Carolyn spent the weekend in the Seaside cottage. She left it exceptionally clean and tidy, just as she found it. She will be most welcome to return again.
Seaside Cottage is just beautiful. So cosy and warm, loads of wood for the fire. Really comfortable beds and lounge. Gorgeous gardens full of flowers. Decor and appliances modern yet fitting to set off this delightful cottage. The foreshore area is stunning. Marg, the host, is great to work with.
The property, location, amenities and communication with the host, Marg, were all excellent. We will definitely look to stay again in future. 5 stars.

I am so happy to hear the cottage was clean and had everything you required. It makes me happy to have satisfied guests.
The cottage was a delightful, quaint, homely premises rich with character, warmth and charm. My children loved the “vintage” touches as they put it! We didn’t use the car the entire weekend as the cottage was so close to the water, walking tracks, the Main Street and everywhere we wanted to go.Watching the kids try and catch crabs at low tide was a highlight! I loved sitting on the front veranda with a book and a glass of wine in the sunshine- watching the water. Also watching a movie with the fireplace going was divine.Pure bliss.Highly recommend.Marg was an exceptional host.I’ll definitely be back!

Hi Renee
Thank you for your detailed review of the seaside cottage. I am pleased you appreciate the attention to detail I have taken to make my guests comfortable. You will be most welcome to return.
Marg
Lovely historic cottage. Comfortable with everything you need. While estuary is tidal still good for swimming and using the provided kayaks when the tide is higher. You can park your car and not need it again until you leave. If you have animal loving kids the Moonlit Sanctuary is worth a look, we did this the day we left.

Leanne, it is so good to hear you enjoyed your stay in the seaside cottage and you had everything you needed during your stay. The kayaks are a bit if fun in the the safety of the quiet waters across the road. I’m so glad you went to the moonlit sanctuary as it is so close, and so educational for your children. The koala patting us very popular.
Kind regards Marg.
Seaside Cottage was the perfect home base for our first trip to Australia. It’s ideally situated for exploring Melbourne, Mornington Peninsula, Phillip Island, other coastal areas and the Dandenong Range. The house itself was lovely, immaculate and comfortable, with every amenity. Marg went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Only wish we could’ve stayed longer! Thank you!

It was great to hear that the cottage was everything you required. It makes me happy that my guests are comfortable and keen to return.
Beautifully presented property with so many comforting, homely extras! It doesn’t hurt that the location is nothing short of feeling like you are miles away from the rat race, yet close enough to it to commute. Thanks Marg for being a wonderful and accommodating host, will definitely rebook next time we head to Melbourne! Thankyou

Only a short trip from Melbourne, this property provides guests with every comfort to enjoy a relaxing stay in a very pretty part of Western Port. Thoughtful touches are evident throughout the property. The cottage gardens complement the old world charm. The property is very well maintained and spotlessly clean. Secure off-street parking make access easy.
Such a beautiful property for a cozy weekend away. We loved it, very clean and the fire going on arrival made for a lovely touch. Thanks for having us.
Me and my partner had such a lovely time, the cottage is spotless and has everything you need. Its such a fab location.
We enjoyed ever minute and would highly recommend.
Really cant wait to head back soon, Marg is a wonderful host.
Couldn't find a better place to stay.
Marg is welcoming and has put much time and effort into this beautiful gem.
Spotlessly clean and with everything you could possibly need and more.
Great location on the beach.
