About this property

GALWAY COTTAGE

Located in the heart of Queenscliff this spotless dog friendly home is a 2 minute walk to the local cafe, 3 minutes to the Swan Bay walking and bike tracks into Point Lonsdale, and 5 minutes to the beach and the Hesse St town centre. The front of the home is a classic 19th century cottage that has been renovated and extended, resulting in a lovely, comfy light filled home. The house boasts all the modern amenities including central hydronic heating throughout, a wood fire heater (BYO wood) and R/C air-conditioner.

The second bathroom includes a deep bath, shower, vanity and heated towel rails with a separate toilet. The accommodation would be suitable for two smaller families or two couples to share.
The Cottage has two living areas, the front living area in the original part of the house includes a comfy window seat that provides a great spot to read a book or just watch the world go by, a new wood burner and a breakfast table leading into the lovely open galley kitchen.

The outside deck area offers a great spot for BBQs with an outdoor dining suite plus a fire pit for the cooler evenings. Beyond the decking is a great grassed area full of fruit trees you may help yourselves to when in season. Up the rear of the property is the children's cubby house and clothesline. The house is perfect for you to bring your fur baby as its fencing is secure and the garden has plenty of room for them to play and explore.

Galway Cottage is a perfect place to stay. Spacious, beautifully presented, extremely well equipped kitchen and laundry and thoughtful extras such as the games and books. Great location to walk to shops and beach and the General Store Cafe only a few minutes walk away is excellent. We would highly recommend Galway Cottage and Queenscliff and Coastal Holiday Bookings.

Galway Cottage is a wonderful property located close to our favourite Queenscliff beach and within easy walking distance to the main street. There are different areas to relax and plenty of space to spread out. The provision of plenty of firewood, books, games and toiletries in the bathrooms were most appreciated.
