Great place to stay
The property was as listed but added touches made it a bit more special such as milk and fruit being available. We had a great stay and would stay again next time we are in Melbourne.

A lovely house in a lovely garden
Gardenvale Cottage is a lovely property, with 2 bedrooms, a spacious living room, well equipped kitchen and a large well maintained back yard with patio furniture and BBQ. It s close to the Sandringham Metro, and a about a 20-25 minute walk to a lovely sandy beach. It is close to grocery stores, pubs and cafes. Katie, the owner, is right next to the property and is very responsive to questions and very helpful and welcoming. We had a lovely time there and would highly recommend it to people who like to do housekeeping in a nice neighbourhood.
