The Cabin - Australian seaside cottage

Welcome to The Cabin
OFFER: 1st December through Christmas - New Year (up to 4th Jan). Book a week or more & get an 18% discount, including Christmas - New Year Period

The Cabin offers the quintessential beach shack experience, with all the comforts of an upmarket apartment.
Ideal for a couple, or single person, the Cabin consists of an open plan living room kitchen area, bedroom, bathroom and small laundry.
The Cabin is unique, with a nautical feel, it offers everyone the opportunity to enjoy a very comfortable, relaxing stay much loved by many. The current owners have both lived here as a full time home and enjoyed it and shared it with friends and family and guests over the years.
The charm of The Cabin and the space around it, in the heart of this seaside town of Hopetoun, makes it especially relaxing and enjoyable. You can forget the car if you wish and spend time on the lovely beaches around town, or you can venture further afield to the world renowned Fitzgerald River National Park, via the eastern entrance just 10 km away, or explore the coastal drive and beaches to the east of Hopetoun, each having its own unique beauty and character.
At the Cabin, you are entirely independent, in a private setting, with the benefit of being in the heart of town yet a stones throw from the beach! At night you can hear the sea lapping on the shoreline.
The Cabin is fully self-contained for your stay, and has all linen provided, has a washing machine and washing line.
For your convenience there is a deep electric frying pan, microwave and toaster, crockery and cutlery. You are also close to restaurants and cafes, the general store, bakery and the Port Hotel.
Set back on a large block The Cabin experience is added to by lovely views of the sea, town park and main street from the garden and house.

Enjoy The Cabin!

Note: A one off cleaning fee per stay applies

Perfect location & comfortable stay.

Situated on quite possibly the best block in Hopetoun, right opposite the shops and 100m from the hotel, we loved the central location. Small cabin but contained everything that we needed for a comfortable stay. Thanks!

The cabin was small but comfortable enough. The bed was a double so again, small. The crockery cupboard had an overpowering smell of mould when you opened it. This needs to be remedied as it is a health issue. I washed all crockery before using it and threw out a wooden spoon that was covered in furry mould.

Cosy hideaway

The Cabin is definitely a cosy hideaway in the centre of town. If you don’t feel like sold catering then everything is in walking distance for a quick and simple getaway.

Small and cosy

The cabin is small but somehow it works. Despite being in the heart of the small village, it is set back a long way on the block so that it is private and quiet.

Great location

Quite a small, snug little cabin but ok for short term stays. Only negative was lack of cooling and would only need a portable pedestal fan to provide some air flow on the warmer days/nights. However the positives were the location which was excellent and the cabin was set back from the main road so it was very private and quiet.

Quaint wee cottage

Reminded us a lot of holidays of yesteryear. Little bit eclectic with mixed furnishing. Clean and suitable for a couple - made a good base and place to sleep while spending the days exploring up and down the coast and nearby national park

Quaint and cosy

Our stay was tremendous, we loved the property, it was quaint and cosy, especially with the wood heater. It was everything the owner promised it would be and more. Was very clean, and had everything you would need. Location was great and everyone was very helpful, and the beach on your doorstep. Slight hiccup to begin with, had problems with the key lock box, but got it sorted eventually, so wasn't an issue in the end. Wish we could have stayed longer as it was just the type of place to snuggle up on the comfy lounges with a nice glass of wine. Bed was also very comfy. Kitchen was well equipped, and bathroom was so cute and water pressure amazing. You won't be disappointed if you get a chance to book into the Cabin . .

Cosy cabin by the Sea

Loved this cute little cabin. Very cosy and homely with comfortable bed and lounge. Well located and close to dinner venues, supermarket and bakery for breakfast croissants. Only suggestion would be for a decent sized microwave safe container for cooking as there was no hotplate or oven.

Great Location, Great Property

This property is perfect for a couple or single person. The location is absolutely superb, in the middle of town, near the pub, shops, park, beach, etc. The property is clean and tidy and has everything you would need (no oven in the kitchen, but do you really need one?). The owner is very helpful and friendly as well. On Hopetoun itself, if you've never been you definitely should get down. There are some great hikes at the National Park, you can check out the nearby silo art on the way down (including the new overpass art near Ravensthorp), the farm art trail is fun too. A great place to visit.
