Description

Phillip Islands oldest cottage restored to its original charm. For a very special experience this is indeed a beautiful home in a picturesque setting with tranquil views over beautiful Swan Bay. Vaulted ceilings, chandeliers and old world charm blend together with modern day comforts. The house boasts four bedrooms, two bathrooms, two living areas, large country kitchen and dining with a wood stove for home style cooking and for the less adventurous, microwave, electric hotplate and BBQ.

The two delightful double bedrooms with comfortable period furnishings and main bathroom form a parents retreat from the rest of the house. Two additional bedrooms have single beds. Walk through the French doors of your bedroom to the expansive deck and enjoy the breathtaking views across the bay or gaze over the 100 year old orchard. There are two bathrooms, one with a separate shower and enormous claw-foot bath to soak in, the other a shower over bath.

Experience the charm of historic Rhyll with only a 5 minute drive to the Islands main town, Cowes. In the cool of the evenings relax in front of the open fire and take in the ambience of beautiful Swan Bay. Perfect for couples, families or groups.

Recommendations

"My friends and I must have picked one of the coldest weekends but that didn't stop us from enjoying the cosy comfort of the cottage, especially when we got the open fire blazing on the Saturday evening. Close by to the beach and local restaurants and yet ever so peaceful - it was the perfect getaway for the girls to relax over a few drinks and laughs. We are already considering coming back in the warmer months to take full advantage of the sitting on the balcony and taking in the views. Captain Locks is a lovely place full of charm and character - original features combined with modern conveniences and I would have no hesitation in recommending it for a romantic getaway or family holiday destination. "

"Thankyou thankyou for a beautiful weekend away in your gorgeous home away from home. I spent considerable time online seeking the ideal getaway, somewhere that felt like you had just slipped into a well loved home, complete with all the charm & without the typical dowdy holiday home furnishings....and that's when I found Captain Lock's Cottage...with her elegant chandaliers, trusty ol' combustion stove that whips up a feast fit for a king, neat neutral "beachy" furnishings, gorgeous old floorboards & pretty garden setting. We loved your cottage the instant we set eyes on it and walking through the front door we found just what we had anticipated. The perfect blend of character, romance & comfort. Thankyou for your flexibility, your promptness in answering any questions we had & willingness to accommodate our needs...& thankyou so much for sharing your precious little piece of history with us. We feel very honoured & will happily make Captain Lock's Cottage somewhere to return as often as possible."

"What a wonderful 'get away' retreat. Ambience , easy walking distance down to the foreshore and everything you could possibly need to relax and unwind. Perfect - we'll be back"
Caroline, October 2008
"Thank you so much for allowing us to share your little slice of heaven. 6 good friends - lots of wine and laughs. We enjoyed the simplicity of the home and the historical value of the property. It is a charming home, one that we hope to revisit as a group anually."
Debbie, September 2008
"What a great find this house is! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to come back. Every thing worked as it should and the little notes made it feel like home, not just a house you rent for a few days. Loved it, thanks!"

"Six friends, five star cooking, several splashes of vino, fireside banter, a few good rounds of cards, late-night knitting and a lot of long laughter... a delicious weekend away at a truly magical spot. With chandeliers in the kitchen, 'cottage' is surely an understatement!"

"Fantastic views, lovely cosy cottage, a great experience all round"
Michelle, August 2008
"A lovely cosy warm winter retreat and I imagine it is great in summer too."
Melanie, July 2008
"We spent 3 nights here over our 14 day trip around Victoria. It was the most special and memorable of our accommodation of anywhere that we stayed (and we stayed in lovely places). Everything about the cottage is special. The atmosphere is evident from the moment you walk through the front door. It was incredibly relaxing but also very special with simple decor and the lovely touch of chandeliers in everyroom. Everything you could want or need is there for you. We will definately return again but next time for a week. We cannot recommend Captain Locks Cottage highly enough. (ps. our 3 'furkids' loved it too)."
Kate, June 2008
"Lovely place to stay, very relaxing and peaceful. Will difinitely stay again"
