The property was the perfect setup for a family reunion, with 14 of us spread across the house and units, which were all very spacious and clean. The main house accommodated all of us at meal times and gatherings, and the kitchens were well equipped for cooking feasts. There are plenty of spaces indoors and outdoors for children to explore and adults to relax. The beach is a short walk away and shops at Queenscliff and Port Lonsdale are within 5-10 minutes' drive. Being on a busy road there is some traffic noise in the main house, however the units are very peaceful. Thanks Sue for being such a thoughtful and responsive host.

Lonsdale Palms is a great house close to the beach with nice gardens and plants, comfortable wherever you are. It is really cosy, spacious, well kept and everything works ok. The host, Sue is really kind, approachable and she was available at any time, There was a welcome basket with delicious treats (coffee, cookies, wine, chocolates, etc) waiting for us when we arrived . And the cherry on the top is that my mother has mobility problems and she was easily moving around the house with the walker & the wheelchair, she was really happy and enjoyed those days very much, which makes us happy too as a family. I highly recommend to stay at Lonsdale Palms and we will be surely coming back soon.

This property suited our family event perfectly. The main house was very well set out for all of us to gather together, and the 2 smaller cottages provided space for people to have ‘time out’ when needed. The kitchens in the 3 houses were very well-equipped. There were many relaxing ‘spaces’, both inside and out...from the cosy front sunroom to the secluded outside areas. The property owner left generous ‘Welcome’ hampers for all of us to enjoy, and the rooms were very comfortable with quality linen and furnishings. Lonsdale Palms is well-located, with access to many scenic walks, beach views, shopping opportunities and dining venues. We would certainly return to Lonsdale Palms, and would recommend the property for families and groups of friends. You will be impressed! Thank you Susanne!
