From the dining, sit back with a glass of wine and watch a nightly sunset cast brilliant colours through the floor to ceiling windows. Retreat to the lounge, warmed by a gas log fire stunningly framed by a feature wall. Relax in the zen zone with a plush, fully adjustable futon & stocked vinyl collection.

We had a lovely time on the first day of winter, snuggling up on the super comfortable couch with the gas fire going. A peaceful home, nice and comfortable.
This property was the perfect place to have my girls birthday weekend away. The house was beautifully spacious and clean and had everything we needed. Thanks Tanya for letting us stay in your gorgeous cosy home ❤️
Stayed here for a kid-free weekend away with girlfriends. Plenty of space, very clean and comfortable. Styling of the house is so lovely too! The view out the dining area into the back garden was so relaxing.
Would definitely stay here again, thank you so much Tanya!
We greatly enjoyed our stay and loved the special touches inside the house, the wallpapers, the fabulous record player and great music choices, the pretty and green backyard with many local birds and much more. The house has everything needed to have a relaxed getaway and is conveniently located not far from the beach, shops and activities. Would love to stay here again - thank you, Tanya
Lovely private accommodation.
Clean, spacious and has everything you need. Decorated very tastefully. Comfortable couch and beds. Record player was a hit with my husband and the games selection was fun for all. Great communication from the owner and highly recommended.
A lovely place to go to and relax. The layout of the house suited us fine. Loved the garden setting. Tranquil and serene. When next going up that way will definitely book the house again.
Our family of 5 had a very relaxing long weekend.
Home is presented well and was very clean.
Garden was also kept well and very relaxing.
We also enjoyed a visit to the Peninsula Hot Springs which is a 10 minute drive from the house.
Would recommend a stay here if you're a family looking for accommodation in the area.
Thank you Tanya for your hospitality and for sharing your home.
A beautiful home with everything we needed for a relaxing escape.
The house is beautiful. We felt relaxed as soon as we arrived. It as warm and cozy and full of natural light. The house had everything we needed. The beds were super comfy, with lovely linen. The kids explored the garden and the toys and books. Everyone enjoyed the cosy gas fire.
It was perfect. Host was easy and quick to communicate with. Highly recommend.
This is a lovely place to stop and recharge for a while. Comfy couch and gas log fire to keep toasty. Comfy warm beds, great kitchen and dining. Beautiful touches and decor. The record player was great though some of the records were quite dirty. A great location to discover wineries and foods in the area.
A beautiful home in the heart of Rosebud. It was warm, cosy and functional. A great place for good friends or a family to relax, and hang out.
Close to shops, wineries, beaches and national parks.
The house has very comfortable beds, a cosy fire place, and all the necessities needed for a fabulous stay. My friends and i absolutely loved our stay, drinking wine by the fireplace, catching up on old times, trips to the hot springs.
Absolutely perfect. Highly recommend.
What a gorgeous place! Beautifully decorated and equipt with everything you need and more...fabulous hosts. The only downside to these old places is that you can hear everything from upstairs in the downstairs room. We spent a lot of time on the deck enjoying the serenity and the sunsets, especially with the addition of the outside heater. Would stay here again for sure.
The property has a lovely floor plan that catered well to our family (with school age children).
Less than 10 minutes to Rosebud Pier, and within an easy drive of a number of fun family activities - made for a really lovely holiday.
This property was perfect and communication by the host was excellent. It’s location and the beautiful surroundings make this home a perfect trip for any group of people looking to relax at the peninsula.
Clean and well maintained house in nice setting. Very comfortable and equipped with multiple air conditioners. Good wifi good tv and a record player with some awesome vinyl. great family getaway.
