Fabulous location with plenty of sites to visit. House set up is ideal and has everything you could need for comfort and practicality. The only small negative is the mattress on beds is super hard, but, I can appreciate that some people prefer this. We had a wonderful time enjoying all this house has to offer.

I stayed a week at this spacious property. The property is a little tired however this is more than made up for by the host's quick, professional, friendly communications, and immediate assistance. I would recommend this property and the host. The property is also very well situated for local amenities and a short walk from: Eltham town and several parks, including Westerfold's Park where you can see wild Kangaroo's, Kookaburra's, and other Australian Wildlife.

The room setup had changed from what looked like 3 queen beds, but we made it work. Shops down the hill 300m were great for coffee and groceries.

Moses is an excellent communicator. The property is large and spacious. It’s getting a little tired and will need some renovations soon but, overall a great place to stay.
