Cosy coastal cottage with all the comforts of home

Relax with your family and friends in this peaceful home away from home while exploring historic Port Albert and Nooramunga Marine National Park. Cosy up by the wood heater in the living room - firewood supplied. A fully fenced garden keeps your pets safe and a large shed can shelter your cars or boats. This is a very quiet area, perfect for a relaxed get away, with more active options including fishing, boating, kayaking, walking coastal tracks, cycling or artistic pursuits.

The fenced areas was great. And for a dog friendly property it didn't smell like dog. Thanks for a great short stay.

We had a lovely time away for our anniversary. The house was great and our dog Violet loved it - running around the well fenced yard.

A lovely and comfortable place with a garden space our dogs loved. Close to everything with a couple of good places to eat, many good walks and seemingly a fisherman's paradise.

A lovely home with everything that we needed. The garden was perfect for our kelpies with very secure fencing and two sections where they could be contained. Would recommend for sure.

We are regular summer visitors to Port Albert but this was our first time staying at Sandpiper Cottage. A welcoming, spacious and comfortable house, with all we needed for an extended stay. We particularly appreciated bring able to store the boat in the shed. Thanks Sera, we hope to be back!

We brought a ute load of split hardwood with us, along with a very happy dog. That fire box is magnificent, the walks so good, and our visit was just the best. Friday night fish and chips could not have been better! We are hoping to visit again after the next school holidays. Thank you, Sera, it’s always good.

Thank you for a lovely stay. The kitchen has a great set up for cooking your own meals. The garden is happily dog proof and the shed was great for storing the boat. Thanks again.

Wonderful place in a great little town. Encourages you to relax and enjoy both the house and region. Host was great with communication and the house was well presented and equipped. Fantastic for dogs as can be easily secured. Got great photos of Aurora Australis as a bonus!

The house was much nicer than the pictures. There was everything we need. There was even some stationary for my kids who loves art. The property is in a quiet town with an amazing view and playground for the kids. It is also a shprt 2 hour to Wilson Prom and Lake Entrance. We will definitely be back for another relaxing stay

Lovely and very clean home, tastefully decorated. The usual items included, soaps, shampoo, tea, coffee and assorted condiments. A number of games and very difficult and interesting jigsaw puzzles on hand to entertain. Big garden, with some great spots to enjoy the sun. The property is centrally located in Port Albert. We had a great 4 day stay and this accommodation certainly played a big part in the enjoyment.

What a perfect little escape this was from reality! It’s rare to find such well equipped weekend escapes that not only allow our fur babies, but include & cater to them. This gorgeous cottage escape had literally everything you could possibly have needed. The open fireplace an absolute added bonus for these cold winter days. Location great. Within walking distance to the gorgeous little pier and the walking tracks perfect for the dogs! The large yard was like Xmas all at once for our little oodle boys who have a very small yard at home & they loved the space. I can honestly say, I would be happy to book this again for a weekend getaway. Thank you Sera for a great place to escape the city!! And life, even if just for a couple of days !

Better than advertised. A well located home with all facilities necessary for a very peaceful break from the norm. A beautiful coastal hamlet with the big smoke (Yarram) just minutes away. Also very much a rarity as it caters properly for dogs. Secure outdoor area, and dogs welcome indoors. We brought our lad's bedding with us, but water and food bowls were provided, and greatly appreciated. Phone reception is crap (a positive!) but the internet is sensational! We are really eager to repeat the visit in winter.

This delightful cottage has been lovingly renovated with great flair and passion. Conveniently positioned within walking distance to the main centre of this sleepy little hamlet, it is warm and welcoming and has secure fencing front and back. A place for everything and everything in its place and clear directions makes for easy navigation of each room in the house. I loved the thoughtful little touches that you don’t often find - the 3rd bedroom having the mirror hung at child’s height and plugs in the power points to keep little fingers out of harms way. There is much to like in Port Albert- it’s relaxed nature, it’s interesting history, it’s fish and chip shop! Local coffee shop and fresh fish on the wharf. We followed all the recommendations of our host Sera and enjoyed them all, especially the Woodside Beach Hotel and the recently opened Ver Sicilia Italian Restaurant. If you are planning a trip to Port Albert stay here. I’m sure you won’t be disappointed.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Sandpiper Cottage, it is so comfortable and has everything we needed for our 3 week stay. It's just a short walk into the main town/waterfront and to walking tracks. The area experienced a power blackout and we were grateful to receive Sera's notification and text explaining where to find torches and candles etc. Planning to be back next year!
