“Pleasant stay in a quiet neighborhood close to the beach with welcoming hosts and a great breakfast.”
Hosts were very pleasant and accomodating to my dietary request (A2 milk). The breakfast was outstanding. Unlike most Australian B&B's continental fare, in addition to the standard fare there were pancakes, eggs, bacon, orange juice, and good coffee . There was a direct walking path to the beach that was well marked and not too far.

“We had a lovely stay, and Richard and Evie are excellent hosts. Thank you again!”
Richard and Evie are excellent hosts, with the personal touch of Richard remembering each guest's name and greeting them by name each day. The room was more than adequate and very comfortable, and parking was very adequate even for our large old car. Breakfast was delicious, both the cooked and continental options. All food was so fresh and tasty, with a great selection of fruit and smallgoods as well.

“A perfect break with hosts looking after our comfort throughout the stay.”
A lovely quiet location just a few steps away from the beach. A very generous five-star buffet breakfast. Loved the 11 am check-out and the property's well-maintained historical garden.

“A charming BnB close to the beach, and all the attractions of Phillip Island and Cowes.”
The breakfast was absolutely lovely! The facilities were exactly as described, and it was close to the beach and a short drive up to Coles, and the main shopping precinct strip of Cowes. The grounds are immaculate with parking facilities right outside your door. The golden tree out the front is divine and such a treasure to provide much needed shade from the hot summer sun. Richard and Evie were excellent hosts, informing us of activities to do on the island and sights to visit during our stay. They went to a lot of trouble to ensure our stay was comfortable, and we had all the amenities we needed. The room was spacious and comfy with TV and wifi, the bed was super relaxing and the shower had good water pressure, with a spacious bathroom. The bonus room with storage facilities, fridge and tea/coffee making facilities really complimented our stay.
