David Penman, 54, sent emails to the woman and left a vile message on her answering machine in May 2021 after she was less than glowing about The Clifftop in Hepburn, central Victoria.
A guest left a review on a travel website saying the luxury Airbnb property in Hepburn was “Just OK’, then received a string of threatening messages from the owner.
The guest gave the luxury Hepburn guesthouse two stars, and told a travel website it was “just okay”. It is alleged that prompted a foul-mouthed response in which she was told she would “burn in hell” for her review.
