Winter getaway
The Gables is on point. What a beautiful property. Everything is fresh and new. Huge kitchen Island bench where you can prepare dinner and have a glass of wine. Large screen tv on the wall above the fire/heater with 2 amazing couches that you don't want to get out of. This place is beautifully appointed that suits families or multiple couples to enjoy a Peninsula getaway. 5-7 minute drive to Sorrento main road, walking distance to the General Store and Blairgowrie shops. We absolutely loved it. Highly recommended
Stayed 6 nights in Jul 2024
