Wonderful retreat!
We had an incredible two-night stay at Maree and Bill’s studio. From the moment we arrived, we felt at home with our private entrance and the warm welcome for our two Shih Tzus, who joined us on this trip. The location is unbeatable—just a five-minute walk to the beach and the creek trail, and a short drive to the renowned wineries of the Bellarine Peninsula.The studio is thoughtfully designed, featuring a beautifully built patio with a Weber barbecue, which we used to prepare our meals, and a well-equipped kitchen with a fully stocked pantry (thank you for that thoughtful touch!). The living space was cozy and comfortable, complete with a luxurious bathtub and a TV with streaming services to relax after a day of exploring.Maree and Bill truly went above and beyond to create a welcoming, relaxing retreat. We can’t wait to return!

Beautiful property, quiet area. We were only dropping in on our way through down to Tassie but after a full day of driving it was a nice destination to get too to relax. The extra touches with the doggy beds were a great touch.

Great place for a getaway
We really enjoyed our stay at this appartment in Curlewis. It was well located with great walking tracks and easy access to the beach. It was a clean and very comfortable place to stay and had everything we needed. Access was easy and our hosts were helpful but very mindful of privacy. Our dog was also very happy here. Lovely place.

Returned to a little gem
We have been back for another 2 night stay and enjoyed this beautiful accommodation as much as the first time. Luxurious linen and bath towels add the utmost comfort and the little patio now offers a little bistro setting for breakfast or a BBQ dinner outside. Even the neighbourhood is lovely to walk and with a view to the ocean we can only say that this is a beautiful find. Thanks for hosting Maree and Bill !

Clean, comfortable, quiet, close to beach
Beautiful accommodation. Every little need is thoughtfully met from the variety of milk & non dairy milk options in the fridge, a large hammock bed and soft futon for our dog and quality products throughout. We loved being able to let our dog off her lead outside knowing the yard was safely enclosed. Super clean, super comfortable, private and quiet. Maree and Bill have done a wonderful job providing lovely accommodation.

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.

Great stay
I only stayed one night but I had a great time at this property! Everything was clean and felt very welcoming, the bed comfy, the bath inviting (though I unfortunately did not have time for a bath). It was the first time traveling with my anxious dog and I couldn't have tried a better place first. I was also lucky enough to run into Maree and Bill. Both are very nice and recommended to walk along the creek to the beach with my dog which was a lovely walk. I would definitely recommend staying here!
