Perfect beach cottage
We loved our weekend away at the cottage. It was so clean and well maintained. The host’s Colin and his wife Deborah were both so lovely, and helpful. The pool is absolutely beautiful and you have a lot of privacy. I would definitely go back there with my daughters. The location of the property was perfect close to the shops and the beach.

Best in Blairgowrie
As a family we have been travelling to that side of the peninsula for the last couple of years for our little family getaways and wish we had of found the Longford Cottage much sooner.
It’s in a great location, walking distance to some of our favourite spots. The cottage is presented absolutely lovely, with everything you need for your stay. Colin & Deb are fabulous and very helpful.
We will definitely be back..

Perfect staycay for a family weekend getaway!
We had a wonderful stay at Collin and Deborah's immaculately presented cottage apartment!
The 1 bedroom layout was spacious enough for our family of four (lounge setting converts to a double bed). We loved the view of the solar heated pool and the convenience of being close to both the front and back beaches. Plus, a short drive to Sorrento made it even better.
Collin and Deborah were wonderful hosts. We give it 5 stars without hesitation!

Colin and his wife provided us with a wonderful relaxing cottage stay at their holiday property. Their cottage was bright and clean and stylish and very central to exploring all the shops, cafes, and beaches in Blairgowrie and Sorrento. Their hospitality was pleasant and very helpful. We will most definitely return for future stays. Thank you so very much Colin. Regards Kylie and daughter Mikayla

Lovely property
This is a very charming, spacious property.
It is surrounded by by some lovely old native trees, and there are nice views of these from every window.
All of the rooms are very large with lots of windows.
The living room also has some nice french windows overlooking the swimming pool.
The cottage is very well equipped and is close to Blairgowrie, Sorrento and Rye.
There are some excellent beaches and good walking very close by. We found Koonya beach, which is about 10 minutes away to be a particular favourite with some spectacular rock features.
The hosts are very charming and friendly and can give you lots of good information about local amenities.
We would definitely stay there again, if the hosts will have us back!
Good tip, don't close the blind in the kitchen too early, otherwise you will miss some stunning sunsets.
We loved the uniqueness of the property and would highly recommend to anyone looking in the area

Perfect! (And better than the pictures!)
We only stayed for a short while with my wife and 5yo kid but loved every bit of it . The property is better than even the pictures(which are great themselves!), caters perfectly for the parents and the child, the location is perfect and last but not least- Colin and Deb are just wonderful hosts. Thank you very much and we will be sure to visit back.
