Brief Stay in Port Fairy
An excellent property and acurately shown in the photos, the only thing that let it down for us was that a lot of flys had got inside somehow and there was no flyspray.

Great location, beautiful beach views and all I could need.
Checking in was a breeze, and the house was perfectly located with views of the dramatic port fairy coastline. A gas fireplace kept me cosy and warm in the August cold. It was a great spot to base myself as I explored the region and it’s rich history of aboriginal cultural heritage.
