About this property

Lorne Surfdogz at Lorne

To ensure the owners don't feel left out the apartment has a large living space with kitchenette, brand new bathroom with 'strong flow' shower and separate bedroom with a queen size pillow top bed with dual control electric blankets.
PLEASE NOTE. Surfdogz is located under the main house and as such, whilst we very aware of our guests underneath, some noise such as muffled footsteps etc may be heard. If you are a very light sleeper or have a very reactive dog, you might wish to consider whether Surfdogz is suitable for you.

Pet owners please note. We are happy for your dog to be inside providing they remain off the couch and bed and are house trained. If your dog is still in the chewing, digging, scratching phase of life please understand that their owners will be liable for any damage caused. It is also a family neighbourhood so continually barking dogs are not welcome.

Great dog friendly stay
We had a great 2 night stay with our dog. The accomodation was comfortable, clean and warm. Able to use facilities to make breakfast in the morning. A cook plate for a hot breaky would be an added bonus. Amazing to have a place that is so dog friendly. Lovely hosts too.with a lovely bottle of wine on arrival. Thank you!

Unpleasant stay
Unfortunately our stay at Surfdogz wasn’t great. We arrived and discovered the accommodation had a very unpleasant smell. The photos on the app of the bbq area are misleading, as the area is very unappealing. The bbq area is so dirty and I can’t imagine anyone wanting to cook or eat in that area. The accomodation needs a thorough clean, the windows were extremely dirty and the building is covered with cobwebs. There is no insulation between the two levels and unfortunately can be quite noisy.

Great stay, easy check in process with clean rooms and secure backyard for dog. The location was close to the Main Street but up quite a big hill if you plan on walking, besides that everything was wonderful!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Very friendly host and super easy to deal with. Great accomodation for dogs too with a safe, private courtyard. We will definitely be back knowing there is a great place to stay with our dog Roughy. Thank you some much!
