Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Surf Coast Shire

We were a party of five adults and we all agreed Duncan’s place was exceptional in every way. This is a truly beautiful location for exploring on foot including Fairhaven beach and the nearby lighthouse. We slept like logs in comfy beds and spent happy times with tons of books and games. The kitchen is perfect for cooking up a storm and has everything you could need - even an air fryer. All in all, we can’t say enough about this airbnb. We will definitely be back.

We had such a lovely week at this home. Was perfect for our pooch and we loved being walking distance from the beach and the shops and tennis courts.

Excellent place to stay. Easy walk into town. The house looked even better in person. Glenys was easy to communicate with and very accomodating. There was even a beautiful welcome gift and Easter eggs for the kids. Would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Wind down in Wensleydale was exactly that. From the moment we arrived everything we needed was there making the moment after unpacking found ourselves unwinding. The kids and dog explored the vast backyard and enjoyed the zip line, trampoline and later the piano. Our days were spent around the well thought out fire pit, huddled with our books around the indoor fire place or cooking away on the charcoal bbq. Numerous game nights were had with all their games supplied and spotting the kangaroos right in the backyard was a thrill for all of us. We did not want to leave.

We had an amazing time celebrating Easter at your Airbnb. It was sensational! Lots of beautiful memories made with our young families. It was set up perfectly for two families with 4 kids in total under 4. We have already shared your property with a number of friends who have kids of a similar age!

Everything was great, thank you! We had a lovely stay.

Beautiful place, so much character and charm! Incredible fire place, spacious kitchen, comfy couch - a great place to lounge around in winter or use as a base for exploring when the weather is nice. And what a stunning view from out front, which you can see from two of the bedrooms and living area! Will definitely look to come back here soon.

This was our 4th stay in the property and it never fails to deliver. Great location where you can just park the car and walk to everything Torquay has to offer

exceeded our expectations. beautiful apartment with everything you require to live a home away from home .location fantastic walk to town and 2 minutes to Skilled Stadium . free car park as well !

We stayed at Rachel's apartment as an overnight stop over but the experience was extraordinary compared to our other Airbnb stay. The first sight of the property was the kitchen and lounge area, because it's a transformed property, the ceiling is extremely tall and vantage feel. The kitchen and bathroom are very tidy and clean with all essentials. Bedroom beddings were clean and we had a good night sleep. Property have plenty of parking spots which is directly in front of the property entrance. The property also have fan, aircon and heater which is a plus for all seasons to visit Geelong. Although it's about a 5mins drive to the main port but location wise is still very convenient.

A lovely apartment, easy access and parking, beautifully presented which made the stay relaxing and very comfortable. Access to the restaurants,waterfront and other amenities was easy thanks to the location. A great place to have on my list especially during AFL season.

Beautiful and perfect location to participate in Great Ocean Road Marathon! And the accomodation itself is very luxury and spacious!

Darren and Yolanda’s place was absolutely stunning and artsy. My family could not get over looking at the gorgeous view just opposite of the unit. I would highly recommend!

Fleur’s place is stunning - thoughtfully and beautifully curated with so many special little touches…it was such an idyllic, peaceful, and luxe retreat. The bed is super-comfy, the amenities are luxurious, this is one of the loveliest spaces I have stayed in. Fleur was responsive, warm, and such a generous host. She was even kind enough to extend our check-out to late afternoon! Highly recommended. Thanks so much for such a beautiful weekend Fleur. Hope to stay again soon!

We went to the footy, was nice and close to walk with our kids. Glenn was so hospitable. Can’t recommend any higher! The place was clean and exactly what we were after. 10/10

Beautiful and peaceful location. Not far from the beach at all and you can connect with nature. Jess was great at communications and will definitely be looking into booking again soon. We had a great time staying at Jess’s property. ☺️

This was our second time here and we loved it just as much as the first. It's just great for pets: the enclosed yard is spacious so you can just let the doggo go outside and wander without worrying. The broader grounds are lovely. You feel like you are out in the country but if you forgot something, the Torquay shops are just a 10 min drive away. The animals, trampoline, pool, and ping pong are all great for the whole family. Terry is just lovely to chat with and very helpful if you need anything. Finally, check out the Great Ocean Road nursery and café just two doors down — delicious food and coffee and a very pleasant spot.

We had a lovely start at Wisteria cottage. Everything was as expected and more. We were traveling with a child and toddler and were very comfortable during the stay. The children thoroughly enjoyed their time at the farm. The biggest highlight being the tractor tour of the farm and interacting with the animals are close quarters. The cottage was perfect in all aspects and had a homely feel about it. We would highly recommend it to anyone especially if you are traveling with children.

This place is an absolute gem for a staycation! Whether you're planning a romantic retreat with your partner or a fun-filled girls' trip, you won't be disappointed. The stunning scenic views from the window create a serene backdrop that makes relaxation effortless. The cozy studio-style setup has everything you could possibly need for a delightful stay. I highly recommend this spot for anyone looking to escape and recharge. It’s a solid 10/10! Plus Not To forget the host is incredibly kind and welcoming, which just adds to the overall wonderful experience. 🥰

We had an amazing stay at Fran's place! Although we arrived late at night and struggled a bit to locate the key box in the dark, Fran was incredibly responsive and helpful. She happily and patiently guided us over the phone, making sure we got inside without any issues. The house itself is absolutely stunning—spacious and offering breathtaking views. We stayed for 4 nights but honestly wished we could have stayed longer. One of the highlights was our 10-month-old, who thoroughly enjoyed rolling around on the grass all day—it was pure joy watching him! Another magical touch was the daily morning visits from kangaroos—an experience we'll never forget. This is hands down one of the best Airbnb stays we've ever had. Fran's attentiveness and the charm of the place truly made it special. We’ll definitely be coming back!

The most beautiful place to stay! Surrounded by nature and so quiet and peaceful. The place itself was so comfortable and a really lovely design. Would definitely recommend and would love to come back!
