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!

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!

Great apartment, great spot
Sportzdog is a great little apartment for a couple and a dog. Close to the dog beach up on the hill, views were great. Apartment was exceptionally clean and tidy with everything we needed. We had that we needed and were very comfortable. Great place to get a bit of extra exercise walking up to the property and beautiful views doing so. Would certainly stay here again.

Surfdogz
Firstly the host was very friendly and accommodating. I had a couple of issues and they sorted them out for me. It is very clean, they switched the split system on before I arrived to warm it up. I definitely chose the coldest 3 days of the year to stay at Lorne, only one day was nice enough to walk on the beach. I booked for 3 nights but only stayed for 2 due to the weather. The access to the premises is risky if you have a smaller car, mine is a Corolla. It would be suitable to an SUV or a 4 wheel drive as they don't have a propper driveway, you have to driver over the kerb. The only way I could get in without scraping underneath my car was to drive into next doors driveway and over the grass nature strip to get to their driveway. This got a bit hairy after two or three times, when I left I felt my wheels slipping and I thought I was going to get bogged but I finally got out, my wheels were spinning. They said I could park on the road but it is very narrow and I was concerned my car would get hit. Plus I had things to carry all the way down their driveway. I realise they live upstairs, but it is a bit noisy through the day, I could hear children running across the floor. It settled down at night but you can hear their every movement, including opening and closing of cupboard doors. There is only a microwave and a kettle/toaster so there is no way to really cook any breakfast there is an outdoor bbq but too cold. It is high up on a hill so quite a walk into Lorne.

Great getaway!
We loved our stay and being able to have our dog join us on holiday was definitely an added bonus. Surfdogz was clean and well kept and had everything we needed for our short stay. The apartment was in a great position, close to the dog beach and the charming town of Lorne. Communication with the hosts throughout the entire process was second-to-none. Responses were timely and nothing was too much trouble - even after we had returned home and realised an item had been left behind. Thank you!

The property is compact
The property is clean and very compact. There is no stove or cooktop inside, just a bbq outside- and very few cooking utensils- this made preparation of food difficult- if you are happy to eat out this is fine.
