About this property
Portarlington Beach House (great for families)
Great family beach house for multiple families or a group of friends to entertain and relax!
Newly renovated, the kitchen kiosk window opens to the large covered deck with a large BBQ unit (and TV on wall if requested).
Fully fenced (secure for dogs), with ample secure parking for multiple cars (and boat).
The house is set up for kids upon request with a 2 x portacots, 2 x high chairs. Upon request we can also set up a cot mattress bed on the floor of any of the rooms for smaller kids.
There’s also a beautiful refurbished vintage caravan (4 berth) on site that you can add on to your booking to allow greater capacity (chat with us to discuss additional fee per night). The Caravan can be configured as a double bed plus dining area, or as two double beds.
We’re available 24/7 via phone should you have any questions, and our neighbour who manages the Beach House is on hand if you need anything in person!
The House
Four bedroom, two bathroom house. One bedroom includes two queen beds.
A large outdoor deck off the kitchen (partially covered to accomodate both the sun and shade lovers!) provides lots of space for the kids to hang out in warm weather as well as rain.
Plenty of seating for family/group lounging and meals.
Brand new central heating and cooling system, as well as laundry with brand new washing machine and dryer available for use.
Linen and bath towels included in stay. Please bring your own beach towels.
The Neighbourhood
The Portarlington Beach house is in a fantastic location - 10mins walk to town and the beach in one direction, and 10min walk in the other direction to the Portarlington Golf Club. It’s also only a 10min drive to gorgeous vineyards including Jack Rabbit, Terindah Estate, Bennett’s on Bellarine, and Bellarine Estate.
Portarlington itself has beautiful sheltered north facing bay beaches, and is perfect for safe swimming, snorkelling and fishing. There are great cycling and walking tracks around the beach-front, and through the local rail trail. There’s a beautiful main pier in town, and the area is well known for fresh mussels and seafood. There are cafes and restaurants locally, as well as supermarkets, bakery and the Grand Hotel.
Getting Around
If driving, there’s space to park multiple cars (and a boat). The house is fully fenced, and we have two bikes which you’re welcome to use!
An excellent boat service (1hr 10mins travel time) goes multiple times a day to and from Melbourne (departing Docklands behind Southern Cross Station/Marvel Stadium) to the Portarlington Pier (www.portphillipferries.com.au/).
Alternatively from Melbourne take the V Line train to Geelong, and jump on a bus that drops you at the end of our street!
