Cute cottage & good location

I made a slight mistake when I booked but owners were understanding & generous. Unfortunately there was no bottle of 'bubbles' left as advertised, nothing left to wash dishes & cottage needs a good scrub. Beds were comfortable & clean. Nice location.

Quaint and rustic cottage

A pleasant 6 night stay in Port Fairy. The cottage is in a great central location, only few minutes walk to everything. We arrived a little early to find the owner (Bore) onsite. Bore was very friendly and he welcomed us with an extra bottle of bubbly. The cottage itself is historic and characterful, and was obviously renovated quite some time ago. Overall it is comfortable, with nice gardens and covered car parking, but inside is showing signs of needing some attention to detail. Quite a lot of chipped and marked paintwork, all the windows are dirty and haven't been cleaned for some time. The ensuite shower frame around the base needs a good clean and the shower door doesn't close properly. Everything is there, but things like the crockery and furniture are a bit shabby. There is a smart TV but no DVD player. There was also no bathmat provided. No a/c at this property and only only one ceiling fan in the lounge. After a 36 degree day, the bedroom could have done with something to cool it down. In summary, a general deep clean and freshen up (paint and minor repairs) would really improve the presentation, however Adeline cottage is worth a stay for it's charm and location understanding that 'rustic' is the probably the best descriptor.

Delightful cottage

We were lucky enough to be able to stay here for the Port Fairy Folk Festival. It was a great location - 10 to 15 minutes walk to all the Festival venues. And a comfortable home to come back to after our musical adventures.

Wonderful cottage with excellent location but .....

First impressions of Adeline cottage were excellent, it had all the facilities we needed, a great location, good host communication, an excellent garden and comfortable beds. Unfortunately this was let down by the smell of sewage from the drains in the bathrooms, so much that we had to stop using the master bathroom all together. It is worth noting that this issue has been mentioned in other reviews.
