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.

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.

We had a wonderful stay at this property, a great location walking distance to town and the hosts were easy to get in contact with. Gorgeous charming home with a lovely outdoor space, would stay here again. Our only feedback is the couches aren’t the best and could do with being replaced/upgraded.

Quaint cottage in gorgeous gardens.
A lovely quaint property with gorgeous gardens, set on a beautiful tree-lined street. Easy walk to shops, restaurants, river and beaches. The welcome champagne was very thoughtful and the wood fire was very toasty during the cold winter night.

Lovely house in a great location.
For an old house it was well appointed. Fully enclosed back yard was appreciated by our two dogs. A bonus was the comfortable bed. Only other comment would be that in addition to the electric wall heaters the wood fire was well used so more fire wood could have been provided… minor issue. And maybe a bath mat!

3 Days in a Coastal Town
We spent 3 nights/3 days in Port Fairy and in Adeline Cottage. Perfectly located within a 5 min walk of pubs, cafes, shops and Foodworks - couldn't have asked for better. The cottage was very quaint and would be lovely in Summer to sit outside and enjoy the cottage garden however the wood fire was perfect for the couple of cooler days/nights. The bottle of bubbly on arrival was a really nice touch too.

Delightful cottage in THE best location
Adeline Cottage was absolutely perfect. Best location we've stayed on our trips to Port Fairy. The house had everything you could need, including some kitchen essentials like S&P, oil and tea/coffee and sugar, plus more. The beds were comfy and enough space for the kids to have their space also. We had a brilliant time walking to town (coffee place less than 100m away - yay) and Pea Soup beach.

Relaxing oasis in the middle of Port Fairy
Adeline Cottage is perfectly placed for a stay in Port Fairy, a town we love! The cottage has everything you would need for a relaxing and enjoyable holiday where you can just park the car and walk to everything. The garden is a secluded spot where you can sit and soak up the sun’s rays. Highly recommended.

Lovely, homely cottage and perfect location close to beach and shop/cafes. Outdoor terrace and garden was a lovely sunny spot to unwind with a book and listen to the birds. The toasty and efficient wood burner was a welcome treat when a cold change came through during our stay. Thank you to the hosts for a comfortable stay.
