This holiday home also has a patio that doubles up as an outdoor dining area. For added privacy, the accommodation has a private entrance and soundproofing.

The house was excellent. The hosts added lots of extra personal touches such as sun tan creams and other toiletries that we normally never have in a property. The property was spotless and very comfortable. Lovely views from the house and you can easily walk into Penguin. Would have stayed longer but for it being booked out already. We would definitely recommend.

    This holiday cottage was fantastic. It felt like walking into a home and we knew we would enjoy our stay. We did!!! Everything was spotlessly clean and comfortable with everything you could think of needing, and more. Right opposite the beach and an easy 10 minutes walk to the shops and restaurants

    Big upstairs room. Plenty of storage chests. Big comfy bed. Bedlamp on already. Hot shower. Stylish decor. Plenty of heaters. Side view of the beach. The goods train line charmingly runs behind. Curtains & shades. CD/DVD player. TV had netflix etc. Reception lounge room had sofas, books, CDs, music playing. My plane was late so not as much time in Penguin as I would've liked. IGAs either side of hotel. Popular cafes in short walking distance. Also P.O. Friendly quiet village that pioneered Australia's banning of plastic bags.

    great accommodation - perfect location - the apartment appeared to be quite new - great floor plan - right across from a beach and in the middle of the main street of the very pretty village of Penguin. A few stairs to get to the room on the first floor so you need to be aware of this - we were very happy with this accommodation
