Great property by the beach

Nice homely and private property with great storage for boat/caravan. Great location with easy walk to Blairgowrie Cafe, beach and yacht club. Late check in and early check out (relative to other properties) was disappointing but overall, the property was perfect for our family and small dog. Highly recommend.

Beautiful Property

We have just returned to Melbourne after spending 8 wonderful nights at The Buoys. The property is a credit to the owners. We wanted for nothing. The thought that went into catering for our needs was amazing. The property is in pristine condition and the ambience and warmth we felt was just bliss. Thank you so much in making us feel so welcome. We will be back!

Perfect walking distance to Blairgowrie shops. Situated directly opposite the off leash dog beach.

We had a lovely stay at this well appointed property. The large secure garden was the icing on the cake.

Great experience

The pet friendly property was just perfect for us. We especially loved the very large, well kept and secure outside space which enabled the adults to relax while the children and our dog played. The wood fire made for very cosy wet and cold days and nights.

We had a great week

Location of property was fantastic . We took our pet whippet and the grounds were large and secure. The property is right opposite the dog beach so perfect for us. The property itself was fantastic and great charm. Extremely clean, very comfortable and had everything we could ask for. Great outside living area with bbq etc . Next stay on the peninsula will definitely be back at buoys. Tony and andrea

Great location

Nice quaint little Blairgowrie beach-side cottage in a great location. Bedding mattresses for us where poor (too hard). Did not get a good night's sleep for parents or kids. Otherwise everything else was fine.

Great property, amazing location

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Buoys over Easter 2017. The Buoys is not a big house, but comfortably sleeps 6 people. The property it is on is very big, and we were able to bring our dog, which was an absolute bonus. All amenities you would want were provided and we had a great stay.
