Each accommodation at the 5-star bed and breakfast has pool views, and guests can enjoy access to a sauna and a hot tub. Guests can make use of the outdoor fireplace or the children's playground, or enjoy views of the garden and inner courtyard. This was unique place in very good way. Staff was superb, amenities were great (even if I didn't have time to use most of them) and their dog was the cutest. Would definitely stay here for longer and will next time in Victoria.
