Dec 28, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Most enjoyable. The place was very comfy, with all your needs. We stayed 3 nights. The main Bed was comfortable, bunk was good, accept you couldn't sit up and read. Catered for children, with high chair and some toys. Great for young families. But we are an older couple, and we found the stairway a killer. And to top it off the bathroom was down stairs. We had to take one step at a time and there is no hand rail, which made it very difficult for us with bad knees. That was a minor problem for us. I would highly recommend but not for unfit elderly...Thank you to the owners, we enjoyed very much.. ##### Chris B.

Apr 18, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Peaceful, quiet, comfortable - a great base to explore NE Victoria After a tough year of lockdown, masks and working from home, it was great to spend time in the country - away from phones, laptops, duty rosters etc! We needed a break and our time at Lima South gave us that in heaps! We loved the rustic charm, the incredible views over the farm looking one way and the bbq pit the other way. We could walk to Lake Nillicoorte and it was a shortish drive into Benalla to explore the fantastic art gallery. It was a great base to explore the NE silo art trail and the Winton wetlands. Very comfortable bed, a large living area and well equipped kitchen (although providing some oil would be helpful). Apart from that we had everything we needed for a restful stay. And the easter eggs was a wonderful surprise . . . as was the wine in the room. We recommend it! ##### Teri S. Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tessa C. Mar 22, 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Place was great! Beautiful views! Beautiful shed done up into a house. Amazing views topped off with an huge fire pit out the front 🙌 The lake is right across the road, you can walk or drive it which is a 2 minutes drive to put the boat in. Very much enjoyed this place for a good get away! Im from the country and I enjoyed it but my friends are from Melbourne and they loved it! Highly recommended 🙌 ##### Tessa C. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Hotels with an Indoor Pool in Brandon](https://www.expedia.ca/Brandon-Hotels-Hotels-With-Indoor-Pool.0-0-d3902-tHotelswithIndoorPool.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Langham, Melbourne](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Langham.h2112.Hotel-Information) > > [Furaveri Maldives](https://www.expedia.ca/Furaveri-Hotels-Furaveri-Maldives-Stay-4-Nights-Or-MORE-From-01-May-To-31-Oct-2025.h12809109.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Fairmont-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h522363.Hotel-Information) > > [Shearwater Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Shearwater-Hotels-Shearwater-Resort.h11114220.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sebel Whitsundays Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-At-Blue-Horizon-Resort-Apartments.h2650727.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon](https://www.expedia.ca/Fagurholsmyri-Hotels-Fosshotel-Glacier-Lagoon.h12794262.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.ca/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [The Hotel Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Melbourne-Hotels-The-Hotel-Windsor.h11362.Hotel-Information) > > [Bonnie Doon Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Bonnie-Doon-Hotels-Bonnie-Doon-Hotel.h20516057.Hotel-Information) > > [Cottages Windsor](https://www.expedia.ca/Windsor-Cottages.d6127335-aaCottages.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Hotels in Niagara Falls](https://www.expedia.ca/Niagara-Falls-Hotels.d6023515.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Comfort Inn Sudbury](https://www.expedia.ca/Sudbury-Hotels-Comfort-Inn-Sudbury.h9955.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yyz/calgary-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Athens (ATH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ath/toronto-to-athens) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Los Angeles (LAX)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/lax/toronto-to-los-angeles) > > [Flights from Mexico City (MEX) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/mex/yeg/mexico-city-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Ajnala (ATQ) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/atq/yyz/sri-guru-ram-das-ji-intl-airport-to-toronto) ### Cars > [Car rentals near Langdale Ferry Terminal](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Langdale-Ferry-Terminal.d553248621584289350.Car-Rental-Guide) ### Cruise > [Cruises to Panama Canal Zone](https://www.expedia.ca/Cruises-to-Panama-Canal-Zone.d6222968.Travel-Guide-Cruise) ### Activities > [Things to do in Mismaloya](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Mismaloya.d6051317.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Cabo San Lucas](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Cabo-San-Lucas.d180032.Travel-Guide-Activities) > > [Things to do in Puerto Morelos](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Puerto-Morelos.d180137.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Dubai Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Dubai.d1079.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [all inclusive vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations) ### General > [Visit Long Island](https://www.expedia.ca/Long-Island.dx602887)
