Peaceful and relaxing hideaway on the hill
We had four adults stay for four nights in this beautiful house. Perched high on the hill in a very quiet part of town. The view is stunning and the central upstairs lounge, with its glass walls feels like being in a tree house, so relaxing and peaceful. The coffee machine was very popular, the collection of puzzles and games were great fun. The beds were super comfortable. The location is close to town but a challenge to walk home. Also close to the top of the hill so easy access to the short walks around teddy’s lookout. Lots of wildlife including koalas, kangaroos and parrots. The house is immaculate and i can’t fault a thing about it. Would definitely stay again and have recommended it to all my friends. We loved it!
Absolutely exceeded our expectations. We will be back!
This is a massively well appointed home. Firstly, the view is spectacular from several angles. You even get a view from one of the downstairs bedrooms. It was an average of 13 degrees during our stay but the hearing system in each room worked a treat. Each bed was comfortable and the location was peaceful for getting a good night’s sleep.
On arrival we were treated to a good bottle of Pinot Noir and some coffee beans for the quality coffee machine. The appliances, kitchenware and other creature comforts made this the best rented property we’ve ever stayed at.
The views are everything the photos promise. The house has all the luxuries you’d want like coffee machine and very comfy beds, quality towels etc. We were very comfortable here and the extras like ping pong table and easy access garage topped it off. Highly recommend.
A beautiful home, set at the top of Lorne. The home is surrounded by tall gum trees and has ocean views as far as the eye can see. We'd definitely stay again. Thanks for having us.
Fantastic property for a family with separate kids zone downstairs and well soundproofed, leaving the parents to enjoy the stunning views upstairs. The walk up is tough but a great workout!!Loved our stay and hope to come back.

Beautiful House with Stunning Views
We spent seven days in Lorne and loved every moment of it. The house was perfect for our stay and provided an incredibly relaxing vibe for all of us. We were overwhelmed with the view and how well equipped the house was. We look forward to returning again one day! Thank you for such a beautiful stay!

Had everything!
There were 9 of us staying and everyone was blown away by the holiday home itself, the setting and views along with the amenities! We all enjoyed ourselves and were disappointed our stay ended when it did!

Outstanding views!
I visited with some cycling buddies. Mostly we rode, but when in the house gave the espresso machine a complete workout. Obviously the lock-up garage was key for storing all of our bikes. Very easy

What a great place!
A great place for a weekend away. We had 6 adults who were able to sleep very comfortably across the 4 bedrooms, with some spare beds in there if needed. The location was great for us because we prefer that side of Lorne where it is more sheltered. There was plenty to do when not at the beach including walks, games, videos and a table tennis table. Everything was very comfortable and the weather was sensational. The living and outdoor areas were a great space to kick back and relax and have a BBQ. Highly recommended.

What a great stay
We stayed at Horizons with our kids and another couple and their kids (9 in total). It was a really good experience. The house is a short walk from Teddy's lookout which we walked to a couple of times. It is well appointed with new TVs, microwave, crockery etc and was very clean. There was sufficient room for parents to enjoy the spectacular view on the upstairs balcony while the kids played games or watched TV downstairs, or ping pong in the garage - plenty of room for everyone. Pity we were discouraged from feeding the parrots (we did it anyway!).
