About this property

Charming Heritage cottage, pet-friendly, walk to beach and coastal attractions

Guests can unwind in a charming heritage cottage just moments from the beach, where every space is designed for comfort and relaxation. Mornings often begin with coffee on the front porch, listening to the birds and feeling the coastal breeze drift through the garden. Inside, the cosy living area offers a welcoming place to settle in with board games or relax by the fireplace after a day of exploring.

The cottage is perfectly positioned for those who love the outdoors. Scenic walking trails and the stunning Thunder Point coastal lookout are close by, offering dramatic views and peaceful paths. The beach, promenade, and local cafés are all within easy reach, making it simple to enjoy Warrnambool’s relaxed coastal lifestyle. Tennis courts are also nearby for guests who enjoy a casual hit.

Back at the cottage, the fully fenced courtyard and small grassed area provide a safe, easy space for pets to enjoy. Evenings can be spent cooking on the BBQ, sharing meals outdoors, or simply unwinding in the quiet garden. With its blend of heritage charm, modern comforts, and a location close to nature and local attractions, the cottage offers a peaceful coastal escape for couples, families, friends, and their pets.

This house is a cosy cottage with charm and character. It was very clean on arrival and well appointed for a comfortable stay. The location may not be suitable for every one as its driving distance from the main centre of town. The location however suited us as we prefer to be in the more quieter areas. Also there is some good walks nearby suitable for dogs.

We had a wonderful stay at the cottage. Monica is really kind to put the gas log stove to make sure it is warm when we arrived there. Close to the beautiful lookout of the coast line and short drive to the shops. Highly recommended. Thanks!

We had the most wonderful 3-night stay in Warrnambool. Our host truly thought of everything and made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived. The cottage was warm and inviting, beautifully decorated with charming cottage touches, and immaculately presented.The fully stocked kitchen had everything we could possibly need, making our stay effortless. The secure courtyard and generous backyard were perfect for our dogs, who were thrilled to find toys waiting for them. Our toddler was equally delighted with the thoughtful selection of kids’ toys.One of our favourite features was the stunning clawfoot bathtub – the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring. Every detail had been carefully considered, creating a comfortable, relaxing, and memorable stay for the whole family.Thank you for your hospitality. We absolutely loved our time here and would happily stay again. Highly recommended!

Hosted by Monica

Host profile image
I’m a local host who loves the coastal lifestyle and enjoys sharing this peaceful part of Warrnambool with visitors. I take pride in creating a welcoming, comfortable space where guests can relax, explore the area, and feel at home.

Why they chose this property

I chose this area for its peaceful coastal lifestyle and the natural beauty that surrounds it. Warrnambool offers stunning walking trails, the dramatic views of Thunder Point, and easy access to the beach and promenade. I love the mix of nature, friendly cafés, and nearby tennis courts, all within a relaxed seaside community. It’s a place where you can slow down, explore, and enjoy the best of the coast.”

What makes this property unique

This heritage cottage has a unique charm that sets it apart from modern stays. Its cosy rooms, spacious old‑style kitchen, and original features give it a warm, lived‑in character. Like many older cottages, it has a few quirks, but that’s part of what makes it special — a place with history, personality, and a relaxed coastal feel. Guests love the blend of comfort, character, and the cottage’s close proximity to walking trails, Thunder Point, the beach, cafés, tennis courts, and the promenade.
