About this property
Osborne House - Pet Friendly
Take a step back in time with this traditional four-bedroom family home. Osborne House was built with love. The house has all of its original features. Osborne House has fantastic views of the Merimbula Lake and is right in town. The property boasts great off street car and boat parking.
You walk into the house from the porch straight into an open plan dining, kitchen and living room (Quite rare and forward thinking for its time). There is two main bedrooms (one with an ensuite) with queen beds, a laundry, and the bathroom. An add on sees you walk down a hall where there are 2 further bedrooms. The third bedroom has 2 x single beds and the 4th bedroom has 2 x single beds and a set of bunks.

Excellent location and great outlook
Excellent location and great outlook from many rooms. The two queen bed rooms were great.
The bunk room smelt very musty/dusty and there were no screens so windows could not be opened. The wooden sliding door to the bunk bed room did not slide easily.
The single beds bed room was rather musty/dusty and there were small crawling insects that kept being found on the bed that was situated under the window.
The sheets and towels overall were very clean however the doona covers, doonas and spare woollen blankets although good quality needed to be washed as they smelt very dusty/musty. Once I had washed all doona covers/doonas and woollen blankets on the first day our stay was much more comfortable. Both my son and I are allergic to dust so without washing everything our stay would have been full of sneezing and antihistamines.
Love the open plan kitchen and lounge area, great that all the blinds function enough to enable them to be closed each night.

Great location and view
The property was in a great spot, a short walk to the shops and beaches with wonderful views. The beds were comfortable and the towels and bedding were fine. The house is older but works. We had a great time.

Great location, needs some maintenance work to fix the leaks.
We enjoyed our stay. The price was fair. Communication was good. The property needs a bit of maintenance to fix the leaks from the roof, but to be fair there was a lot of rain leading up to our say. Thanks for letting us stay.

Its basic but clean and in a good location
It’s perfect if seeking a basic place to stay. A split system and better cookware cutlery would be a worthwhile investment for the owners
