Lovely character cottage. Wonderful setting. Well kept gardens and accessible pool. Friendly hosts. Quiet. Cleanliness needed more attention to detail. Basically clean, but dusty in places and some healthy cobwebs.
We loved our stay at this property. Kids loved the animals and being able to walk around the gardens. Close enough to Geelong city for dinner.Only slightly frustrating thing was the dog barking on and off at night.
My daughter and I had a truly wonderful holiday at the Historic SoHo Estate.The lake and gardens surrounding the estate were absolutely beautiful, and the cottage itself was charming and well-equipped. It had everything we could have wished for, including fresh eggs and flowers to welcome us upon arrival. The estate also featured a heated pool and a tennis court, which were lovely additions to our stay. While we did enjoy a refreshing swim, one of our favorite moments was simply relaxing poolside with a glass of wine.The location was perfect for exploring all the Bellarine beaches.Kate, our hostess, went above and beyond in providing helpful information about the best local spots to visit. One of her excellent recommendations was Scotchmans Hill winery, where we enjoyed delicious wines and food while taking in the stunning views.Kateâs thoughtfulness and attentive hospitality truly enhanced our experience. The combination of the estate and her warm welcome made for a memorable and relaxing getaway.
The fire place is a cracker ! Only downside is that there is only one bathroom in the master bedroom . The cottage is better for a getaway for couples.
This place is amazing, with beautiful grounds, views, a high quality pool and tennis court- we really did not need to leave the place. When we did go out though, the property is close to beautiful beaches, wineries, and restaurants. The host Kate is great, she was very accommodating. We loved our stay.
