About this property

Portobello a unique a peaceful retreat in Double Cove (boat access only)

Portobello is nestled in amongst the native bush with views to die for. An easy 30 meter walk to the bach results in unimpeded views down the bay. The refurbished bach is well appointed with an oven, cook top and dishwasher. There are two bedrooms, the first with a Queen size bed and the second with room has two singles.

The deck which is accessed off the lounge is a great spot to spend those sunny afternoons and balmy evenings. Relax on the loungers whilst waiting on the BBQer to do his/her thing.

An early morning kayak down the bay to feed the fish (Double Cove is a fish reserve) may take your fancy. Alternatively you may prefer to take a dip off the dock or just take in the variety of abundant marine life including the resident Sting Rays.

Double Coves location offers easy access back into Picton for supplies or a trip round the corner to Lochmara Lodge for lunch.

If you dont own your own boat then its not a problem, Picton based water taxis can drop you to our dock.
Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.
