Summer Getaway
The house is basic as described but suited our family to a tee. House was not as clean as we would normally find but we had that fixed with a little work and enjoyed a great stay. The location is one of this houses biggest assets, just far enough from the busy town centre but close enough to walk.

KOOKABURRA STAY in LORNE

House needs a little attention
We enjoyed the space and the location worked for us. But the house was not clean, with fish scales and fishing line in the kitchen and dining room, for example. Some of the windows don't close. Some of the saucepans don't work on the induction stove top. And we didn't realise we would not have access to the room downstairs.

On top of Lorne
The property is walking distance up the hill from the Main Street in Lorne which made it handy to get to the event we were staying for. We had plenty of space to sleep everyone and the kitchen was fully equipped for cooking for a large group. We had visits on the balcony from a few Cockatoos each night around sunset too.

Plenty of space for a large group or family
The owner Li is very friendly and responsive. We bought lots of food to BBQ but BBQ did not work. Li suggested we take the gas bottle to be checked and she would remimburse us but hey we were on holiday and had paid for the BBQ to work. Also, the balcony railings have a safety issue. If kids were playing and pushed on some of the the railings, they would fall 3 metres on concrete or a parked car. It is imperative that these railings are repaired ASAP. We did not allow our grandchildren on the balcony during our stay. One this is fixed, we would stay again.

Lorne
Stay mostly good but was not cleaned before our visit as set in dirt throughout house & musty. Mould in bathroom sinks, broken towel rail and linen supplied was dirty on beds. The kitchen was stocked with 3 wine glasses and one was cracked. Some dining chairs rickety & not able to use. Perhaps need to supply hand soap, matches & basics like salt & pepper. Enough accommodation for family & great deck out front. Good location & comfortable. amenities.

Great location to enjoy Lorne
The house is ideal for a group of people to stay together, with sleeping available for 10 in beds (on two levels) and plenty of room for a porta-cot for little ones. Ideal open set-up for enjoying each other's company which opens up onto a a large deck across the front of the property. As I said, a great place to enjoy, and explore, Lorne and all it has to offer.
