What to do during your stay:

Snuggle up on the couch, read a book, play a board game or enjoy Netflix on the 55” flat-screen TV.

Explore local markets, parklands, bike trails, beaches and art galleries or play a round of golf at one of several nearby golf courses.

The Bellarine Peninsula is also a foodie and wine heaven. Enjoy local produce from makers and growers at almost 50 food and wine destinations throughout the peninsula.

Take a short stroll along the creek takes you to the beach (10 minutes). Watch out for native bird life: magpies, ravens, ibis, ducks, Rainbow lorikeet, black cockatoos, corellas.
A short drive takes you to the beautiful beaches of Ocean Grove, Queenscliff and 13th Beach.

After a full day exploring, relax in the huge soaking tub or enjoy a cuppa or a glass of wine on your private deck.

The kitchenette is equipped with mini fridge, microwave, toaster, crockery and cutlery and basic cooking utensils, as well as a variety of teas, coffee and hot chocolate.

Luxurious and quiet getaway

The studio was much bigger and more luxurious than the photos suggest, the bathroom was out simply, amazing with a huge soaking tub. It was a very quiet neighbourhood so the stay was incredibly relaxing. A short walk down to the bay for some beach access and less than 20 minutes drive to the surf beaches like ocean grove.

Excellent property

Very well presented, spotlessly clean with all amenities as described in the posting. Clearly pet friendly so don’t miss the chance to give your fur baby a break. We chose the place being close to Geelong so we could attend a Golden Retriever gathering at Geelong Showgrounds and it was a great way to spend a weekend.

Pawfect Pet Friendly Place

This is the best pet friendly place we have ever stayed at. It is a very comfortable , modern studio and very well equipped with everything we and our greyhounds need. The dishwasher is super handy and the dogs love the sand pit too. It’s also very centrally located to all the attractions in the Bellarine peninsula. Thanks so much, Maree and Bill for a wonderful stay at your lovely home.

Just put you feet up and relax

Total luxury from the cozyness of the bed and bedding [and that was just for the dog] the accomodation was premium. The stay was really enjoyed by all, from kicking back on the private veranda soaking up the morning sun enjoying a coffee to walks along the local peer. The host was warm and welcoming.

Thank you, Maree and Bill, we had an amazing time celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary, enjoying your great hospitality and perfect accommodation! Our pet Greta loved the beach! every day we were going for long walks exploring the local park lands and the dogs' beaches. our favourite one is in the nearby Ocean Grove location. We cannot thank you enough for the quality, relaxing and joyful time we had during our stay at your beautiful place:)

A perfect luxury pet friendly place

We had a great time at Bill and Maree place. It is a very tidy and lovely stylish property equipped with everything you need. A comfortable bed and nice bathroom. In a great location to explore the Bellarine Peninsula. And it’s very thoughtful pet friendly accommodation, host provided safety outdoor area, sand pit, bowls and a bed. My toy poodle enjoyed it so much. I would definitely introduce to my friends and come again!

Wonderful getaway

We had a wonderful time here. Place is extremely clean! Our friendly hosts, Bill & Maree, thought of every little detail, including towels & bowls for our dogs! We appreciate this even though we brought along ours. We really love relaxing in the lovely bath tub and enjoyed the rain shower ... And it's short drive to the beach. Everything is perfect. If we need to be picky, then perhaps an induction cooker would be nice! Overall, this is a place we would highly recommend to our friends. And oh yes, Bill, we adore your plants & landscaping in the front of your house! Amazing...

Curlewis Pet Friendly Accommodation

To try and find good quality pet friendly accommodation is extremely difficult, however my wife and I struck gold when we found this property in Curlewis near Geelong . It ticked all the boxes that we were after, clean,modern,spacious , extremely comfortable for us and our dog, and an absolutely beautiful bathroom . It’s in an excellent location close to walking trails, shops etc. And only a short drive to the local towns and cities. Very friendly hosts , nothing was too much trouble, very accommodating. Thankyou very much Maree and Bill. Would definitely recommend this property and would not hesitate to stay there again . Kind regards Paul and Anneke.
