Cute cottage close to the beach

This little cottage is gorgeous and so close to the beach and a short walk to the main street with shops and restaurants. It is probably best suited to couples or adults who want to enjoy a short stay rather than families on an extended stay. Its gorgeous and has everything you need, and my kids loved running around in the yard.

My dog and I had a delightful stay in peaceful Portarlington. The large yard was a real joy for Daisy, my dog. The bath and open fireplace were for me to enjoy!

Seaside Escape

The property is quiet and quaint. Has all the amenities you need for a 2 bedder. The fireplace was perfect for a winter getaway. Enclosed yard for the dog, and a 10minute stroll into town. The proximity to the beach is fantastic. Really enjoyed our stay.

Second time around

We stayed at this property exactly 12 months ago. Time has not been positive for Sunset Cottage. It is now looking tired and needs some work. Cutlery was very poor, coffee machine was broken, kitchen cupboards needed repair and the grounds are a comparative dust bowl. A bit sad really it it is in a good location

Nice and Quaint

Nice place to stay in terms of coziness. Location is reasonably quiet despite being amongst other houses, but not really central to shops, good views or walks. Nice tapware in kitchen and bathroom. Windows and back door flyscreen could do with a clean. The house rules could be phrased more positively.

Lovely pet friendly cottage close to beach

A immaculately clean two bedroom cottage in a quiet location, just a short walk to the esplanade and the beach. A ten minute walk to town or a quick two minute drive. A great spot to relax on the veranda while our two dogs explored the fully fenced grassed yard who they loved! The cottage is a gem and outstanding value for money. It has everything you need for a short break.

Very cute little cottage

We had a lovely stay during the school holidays. Portarlington was very quiet, and we were only a few minutes walk from the water. The house was cosy, and was just the right size for two of us and the dog. We enjoyed sitting on the balcony, reading and spending time relaxing. The yard was perfect for our old dog who was able to wander around the garden and couldn't get out. We were a little cold at night, and would have liked some more blankets or warmer doonas available.

June Long weekend

The property was very quaint, well decorated and lots of attention to detail- nice teabags , lots of cutlery, lovely hand wash and soaps, fire wood cut ready to use etc. Would have liked some extra blankets for the bed as the first night we were very cold - needed to keep a heater on. Great that you can bring pets too. Lots of space. We had a great time

Sweet Pad

This is a great house, really comfy, near the beach, walking distance from town centre and very dog friendly (unless you have a jumper, the fence is pretty low). Highly recommend a stay here.

Great short getaway

Great little seaside cottage in a lovely location. We had a lovely short trip to visit family nearby. Cozy little 2-bedroom house with everything included! Lovely little touches, comfy warm beds, didn't end up bringing our fur baby but a great enclosed yard for anyone wishing to bring yours along. My only suggestion would be regarding the bath/shower - could perhaps require a secure rail to hold onto as quite difficult to get in and out of, especially for someone older. However thank you for allowing us to stay in your house :)

A lovely cottage in Portarlington

This cottage was cosy and comfortable with every amenity required for a week long stay. It is close to the beach and the township. We enjoyed a walk with our dog into Portarlington every day along the walking track next to the beach. We will return.

Lovely little cottage , great location.

We really enjoyed our stay at this cosy little cottage, that was nice and close to go for morning walks to the beach. Great fire place , but did have to buy our own wood to get us through. The bathroom needs some sort of rail in the shower over the bath as hubby slipped, so be careful. Overall we enjoyed our stay .
