Perfect for a winter stay

We loved staying at Moyne Cottage - the fireplace is fabulous and kept us cosy. We loved the view of the river and the fact that the cottage is an easy walk into town and the beach.

Lovely place and was more than comfortable . Only suggestion would be a water filter tap as the water in Port Fairy can taste a little off.

Loved our stay at Moyne Cottage! So relaxing to hunker down for a few days in front of the open fire, and enjoy the waterfront views. A very comfortable rustic home with loads of character. Would highly recommend,

A great holiday

I love staying at this cottage with my family. The first time we visited Moyne Cottage was 25 years ago. The house has “soul” and it’s wonderful sitting in the front living room looking at the river. A great location and close to restaurants and cafes.
