short stay at the lovely Williamstone Cottage
Had a lovely break at charming Williamstone cottage - our only regret was not booking the house for more than 3 days - not long enough to properly relax and actually read the books we had taken with us! The cottage has everything you need for a holiday - very comfortable beds, well-equipped kitchen and beautiful decor. Highly recommend.

Fabulous Williamstone Cottage
We had a lovely long weekend at Williamstone Cottage, days reading in the sun in the garden and nights in front of the fire. Very much appreciated the fully fenced back garden which allowed everyone to relax not worrying about a dog getting out! A beautiful home for a very much needed relaxing weekend away.

Beautiful cottage with a great feeling of love. Great attention to detail with plenty of space to enjoy. Sitting on the front verandah with a drink and nibbles, under shady trees, taking in the water feature and bird life in the evenings was a great way to unwind. Thank you for sharing your holiday home with us.

About the host

Hosted by Jo Rogers

Host profile image
We are a family who love to travel, are avid snow skiers and surfers and have wonderful adventures together. We call Adelaide home. We are happy to share our beautiful old circa 1920's cottage in the seaside township of Robe on the Limestone Coast, South Australia with you. We have extended family who we love to share the cottage with.

Why they chose this property

We hope you enjoy staying in one of the original limestone cottages in Robe. We love the old trees which are over 80 years old, the generous fully enclosed lawned back garden and pretty cottage front garden. This house is a gorgeous slice of Robe history and we feel fortunate to be the current custodians. We are always gardening and planting new plants. We have an additional front block which we are slowly re-purposing and adding shrubs.

What makes this property unique

Our favourite walk starts in the corner of Long Beach, follows the one way road path to the The Outlet, across the foot bridge and then meanders all the way to town. We stop in town for a coffee and chat and then the return walk before lunch.
In the evenings, we drive to Lipson Park next to the Robe Marina. We follow the Arthur Fennell Way boardwalk that edges the marina then cut across to the Robe Jetty. From here, follow the meandering path to the Obelisk and then onwards along the path toward Doorway Rock and watch the waves coming in to the limestone headland. Cut back through the streets to the complete the loop. Gorgeous.
