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 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!

Lovely short break

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 Sanctuary

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!

What a hidden gem!

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

A hidden gem

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.
