Quiet and relaxing

A lovely and comfortable place with a garden space our dogs loved. Close to everything with a couple of good places to eat, many good walks and seemingly a fisherman's paradise.

Comfortable & convenient

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sandpiper Cottage, it is so comfortable and has everything we needed for our 3 week stay. It's just a short walk into the main town/waterfront and to walking tracks. The area experienced a power blackout and we were grateful to receive Sera's notification and text explaining where to find torches and candles etc. Planning to be back next year!

Would have been happy to stay

Wonderful place in a great little town. Encourages you to relax and enjoy both the house and region. Host was great with communication and the house was well presented and equipped. Fantastic for dogs as can be easily secured. Got great photos of Aurora Australis as a bonus!

About the host

Hosted by Sera Blair

Host profile image
Sandpiper Cottage is my new coastal escape where I can enjoy some time by myself or with family and friends. When I am there I feel calmer and enjoy working on the house and in the garden.

Why they chose this property

Port Albert is a wonderful community and a great place to kayak in Nooramunga Marine National Park. Morning walks along the coast path into town for a coffee are delightful all year round.
