About this property

Dinghy's Rest in the heart of town

Please note this home does not include linen. If you’d prefer not to bring your own, linen hire is available through our office just let us know and we’ll organise it for you.

This charming fisherman style family cottage is conveniently located between Swan Bay and Queenscliff’s shopping precinct, offering a comfortable and updated coastal retreat.

The home features three bright bedrooms, with a queen in the main, a double in the second, and two sets of single bunks in the third, comfortably suited to families and groups.

The modern kitchen is fully equipped with a dishwasher, microwave, spacious benchtops, and all essential amenities, flowing into the dining area with access to the backyard and BBQ space.

The adjoining living area provides a relaxed setting with a contemporary lounge, TV, Wi-Fi, DVD player, open fireplace (wood BYO), and reverse-cycle air conditioning. A second TV is also located in the main bedroom.

The bathroom includes a soaker bath, separate shower, vanity, and toilet, while the laundry offers a front-loading washing machine and an additional toilet for convenience.

Outside, the fully fenced backyard provides a secure and welcoming space for both children and pets, complete with a shaded lawn and BBQ area.

The location is ideal, with a bike track nearby connecting you to Point Lonsdale and beyond, and cafés and restaurants just a short five-minute walk away. It’s also perfectly positioned for easy access to events such as the Blues Train and Queenscliff Music Festival.

Additional information:

BYO linen (sheets, pillowcases, doona covers, towels, bathmats, tea towels). Linen hire available by prior arrangement.
Pets are welcome, with up to two well-behaved dogs permitted at no additional cost. Please bring your own pet bedding, bowls, and towels.
Tip: For guests wanting firewood, small bags are often available from the IGA Local Grocer Queenscliff on Hesse Street and sometimes from BP near the entrance to town, depending on stock availability.
