Coastline Cottage Fish Creek-Amazing coastal views and close to Wilson’s Prom

Welcome to Coastline Cottage Fish Creek! With Breathtaking views across all of Wilson’s Promontory, the vista from the house also takes in the ocean, islands and Corner and Shallow Inlets. Gaze across rolling hills towards the Yanakie isthmus and you will see networks of South Gippsland’s fine farms with cows and sheep grazing just beyond the property’s fenceline. Delight in watching amazing sunsets and sunrises (and spectacular moon rises over the water of Corner Inlet if the timing of your stay is right!), watch the weather roll in across the ocean and witness the most incredible stars in the night sky!

We pride ourselves on providing you with a wonderful place to stay, in a setting that is both rustic and modern, with the attention to detail which will ensure you have a comfortable and easy stay!

The house is a gorgeous mud brick cottage with large exposed timber beams, polished concrete floors in the main living areas and carpet in the bedrooms. Bedroom number one has a queen size bed and access to the verandah. Bedroom two is a large room with two King single beds and its own living area. The sofa in this living area folds out to a quality double bed, providing sleeping for 1-2 more guests if required. Both bedrooms have a spacious feel, built in robes, quality 100% cotton bedlinen, doonas, pillow and electric blankets.

The kitchen is fully equipped with quality pots and pans, ample crockery, cutlery and glassware, along with a great selection of serving bowls and platters. A gas cooktop, electric oven and microwave are supplied, along with dishwasher, kettle, toaster, coffee plunger and stove-top espresso maker. There is even a blender and food processor if you’re feeling the need to cook up a storm, or, simply throw a snag on the BBQ on the verandah for ease!

Our lounge suite may be the most comfortable one you have ever sat in and will allow you to sit back and watch one of our well-selected DVD’s, listen to the varied assortment of CD’s, read one of our many books or just sit and listen to the abundant bird-life which come to enjoy the native garden! Enjoy the cool, ambient temperature of the house during the warmer months or snuggle up in front in the fire place in colder times-the house is gorgeous at any time of year.

The bathroom and laundry are well equipped and maintained, with shower over a full size bath, front loader washing machine, with shampoo, conditioner, body and hand washes, toilet paper, laundry detergent, air freshener all provided.

There is a front and back verandah with table and chairs allowing you to dine outside, gas BBQ, and garden seating for a quiet cup of tea looking out across the spectacular view.

The house is situated on our beautiful 5 acre property, completely private from the main house, with your own driveway entrance. You are free to wander out on to the hill, check out our chooks and stroll down the quiet dead-end road through a bush setting.
