Welcome to the Morrison Stables, a piece of Geelong’s history. &nbsp;
 
&nbsp;Built in 1855, the main residence was originally a pub and is heritage listed (now occupied by our family). The stables have been converted into a cosy 2 bedroom guesthouse including wifi, smart tv, split system heating/cooling, a Bluetooth speaker and secure off street parking. &nbsp;The street is incredibly quiet, a pleasant surprise considering the close (walking distance) proximity to Geelong’s CBD, Waterfront and GMHBA stadium. &nbsp;
 
&nbsp;The secure off street parking area is the only shared space, with private access directly into the guesthouse- it is completely separate to the main residence. &nbsp;
 
 
&nbsp;Exposed brick with cathedral ceilings, the stables have retained much of their heritage character and charm. &nbsp;The small kitchenette includes a basic cooktop, bar fridge, kettle, toaster and microwave, however guests are encouraged to take advantage of the many nearby restaurants, cafes and delivery options. &nbsp;&nbsp;
 
&nbsp;Both bedrooms feature queen beds fitted with quality stonewashed linen, cotton towels and wardrobes with plenty of storage for a comfortable stay. If 1-2 guests sharing a bed are booked, 1 bed will be made up for the stay. &nbsp;
 
&nbsp;Outdoor seating, a comfy couch, smart TV with access to streaming services, a bluetooth speaker and novels on hand ensure you can unwind inside the stables; however we're guessing with so much on offer close by, you probably wont spend much time sitting around. &nbsp;
 
 
&nbsp;A wonderful central location, a walk in any direction will land you somewhere of interest. Excellent cafes and a pub within 200 meters, or a slightly longer walk to: &nbsp;
 
-South Geelong Train Staton (400m)&nbsp;
-Barwon Health University Hospital (600m)&nbsp;
-St John of God Hospital (600m) -GMHBA stadium (650m)&nbsp;
-Westfield Geelong (950m) -Geelong Heritage Centre (1km)&nbsp;
-Geelong Arts Centre/GPAC (1km)&nbsp;
-Waterfront precinct/Eastern Beach (1.2km)&nbsp;
-Deakin University (1.3km)&nbsp;
-Geelong Train Station (1.4km)&nbsp;
-Botanical Gardens (1.5km) &nbsp;
 
There’s also many shops, cafes, bars and restaurants on offer in the Geelong CBD, or take a 20-30 minute drive to the Bellarine Peninsula or Surf coast. &nbsp;
 
 
&nbsp;An electric gate leads into a large shared space on the property including an undercover carport, a locked garden shed (not accessed by guests), a vegetable garden (guests are welcome to help themselves to anything growing), a closed gate leading into the private residence (not accessed by guests), and the stables themselves. &nbsp;A small table and chairs sit in front of the stables for use by guests, and the entrance into the apartment is in the same area. You may see us arriving or leaving if we have parked in the shared space, however the rest of the apartment has been set up to ensure both yours and our privacy. &nbsp;
&nbsp;
While the apartment is completely separate and we respect your privacy, we live on site and are able to assist with anything that might pop up. &nbsp;We want your stay to be as comfortable as possible and encourage an SMS for anything required. We're also happy to help with any recommendations/local knowledge. &nbsp;&nbsp;
&nbsp;
 
The Geelong CBD is within walking distance, or if you drive there is almost always free or cheap parking options everywhere around the city and surrounds. &nbsp;If leaving the car behind: &nbsp;
 
-The South Geelong train station is 450m down the hill, or the Geelong Station is 1.3km (through the CBD)
-Uber rides are readily available, and being in close proximity to the city are well priced. &nbsp;
-The local taxi rank in the CBD is near the entrance to Myer Westfield on Malop St, and in the evenings on Moorabool St (close to the corner of Malop St), or booked via phone on 131 008.

The Morrison Stables- Walking distance to the Geelong CBD

We were absolutely blown away by the accommodation and Ash's hospitality. The AirBnb is in a fantastic location, Ash's communication is exceptional, and the little details were certainly much appreciated. We will be recommending this Airbnb to our friends and family!

Fantastic Location

We stayed for almost two weeks at "The Stables" - what an extraordinary accommodation. Very clean and comfortable. The communication with Ash and her service was remarkable. Highly recommended - even for long-term stays.

Highly Recommend

I have never met hosts like these guys .Absolutely went beyond the call of duty for our son whos wife had just had a baby .They even wrote a congratulatory card and gave them chocolates as a giftBless them

Fantastic in all ways

There were 4 adults at the property and it was spacious and comfortable with a lovely rustic garden.

Needed to stay longer to be able to explore the area, not enough time.
