About this property

Beautiful rural retreat

A country retreat with enough charm to make anyone want to stay forever. The ultimate in privacy and seclusion, this is the perfect property for those much-needed holidays to just disappear from the modern world. Located just 15kms Northwest of Portland and 20kms Northeast of Cape Bridgewater, Foleys Run gives you the best of three worlds - enjoy the country cottage in private farm surrounds, a trip into town for shopping or dinner on the waterfront, or head out to Bridgewater Beach to soak up the sun and surf.

The cottage has been renovated and includes all the modern conveniences of home, including a newly installed reverse cycle air conditioner in the dining room. The lounge has a wood heater to sit by and watch a DVD on those cold afternoons, or in the summer enjoy a BBQ on the deck while taking in the serenity of the peaceful surrounds. Three bedrooms offer two queen beds and two singles with an additional sofa bed in the family room if required. Featuring a bathroom with walk in shower and claw foot bath, there is nowhere else to be while holidaying in the country.

Guest review -

"This lovely cottage is set in a picturesque, peaceful rural setting. Loved sitting on the verandah looking out over pastures listening to the sounds of sheep, cows and chooks! If you’re wanting peace and serenity, this is where to escape to. The cosy wood fire in the little lounge room was the perfect ending every night."

Roll isn't!
Property was clean, functional and perfect location for our daily fishing in Portland and trips to cape Bridgewater for swimming at the beach. Unlike a lot of other properties, this one includes small touches like clothes airers that make staying for a longer period all the more easy. Highly recommend!

Not available after all.
The property was listed as available - I made a booking - then 2 days later the owners had decided to stay and I had to find somewhere else. The agent was very helpful.

Beautiful farm cottage located just out of Portland
Beautiful farm cottage, we loved our stay and being able to enjoy the countryside. Well located in relation to Portland and Cape Bridgewater, we also used it as a base to visit Budj Bim National Park. The cottage was very homely and clean, some bugs but to be expected. The fireplace was welcomed when it cooled down at night. Next time we come Portland way would definitely stay again.

Lovely quiet spot among farms
Three of us had four nights at Foley's Run and loved our stay there. The house is capacious and well stocked with skylights and verandas all around. It has all the mod cons you will need and the beds were comfortable. Google Maps may misdirect you but we found it eventually. A great spot for exploring Portland and the nearby coast, or for chilling in the yard with a book and glass of wine. Recommended.

Country Peace
Lovely cottage located a little bit from town and even though close to the road it was quiet inside. Sheep and cattle nearby and a short walk down the road spotting koalas was fun. Lovely that pets are accepted and they had a ball as well.

Very clean and cosy home
The Propert is great for families and a let. We loved the fire place and updated bathroom. The hot water did run out which is not for a family of six.

Lovely 3 bedroom cottage/house in a very quiet peace of paradise. Very clean & comfortable. Nice linens & comfy beds. Lots of extras - the simple things that usually get missed. Great for kids - well catered for with heaps of space for them to run around & explore. Highly recommend!!!
