    The room was neat and clean but we could hear everything going on next door and in the room below us!!

    We loved sitting on the balcony of our room and watching the wallabies whilst enjoying the cool ocean breeze. The continental breakfast was sufficient, but it would've been nice to have some hot options ( bacon, eggs, pancakes )

    What a beautiful Guest House, so comfortable and clean. The view from our room was amazing and we enjoyed sitting on our balcony having a few wines. The host Bernie was amazing, so friendly and helpful. We were also amazed at the complimentary breakfast that we enjoyed from a very large common area with a beautiful view. The best part was being so close to the Penguins and some stunning views of Bass Strait. We will be back and next time will stay a few nights.

    Fittings weren’t very cohesive. Door to en-suite bathroom stuck against the floor. Lighting was very harsh and not dimmable.

    Location was brilliant; within walking distance of the Penguin Parade. Plenty of space within the property

    Nothing - very minor observation would have been nice to have decafe coffee and tea available in main lounge area

    Location very peaceful. Very nice accommodation and comfortable with a decent breakfast. Less than 2mins from the penguin parade but essential to book in advance as full.

    Bernie was a lovely host. She shared a lot of helpful information about the area, such as dinner options and where to visit the following day. We had a great time on the island thanks to Bernie. The room was spacious and clean, and equipped with a powerful air conditioner and a huge bathtub. We had a comfortable night even though it was a cold day as November. The hotel was just 2 mins away from the Penguin Parade but also close enough to the town of Cowe.
