Attention to Detail

The cottage location is spot on for walking trips to the shops, local cafes and the wharf. The cottage itself has been beautifully restored with many original features to add to its charms. The attention to detail is what makes it stand out though, with lots of special touches to make your visit comfortable.

Absolute gem, so warm and inviting and comfortable, perfect.

The beds were warm and comfortable. The kitchen, bathroom and lounge were comfy, clean, and the owners left us a little welcome gift which was so thoughtful. They communicated well with us and we thought the property and our whole experience was perfect. So thankful to have stayed there, would definitely book again.

Beautiful Goolwa house

We enjoyed staying at the Mariner's Cottage. The house has lots of old character, but has been nicely renovated and styled beautifully. We were very comfortable here and enjoyed the spacious backyard, boogie boards, table tennis, outdoor shower and comfy beds. It's on a nice quiet street, while only a quick walk to the cafes and restaurants of Goolwa, and a short drive to the beach.

Super Snug historic cottage in perfect location

We had such a lovely long weekend at Mariner's Cottage. Our kids loved the ping pong table and yard (so did our little doggy). My husband and I loved the proximity to the cafes and Sunday Markets and it was really snug inside. Thank you for all the kitchen extras and just a really happy family stay. Katie

Heritage Cottage

We loved our stay in Mariner's Cottage. Great location, well equipped kitchen and great secure backyard area. Table tennis table is a nice addition but just needs a bit of TLC. Thanks for sharing your cottage with us.

Comfortable stay in a gorgeous cottage

Mariner's cottage is comfy and well appointed. It's walking distance to the Sunday Goolwa markets and the main street for cafes and dinner. Our 7 year old really appreciated all the toys in the third bedroom. The coffee machine came in handy and the air fryer would be great for a longer visit. We'd happily come back.
