Property was great, location and views. Checking into the property is outdated.You have to go to collect the keys from Raywhite Inverloch and then drop them off back at the agency. Haven't done that in years. Would be great if keys where located in a secure site and you could access them via a code.

Venus Bay relaxation

We had a very relaxing time at 'house with a view' cooking meals and visiting local attractions. Very quiet. House had wonderful views of inlet and farmlands (grazing cattle, kangas and Cape Barren Geese), and loved moonscape at night especially lying in bed (front room) watching stars and full moon track across the night sky- felt like glam camping in comfy bed and no mozzies! Beaches were amazing, and nature walks accessible and fantastic - no one else on tracks! House well stocked and local shops good especially Tarwin Lower IGA (had everything we needed including fresh fish and commodities). Loved being able to access Netflix for great films - Bank of Dave, Sleeping Dogs, Between the Lies.Suggestions - clearer information on linen packs being provided as part of rental cost, provision of wifi connection although no problems with phone connections using our own service providers (ie, no wifi available even though code provided), some reading books would be good and games/cards for dull weather days.
