Liam and Susie
House was built in the 1920s and Moved to Lakes Entrance in the 1960s was used as a Boarding House. Now is home for Susie, Liam and our dog Molly and our cat Middy. Family are all grown up and have left the nest and we have rooms that don't get used. We have changed our bed and Breakfast, It is now separate from our area and just one Bedroom for guests you now have your own Dining\Lounge and Kitchenette you still have outside areas to sit read have a coffee or wine and conversation. When you arrive there will be home made Scones. Jam and Cream in the fridge made by Susie. Look forward to having guests stay again
