexandra Gardens to walk “Olivia’s Walk for Wellness” with our two dogs. Close to the shops and the fabulous markets. Private and dog friendly. Parking was an issue as timed parking 7 days a week, however when we called Chris he provided us with the neighbours visiting permit. A few minor issues for us : no first aid kit as advertised in the welcome pack and we forgot to bring bandaids, the washing machine left black marks on our white clothes, poor television reception and it kept turning off, most of the drawers and cupboards were filled with the owners stuff. School over the road was noisy during school hours.However, we enjoyed our stay in Melbourne.

    A week in a perfect traditional property, in an ideal location. Rooms are well appointed. Only two issues which are easily resolved. Parking is on the street, but time controlled by the Council, but we found a few totally unrestricted outside the local church, round the corner. The other issue, as noted by another previous renter, was locking the kitchen door to the rear patio. This was tricky, and would be best fixed.We'd highly recommend this property.

    We, loved the house. It was comfortably laid out, had every kitchen device you could want and a lovely private area out back to dine or relax. Chris was a fantastic host, answered all our questions promptly and was very informative about the area. The house is within walking distance of the CBD, the Botanic Gardens, the market and the Ian Potter centre which has outstanding aboriginal art. All in all a perfect place for us. Thank you Chris

    Spent seven nights here. Fabulous location for enjoying South Melbourne, including the market, restaurants, cafes and pubs. Easy access to transport to get around Melbourne. The house is lovely. Everything we needed and we loved the outdoor area! Will be keen to stay again next time we visit Melbourne.

    Travelling from Perth, we rented this house as our home base while in Melbourne. The location is absolutely perfect for going to the South Melbourne market and the neighbourhood is quaint and quiet. On check in we had a slight delay as a result of the previous guest leaving it in a state. The owner was there to greet us and explain the situation. We dropped off our bags and had a delicious lunch at Clay Pots. He messaged to let us know it was fine to return to the house. Going to my office in the city was a quick 96 tram ride to Southern Cross station. We had dinners and drinks (Fable bar, Dessous, City Wine Bar) and dessert (Brunetti) out in the CBD and it was easy to return home . The house is well appointed, clean and most importantly the temperature neither hot or cold. Considering it is a heritage era house, there were no drafts! I highly recommend this property for a couple who enjoy having everything at your door and we will be back on our next trip to Melbourne
