24.01.2022 Sorry about "over sharing" the last post ( 4 times !). Not sure what happened or what I did but it was lovely in Sorrento today.

24.01.2022 Just received this lovely email message from Trish & Neil M. from QLD after her Christmas stay at Blakiston House (23 - 27 Dec 14) "How lucky we were to find Blakiston House for our family gathering this Christmas. Everything we could possibly want or need to make us comfortable was provided. The atmosphere of the cottage draws you in and welcomes you from every corner. Such care has been taken in the presentation of this lovely cottage. Big breakfasts at the table, snoozing ...with a book on the bean bags, playing cards on the deck and a comfy bed to fall into at the end of the day. Memories are made of this and we will remember with fondness our stay at Blakiston House. A big thankyou to Chris for all the little touches to welcome us in and making it so easy easy for us to enjoy. We will return." Thanks so much Trish & Neil. We are so happy you had a nice stay.

22.01.2022 Everything is ready for our Easter Guests! Heres hoping the weather stays nice for the long weekend. Wishing all our Facebook friends and past Guests a very Happy and Safe Easter from Blakiston House. xxx

We would love to have you back again anytime Breanna and thank you again! Chris xx Breanna M. said...... 02/11/2015 "So relaxing" Date of Stay 30 October 2015 "From my first email with Chris to when we left her wonderful home she was nothing but amazing! Very helpful and quick to respond! She made the whole process very easy! We walked into the most beautiful home to a welcome hamper and wine which was such a wonderful unexpected delight! The house is perfect for anyone! Couldnt get over the detail and inclusions! Simply a stunning house in a perfect location minutes from the beach! We did not want to leave and this will for sure be our go to holiday home from now on! Thank you once again!!"

19.01.2022 With the Queens Birthday weekend and the School Holidays fast approaching, I bet you haven"t thought about a Mornington Peninsula getaway now that the colder weather has set in! Well dont let the weather put you off. There is so much to do on the Peninsula all year-round so why not make Blakiston House your base. - Visit one of the many Wineries or Restaurants dotted... along the Peninsula. -Take your Bikes and ride trails around the incredible Point Nepean National Park. - Try Treesurfing or tuberiding at the Enchanted Maze in Arthurs Seat. - Visit the Historic Heronswood House in Dromana and enjoy the beautiful views over Port Phillip Bay while walking through the famous Gardens. -Take a walk along any of the Bay or Ocean Beaches. -Visit a Market to pick up some fresh, local produce or handmade goods. -Take the Ferry from Sorrento for the day and enjoy the beautiful Queenscliff village. -Visit the Peninsula Hot Springs The List is endless and with all these activities and more within either walking distance or a short drive from Blakiston House, it is the perfect place for your Winter getaway! Check our website at www.blakistonhouse.com.au for available dates and rates and please "share" this post with Friends. See more

17.01.2022 Thrilled to see some photos of Blakiston House featured on the Mulbury facebook page. They did a Fantastic job framing all the Prints and photos hanging throughout the House. We would love say a big Thank you to them again and we would highly recommend their work.

16.01.2022 Thank you so much to Lousie C. for the wonderful review, posted on our Blakiston House page on www.homeaway.com.au Its always great to hear some feedback from our Guests and I am so happy that Louise & her Family had a great time. (Posted 19 Jan 2015- Stayed 2nd - 5th Jan 15) SIMPLY STUNNING BEACH ESCAPE... 5 out of 5 What can I say, this property was simply stunning. We stayed at Blakiston House for 4 nights on 2nd Jan 2015 with our 17 month old son and my parents, who were visiting from Scotland. This is a newly renovated property that has had a lot of love, care and attention to detail. Christine and her Husband have done an amazing job of making this a wonderful, relaxing property to have an escape to. Let me list some of the key points: - The property was very clean and very well maintained - lots of towels provided, including beach towels and mats for the beach. - The property was as described and better, the property looks amazing in the photos, but I have to say the photos do not do this place justice! - Christine, was a perfect host, very responsive to emails and calls, very friendly and accommodating. - The secluded rear garden was a great little sun trap and a kid trap too! we have an active baby boy who we didnt have to worry about whilst playing in the garden. - There are lots of DVDs available for both kids and adults. - Close proximity to beach, about 3 min walk and 5-7 mins to the town of Rye and the nearest supermarket. Lots of lovely cafes and restaurants in Rye. - The house is very open plan, bright and airy and we felt completely relaxed and absolutely enjoyed our stay. - House is located on a very quiet street with friendly neighbours. We will be back in the very near future and have already recommended this holiday property to our friends back in Melbourne. My only regret was that the property was booked either side of our stay and we couldnt stay longer! Thank you Christine for allowing us to stay at your gorgeous home, we will be back soon.

10.01.2022 A great new business has opened on the Peninsula. Its called Peninsula Explorer (www.peninsularexplorer.com) and is a hop on, hop off, open topped double decker bus. It travels to 18 stops on the Peninsula from Boneo to Portsea and is a great way to see the sights. An added Bonus is that there is a pick up point in the Rye Township so you can walk from Blakiston House without needing to take the Car. Looks like a good day out visiting everywhere from the Beaches, townships to Popular attractions like the Hot Springs and even a Winery along the way !!

10.01.2022 Hi Everyone, Sorry its been a while but weve been really busy over the Christmas period with plenty of sunshine and lots of lovely Guests and it looks like it is going to continue all throughout Feb. Lets hope the sunshine does too !!! We received this lovely review by email from Ruth C. following her stay over the New Year period.... Ruth C said.."Hi Chris, We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in your beautiful house, you provided everything we could have needed or wanted. The house is decorated so tastefully, we were wondering if you are a cyclist as we noticed the art referred to the Tour de France. As cyclists ourselves we found it very interesting. I prefer to book direct with owners of properties as I have found in the past some of the reviews on Stayz arent accurate. We would definitely like to return to Blakiston House in the future and will pass on our recommendations to others. Thank you so much once again for making our holiday very memorable. We would be more than happy for you to add our comments to your reviews, properties with such impeccable standards as yours deserve high recommendations. Kind Regards, Ruth .." We have been extremely lucky to have hosted some wonderful Guests throughout January and even to receive some repeat bookings for next year ! Please visit our website at www.blakistonhouse.com.au for Prices and available dates. Thanks, Chris. xx
