Southdown - Sorrento

We enjoyed a wonderful week at Southdown, Sorrento. The house was simple, clean, comfortable and homely, while the location is perfect. We greatly appreciated all of the provisions provided and the many other touches that made our stay so enjoyable. The host has certainly made it feel like a home away from home. An ideal place to 'switch off' and relax. We look forward to returning to Southdown again.

Southdown has for 20 years been our family’s favourite. A very homey home. Sitting in the sun filled lounge looking out at the tee trees you feel a million miles from home (and neighbours) Very comfortable beds, extra blankets and pillows in all 3 bedrooms, fabulously stocked cupboards, Jo has thought of absolutely everything.A leisurely walk to Sorrento township along Melbourne Road and access to the back beach track at the end of the street through bush land. We will definitely continue staying at Southdown

The place is well appointed, has all the facilities that we needed for our stay. Was such a delight to find that there were all the things you would need to prepare meals as far as condiments etc. Cannot praise Jo enough for what was made available to us. Looking forward to the next time we visit from the States. Dan, Claire and Brendan

We had a great stay - awesome location, good sized property and little touches that made all the difference. Would definitely recommend and we wouldn’t hesitate staying there again.

My husband and two children spent a week at Southdown over the summer. It is a lovely little beach house set amongst the tea-trees. With a basketball hoop for the kids and plenty of space to roam and relax we all had a great time away. Diamond Beach is close by with rock pools and cliffs for the kids to explore. A great little beach house that is well equipped and we would highly recommend!

We had ten days in our little house on the hill and Loved it , the house had everything you need and not having wifi was actually really good for the kids! We have already re booked for next year

We just loved Southdown for our family Easter getaway. The care Jo has put into the property is second to none. The heater was on upon our rather chilly arrival and we immediately felt at home. The champagne chilling in the well stocked fridge with every condiment you could ask for was also a welcome touch. The property itself is very clean and cosy with comfy beds. It’s well stocked with many toys, board games, dvds, books and magazines. Tucking up on the front porch couch with a magazine and a coffee from the pod machine was lovely. The trees around the property also inspired many games for our little kids while my teen and partner played basketball. Our walks to nearby Diamond Bay and Sorrento back beach were stunning. We got to have quality downtime at Southdown and I will definitely be back. Thank you Jo for creating such a lovely getaway and for your exceptional care at each stage of the process.

The property was neat and clean, well equipped; it had most things you need for a comfortable stay. The property is in a terrific location only a 2-3 minute drive to Sorrento main town and it catered very well for the entire family, we loved it.

My teenage girls and I very much enjoyed our relaxing new year break at Southdown. The chilled bottle of bubbly ? and the starter kit of pantry items such as jams and condiments was much appreciated. We look forward to a return visit soon. Michael M

This was our second time at this lovely house. The adults and the 3 children (aged 11, 8 and 2) all loved it. A peaceful setting outside and every detail thought of inside. Owner responded to and fixed small problem immediately. Really appreciated the champagne on arrival, the generous supplies of household needs and the wonderful selection of toys, games, magazines and dvds. HIghly recommend this place. We'll certainly be back.
