I'll Be Back!!!!

I loved my stay at Pelicans. There is a creative, coastal theme to the cottage making it absolutely fascinating and welcoming. Watching the pilot boats coming and going while curled up in the bay window, reading and writing snuggled under a blanket on the best front porch ever were definite highlights. I found the bed particularly comfortable and quite therapeutic. Pelicans is strolling distance to pretty much everything in delightful Queenscliffe and all in all was the perfect stay. Thankyou Alison for being such a considerate host.
