The Ship House - relax by the sea

Great house - everything that you need. Close to the beach and town - walking distance.

Stayed for a week over Christmas visiting family. House is in a great location - 10 mins walk to the beach, 20 mins to centre of town and lots of shops, restaurants and bars. The outside space is great, lovely garden and outdoor eating area too. Small barbeque which was useful. The house itself internally is quite dated and tired, although well equipped, kitchen especially. Our main difficulty was with WiFi, which is listed in the details. It’s was not there, and when I enquired there was only a 4g booster available. The signal was not strong enough for any work calls, could not download or stream anything. As a result smart TV also listed, kept freezing. I’d say moderately comfortable overall. Could really do with a refresh of bedding and furniture. Maggie was very responsive and prompt with communication.

Great house and location. Maggie was so helpful

Ship House was comfortable, roomy, perfectly located and well stocked with all the utensils and features one could want in a short stay. Maggie was kind a communicated well, bath towels and linen were also supplied, and the house itself featured ample parking and a great backyard for summer activities. I'd gladly come and stay again.

I took my teenage daughters away for five nights and we all absolutely loved Ship House. Beautiful surroundings, quiet area, gorgeous decor, and very comfortable. Maggie was very helpful and left detailed instructions which were easy to follow.

Beautiful big house and the host was a delight to deal with

Great place with plenty of space. A little tough to get to the shops due to the uphill/downhill but good location overall. Would definitely recommend for large families.

The house was spacious and the gardens are lovely. The 2 double beds were comfortable , and it was good to have 2 bathrooms. We were disappointed in the lack of items in the house. Most places we stay have basics like soaps, hand towels, and basic kitchen essentials like salt/pepper/plastic wrap/ oil. The house is really hot upstairs and while there are air cons in the 3 bedrooms, it seemed wasteful to have to use them when the temperature was only mid twenties. There were no windows to open in the 1st bedroom , and leaving the door open allowed a lovely breeze but there was no wire screen (or security screen )and it let in insects and cockroaches.

The location is very near to the beach and market. The house is very beautiful with lots of space for the kids to play around. It has all the comforts and the rooms are very spacious. It has the most beautiful backyard! Perfect for families with infants/kids.

Great place to stay with family or friends. Walking distance to shops and restaurants and convenient to everything Mornington and the peninsula has to offer.
