A great holiday
I love staying at this cottage with my family. The first time we visited Moyne Cottage was 25 years ago. The house has “soul” and it’s wonderful sitting in the front living room looking at the river. A great location and close to restaurants and cafes.

The property comprises everything you need to enjoy a pleasant stay. A short walk to the main streets and beach. It’s not top of the range but is clean and comfortable for the price.

Old holiday house; location brilliant
It appears to be an old holiday house with very basic facilities. Being on the river with a beautiful beach almost over the back fence is a brilliant location. The shops are reachable by foot.

Beautiful old school beachhouse
Perfect location, great access to town and beach. Old school charm with a great atmosphere and feel that we enjoyed. Chilled and laid back. Would have been great to have a table and chairs out in the back garden but we managed 👍. Really enjoyed our 2 night visit and look forward to booking again. Thank you for sharing this original beachhouse.

Moyne cottage
We loved the accomodation from the time we arrived. We had come to Port Fairy, primarily to take part in the marathon events. The cottage was close to the town centre, marathon and the beach. The house fitted our needs perfectly, just a pity we couldnt stay longer but we will be back.

Good value for money with riverside location
This older style property features comfortable sleeping for 8, very deep bath with shower over in main bathroom. There are 2 living areas, the front room being particularly cosy during out winter stay, with huge window views over the river. Large kitchen with big family sized table. It is furnished comfortably and a bit like visiting the grandparents. This is not luxury, it is cosy, warm and homely and the price range suits this house. The beds are so comfy and with electric blankets for a very peaceful sleep. I will definitely be re-booking Moyne Cottage on my next trip to Port Fairy.

Marvellous Moyne Cottage
This is obviously an old property, but it is full of character. The rooms are spacious & comfortable, the back yard is lovely, but the best thing about this place is the fantastic location & the everchanging view over the Moyne River. I would definitely return for another stay.
