Fantastic location close to everything. Our dogs enjoyed the trip as much as we did. We loved that we could hear the ocean during the night (with the window slightly open). Thanks to Jane for an easy and pleasant stay.

Great little house for a weekend break
We had a lovely weekend at the cottage which was small but very comfortable. Our dog loved the grassy, secure garden and the location is a short walk to town or beach.

Beautiful home right near the beach
You can hear the noise of the waves as it’s one house back from the ocean. The locals are friendly and the house has anything you need. The yard was nice for my dog and the area was quiet.

About the host

Hosted by Jane Buckingham

Host profile image
I live in Apollo Bay with my husband and children. We live, work and go to school in our town and greatly support and get involved in our local community.

Why they chose this property

Apollo Bay is a wonderful place to live and to visit and we are happy to own a cottage that we can use as holiday accommodation. It's location appealed to us as it is very central in the township.

In addition to all the other reasons to stay, as the host I can assure you that I clean the cottage to a high standard.
All sheets and towels are laundered by a professional laundry service so are washed at high temperatures.
Duvet covers and tea towels are home laundered separately at high temperatures.

What makes this property unique

The cottage is central to Apollo Bay with just 2 minutes to the shops and beach. Guests can leave their car at the cottage and explore the township and the beach on foot.
Dogs are welcome to stay with prior notification and the secure yard is ideal for them.
