About this property

Doongarra in the heart of town

Welcome to Doongarra, a charming one-bedroom cottage in the heart of Queenscliff—perfect for a relaxed getaway for one or two guests.

Tucked just behind the historic Hesse Street shops, the cottage is ideally positioned within easy walking distance of cafés, restaurants, galleries, and local attractions, meaning you can park your car and explore everything on foot.

Inside, you’ll find a bright and welcoming open-plan living space with comfortable seating, TV, DVD player, polished timber floors, and reverse-cycle air conditioning for year-round comfort.

The fully equipped kitchen includes a cooktop, oven, microwave, dishwasher, and island bench seating, making it easy to enjoy meals at home, or you can wander just minutes to nearby dining and the local brewhouse.

The bedroom features a queen bed, wardrobe, ceiling fan, and quality linen and towels, while the ensuite bathroom includes a walk-in shower, vanity, and toilet.

Set within a peaceful communal garden, Doongarra also offers private off-street parking and easy access from Learmonth Street, with pedestrian entry from Hesse Street.

Ideally located close to the Blues Train, Q Train, waterfront, ferry, and golf course, this cosy retreat is a perfect base for enjoying everything Queenscliff has to offer.

The location in the middle of town and behind the shops couldn't be better. It was very central but there was no traffic noise. A comfortable, compact yet spacious-feeling unit. The washing machine was also very handy. Stayed 11/04/2023 to 16/04/2023
