Easy and clean

This property was the perfect place to stay. We spent all our time in Walhalla so it was an easy drive to and from there. The house was warm, cosy, well equiped and everything worked. I'd recommend it.

Very pleasant experience in high-country region

Thanks for an enjoyable winter escape experience at Al'May conveniently located close to Victoria's beautiful region. Well presented, warm accommodation with a lovely garden and the nearby park as the extension to the garden. It was suitable for our family. Rawson township does have limited shopping and dining options, but abundant in nature.
