Relaxing and homely in brilliant location

We had a fantastic stay here and already plan to return. The convenient location within walking distance of everything we needed in Portarlington was brilliant, but when not out and about we spent most of our time on the back deck watching the birds enjoy the expansive garden. Family and friends joined us for the weekends, and there was plenty of space for all of us. Thank you, Will and family, for sharing your lovely home.

A quiet oasis with everything we needed

From the moment we parked to when we left, we loved our stay. The backyard is generous and beautifully landscaped. We had such a beautiful time relaxing on the deck. Also a very short walk to the shops and beach. We wish we were still there. Thank you for a magical get away

Just what we needed

Our group stayed over Christmas and was exactly what we needed for a group getaway, we used the kitchen to cook our Christmas Day lunch and the town was quiet but close to the wineries, breweries and the adventure water park that we had planned for our trip. The only thing that we missed was having a smart tv, but we made do with the dvd collection and free to air cricket!

Another great stay at Willis Place

Always a few new extras at the home which we really appreciate - butter and spreads plus milk in the fridge. New coffee machine looks great! The deck and yard are so great for our fur babies- plenty to explore and grass to roll on! Always a wonderful stay 😁

Central and great for kids

We've had a great time and kids really enjoyed all the backyard entertainment including the trampoline and table tennis. Will and Gabe were very accommodating by letting us stay a bit longer on a rainy checkout morning, thank you again! Heated blankets were a welcome bonus. Overall clean, but rated down as bathtub needed a wash and kitchen floor wasn't sweeped. Would recommend and happily return. Cheers

A commodious place

We were in need of an affordable place for two nights as we were enabling an event at the Potato Shed. The accommodation we sought was for ourselves, our daughter (who is heavily pregnant) and her husband, their dog and ours. Willis Place was very suited for this type of purpose and Will himself is very communicative and wants to be helpful.
