Great service, cheerful workers who clean up after themselves & do the job they were hired for. Very happy with the results.

This review is for Kardinia Cafe, Geelong VIC

I took 2 little ones to lunch today, we sat outside to eat in the secure play area. I was wrapt with the playgound. Safe, fine for the 2 year old, yet challenging enough for the 4 year old. A
view of Kardinia park through the clear front wall area made it more fun too. Service was prompt, friendly and welcoming. Our lunch was simple, but tasty, well presented and not expensive. I'll be back. They have high chairs too, which is always a bonus. Parking may be an issue for some people, but we need the walk/exercise.

Approximate cost: $15

This review is for Chocolate Lily B&B, Sedgwick VIC

Everything one could want for a quiet country retreat from the hustle and bustle of the city. Comfortable bed, spa bath, well appointed kitchen, games, books, dvds, music & a pool. Surrounded by nature, built as a sustainable home & home grown produce for your breakfast. The owners respect ones privacy, but are extremely welcoming & happy to offer suggestions for other activities to do while staying in the area. We were most happy with our stay.

This review is for The Convent, Daylesford VIC

verified email - 06 Jul 2017

We attended a non traditional wedding here this week. The staff are friendly, extra helpful & down-to-earth. The meals were delicious, the wine was excellent, the ambiance is a step into the past, but sympathetically modernised to retain the wonderful history of the Convent and do honour to the nuns who lived there once. Also popped into the cafe for a snack & again, lovely staff, great food for a fair price and little extras like minding my coffee while I dashed out to the toilet.

This review is for The Manse, Daylesford VIC

We have stayed here twice, midweek, & both times been delighted with the Victorian charm of the building, the authentic decor, comfort of the room & the lovely extra touches of luxury without having to pay 5 star prices. in midwinter it was toasty warm & a short walk to the town's centre. A lovely step back in time but with all the mod cons.

This review is for books around, Geelong VIC

If you love books -real books - & appreciate an imaginative use of space & an enthusiasm for keeping the love of books and reading alive, then this shop has it all. In the heart of Geelong, downstairs, this space has just been begging for someone to come along and breathe new life into it. There are nooks and crannies & a few comfy armchairs scattered for reading. they are still putting it all together, but it is going to be a cool place to hide for a quite read or to pick up a long lost favourite or maybe explore new authors.

This review is for Tech Revive, Geelong VIC

As I am a person who is not tech savvy, Will was a gem in helping me after I smashed my mobile phone. He was able to retrieve all from the old phone & set me up with a new one that suits my needs & budget. He explained all I needed in simple terms & was very patient & kind. After sales service was excellent too, with little extra hints on using the new phone.

This review is for Amelio's Roofing , Melbourne VIC

Prompt reply to my inquiry, fair pricing, well presented young man with sound knowledge & not at all pushy. Came in, did the job, left little mess behind & even returned the next day to check on a loose tile. I was quite impressed with the professional attitude & the way he conducted himself throughout the whole job. My husband can't stop looking at the roof as we drive in and saying, ït looks so much better.

This review is for W Libby & Son, Geelong VIC

I needed a large picnic blanket stitched onto heavy plastic backing, which I could not do. The owner was super helpful even though the job was not flag or tent related. He did the job well & charged me little. Lovely, lovely man.
