Whispering Pines Summ

Where does one start. Now, what I’m going to write is not a complaint but observations. On entering the house, it had a stale smell, probably been locked up for a while; on the surface it looked clean but a little tired. The window in the lower bed room, I had to force open. I went upstairs to the bedroom loft and found the hand rail was sticky (my partner cleaned it). The kitchen benches clean, some coffee stains on a wall were almost cleaned off, the fridge clean inside and out except for the top of the fridge and the items on it are covered in grime. Do you want me to keep going? I could tell you about the window in the dunny not opening, the badly finished shower or how the three sliding doors that needs a lot of maintenance. Lastly if they were to clean the windows it may make the place sparkle.

Lovely property, wonderful garden and great location. We would say that the price was a bit high given the beds were more like sofa beds but the rest of the property was lovely and easy to use.

A nice house but there was no microwave or WiFi. The dishes were not clean and there was not adequate equipment to wash dishes such as a dish cloth. It was rather bothersome that I had to spend time washing dishes before I could use them. Not good value for money.

Good position. Would have been uncomfortable had the temperature been very hot.

Lovely restful stay. Garden vista a delight

Loved the fire and the open plan with big windows! Recommend for a weekend away

This light filled home is truly unique. Filled with treasures from around the world, it was cosy with a lovely wood stove, bedroom in the loft up some stairs, a second bedroom downstairs, and a glorious backyard filled with native plants and birds. Would definitely stay here again, just a 10 minute walk to the lovely village of Barwon Heads. The only thing it lacked which would have topped it off for us was a bath, but we loved it.

Just the cosy cute holiday home I remember when I was a child. Simple, easy and relaxing. What a cute home and really felt private and cosy, with such a great back yard to relax or play games with children.

We loved our stay in this charming home so close to the beach and shops. Enjoyed the backyard and the games and the fireplace. We do have small children so the stairs and wide timber slats weren’t ideal, which meant a few panicked moments chasing them up the stairs. Besides that, it was just what we needed for a weekend getaway.

Location was ideal for what we needed. Beds were futons so uncomfortable for adults.
