Group trip
We camped on Wayne and Deb's farm over a busy long weekend on Phillip Island and it was wonderful to have such a quiet place to come back to, away from crowds.
Close to Berry's beach for walks and rockpools, close to Phillip Island winery for drinks, food and music. A short drive to a local cafe and a great base for exploring the island.
Wayne and Deb were friendly and checked in to make sure we had everything we needed.
Paddock was spacious and we had lots of space to spread out.
The water tap close to our van was handy.
A great stay and would recommend for a quiet getaway on the island.

Weekend Trip to Sommerleigh
We had an absolutely wonderful stay at Sommerleigh! Gorgeous location that had everything we needed, nestled in nature and surrounded by so many birds. It felt intimate and private, perfect for a romantic weekend away. The wood stove was absolutely divine and rainy weather was no problem because it was so cosy rugged up indoors by the fire watching the rain through the big windows and hearing the rain on the tin roof.
Jeff was lovely and made sure we knew everything we needed to know before leaving us to it.
I highly recommend this special gem of a stay!

Such a unique and restful place with beautiful views and diverse wildlife that is being fostered and restored by our hosts. Aside from going out for dinner, we stayed put until it was time to leave. Much gratitude.

Jeff has spent an enormous amount of time and effort in creating this special place.
With 158 different bird species, set amongst the wetlands, there is a theatre of wildlife only 90 minutes from Melbourne.
The room is well appointed and many finer details often overlooked on your more tradition accommodation.
Everything you need is provided, just remember to read the notes before hand as we failed to do, ie bring ice for the provided esky.
It's combines the best attributes of a tiny house with plenty of space to cook, sleep, chill out and relax.

Weekend Trip to Sommerleigh
My partner and I adored our weekend in this little slice of paradise! Tucked away on a tiny island in the middle of a billabong on Jeff's vineyard, it was pure peace. We were the only ones on the island, aside from many different birds. We loved waking up to their songs, and the sound of rain on the tin roof. No traffic, no other people, just nature and a beautifully quirky bushland garden dotted with old treasures.
The setup was simple but magical, very clean and well maintained: two cosy tin shacks (bedroom and kitchen) plus a small loo shack with a flushing toilet! The bedroom was warm and snug with a fireplace and comfy double bed. BYO bedding.
No mains power or fridge, so bring ice for the cooler and a battery pack to charge devices, though we barely touched our phones. The outdoor showers (one next to the bedroom, and one behind the kitchen) were surprisingly lovely, even in the rain, thanks to hot gas-heated water.
Jeff was a friendly, funny, and accommodating host who welcomed us warmly even though we arrived a little late and in the dark.
Bring a torch, hot water bottle, and warm layers in winter. Notes on accessibility: You'll need to carry all your belongings from the car over a narrow pier and gravel path, a 1-2 minute walk total, which is very doable if you're able-bodied, and Jeff said he can offer a wheelbarrow to help.
A peaceful, grounding spot, perfect for bird watchers, nature lovers, and anyone wanting to truly switch off. We’ll definitely be back.
