Nestled amongst rolling farmland with uninterrupted sweeping views of Westernport, the Guesthouse is an endearing 2 bedroom house adjacent to the owners farm house.
The house has a fully equipped kitchen, beautiful curated interiors. Curl up by the fire in the cooler months or enjoy the large deck and stunning view, local beaches and incredible walks.
The home I’d love to wake up in each morning. An ideal spot to slow down and reconnect.

Terms and Conditions
General
By booking any accommodation, catering, activities or services at Five Acres you agree to these terms and conditions. In the event that you book through a third-party platform such as Airbnb.com, the terms and conditions of that platform also apply to your booking; however, these terms and conditions rank in priority.
These terms and conditions apply to the person booking the accommodation/goods/services with Five Acres, along with any children, guests, or other persons present on the Five Acres property.
The person booking the accommodation/goods/services with Five Acres is responsible for any financial matters, such as damage to property, and also for the behaviour and conduct of any parties present at Five Acres on account of that person’s booking.
Five Acres is a working farm, with live animals, machinery, native wildlife and other risks. Staying at, or attending the property is entirely at your risk and the risk of the attendees. Please be alert to your surroundings at all times. We require that all animals at Five Acres are treated with care and respect. Children must be supervised by their parents at all times.
You must comply with the directions of our staff in relation to all matters.
Should you, your children or your guests act in any way that Five Acres determines is inappropriate, dangerous or otherwise unacceptable, you and your group will be required to leave the property. In these circumstances, no refund or credit will be issued in respect of unused accommodation/goods/services.
Five Acres requires the holding of credit card details as security for damage, excess cleaning costs and extra charges incurred in relation to your visit. A $500 pre-authorisation will be activated on the morning of arrival and will be deactivated 7 days after departure if no funds are required to be retained for cleaning or damage.
In the event that damage is caused to the property by you or your children/guests, you will be liable for such damage and all costs associated with such damage shall be deducted from your credit card pre-authorisation. If the credit card pre-authorisation does not cover the damage, then those further costs shall be debited to the credit card which was provided upon your booking with Five Acres. You agree to the deduction of such amounts from your credit card.
No smoking is permitted on the Five Acres property or within the buildings/accommodation at Five Acres. Those smoking will be asked to leave the property. In the event of smoking taking place in the buildings, you will be charged an additional cleaning fee of $770 to clean carpets, curtains and air conditioners, etc.

You, on behalf of yourself, your children, your guests, personal representatives and any other heirs, irrevocably agree to release, waive, discharge, hold harmless, defend, and indemnify Five Acres and all its staff from any and all claims, actions or losses as a result of bodily injury, property damage, wrongful death, loss of services or otherwise which may arise out of participation in all activities while at the property.
