“It was quite difficult to bring myself to drive away from this little farm stay haven. Caitlyn & Nick have created such a warm, cosy and unique experience and we loved every minute of our stay. So many thoughtful touches made our stay extra special. I am hesitant to give too much more praise out of fear it’ll be booked out next time we try to stay here. We’ll definitely be back.” - Nicola, 2022
“We absolutely loved our stay at The Mavis cottage. It was the perfect place to enjoy the Pensinsula’s many wonderful offerings. The cottage was beautiful, perfectly clean, comfortable and thoughtfully styled. The outdoor bath and fireplace made it exactly what we were looking for in a winter’s weekend away. The farm outlook from the cottage was stunning and we enjoyed wandering down to see the goats. Caitlyn & Nick were exceptional hosts and all of their local recommendations were excellent. We’ll definitely be back to visit again!” - Michael, 2021
“We had an amazing stay over Xmas at the Farm! This place is even better in real life than in the photos. The cottage was really cosy and clean. It was great to relax and enjoy the countryside views from the outdoor bath. The location is perfect: secluded but still nearby to Dromana, wineries and the hot springs. Caitlyn & Nick were great to communicate with and they even introduced us to the baby goats which was a real highlight. Would recommend staying here to anyone and we'd love to come back!” - Kristina, 2020
“We absolutely loved our stay at the cottage. The place is styled to perfection as a super cute farmhouse cottage and was sparking clean. Beds were firm but really comfortable and the cottage had all the amenities we needed. The outdoor bath is amazing! Great place to relax and has a beautiful and private outlook across the farm. Great spot to watch the sunset. The location is perfect, just a 5-10 minutes drive from shops in Dromana (which has the best IGA supermarket I have ever seen) and many great wineries in the area. Only a short drive to the many activities the peninsula has to offer. Nick was great to communicate with and had great suggestions for things to do in the area.” - Hannah, 2019
“The cottage is set in a brilliant location on the Mornington Peninsula, around 5 mins from Dromana, 30 mins from Sorrento and 20 mins from the Peninsula Hot Springs. It’s also 3 minutes away from Dromana drive in - an old school drive in cinema that we found by chance and absolutely LOVED. The setting is gorgeous, surrounded by green fields and rolling hills with beautiful views of both from the kitchen and living room. There are goats and other animals in the paddocks and it’s far enough away from any light pollution to get an incredible view of the Milky Way at night (we went outside at around tenish for a bit of night photography and could even see mars just from out the front of the cottage). The inside of the cottage is fit out to a high standard, with every detail thought of down to a stack of chopped firewood set up ready to light for a cosy fire… Overall we had a perfect and relaxing weekend away from Melbourne at the Mavis and would definitely recommend booking for yourselves” - Liberty, 2018
“My family and I absolutely loved our stay at Birch Creek. The cottage was incredibly clean and cosy and had gorgeous little touches such as fresh flowers and firewood ready on our arrival. The location is great as it’s close to everything, and the outlook from the cottage over the farm is lovely. We especially enjoyed our visits down to the goats each morning. It was a thrill to see them race to the fence with excitement.” -Hannah, 2018
