Port Cottage - Centrally located 2 bedroom house in private, quiet location

Very close to Melbourne CBD and Melbourne Park (as we stayed for Australian Open, 15 mins drive away is super convenient). The house is on a quiet street in a friendly neighbourhood with a small grocery shop (sells milk, eggs, coffee too) 150 m away, all sorts of eateries and Coles supermarket on bay street which is about 10 mins walk away. The house is very clean and well maintained. It has a washing machine, a backyard, split air cons( although it is quite cool in summer so you may not even need it )and everything else you might need for a short stay. Ample street parking, tram and bus nearby but driving is quick and easy so we didn’t use public transport. There is an off leash dog park along the tram line next to north port hotel where you can take your dog inside to eat. The owner Julie was wonderful with communications. The TV somehow broke down on third day during our stay, Julie not only came over to check for me straightaway, but also bought a new set and delivered it to us the same day! BTW a dog beach is also within walking distance at the end of bay street, where my dog had a great time running around. All in all, perfect place to stay if you have a small family with dogs or if stay for an event near Melbourne CBD. Thanks Julie and Craig for your wonderful house and hospitality! We will sure come back!

Great quiet property , close to everything and parking was easy to find , Great that it was dog friendly .. definitely recommend

Thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Port Cottage. Everything was as described on the website. The location was convenient to all my needs, is a well presented home and the neighbourhood was very quiet which is a huge bonus. The yard was secure and safe for my pet. Would stay at Port Cottage again if the need arose.

Lovely little workers cottage in a beautiful neighbourhood. Comfortable and close to many other areas. Really enjoyed our stay.

We travelled with our 2 dogs for 2 nights. We loved that the court yard is secure for them. The property was very clean and comfortable. The owners are very responsive and helpful. The propety is well located. About 30 min walk to MCEC and the area is quite. We enjoyed our stay.

We enjoyed our stay so much!!The perfect little house that was clean and tidy and had everything we needed for the week stay with our dog.We enjoyed the back courtyard to sit outside on the warm evenings. The location is perfect being so close to Port Melbourne beach, tram with quick access to the city as well as a short stroll to the variety of cafes and supermarket on Bay St. Would highly recommend and would stay again!

We were in Melbourne for Formula 1 race and this was an ideal place to stay. Close to downtown and track but quiet and a small town feel. Thanks

We stayed at Port Cottage for a long weeks with our dogs!It was perfectly appointed with easy access to trams, shops, eateries, pubs and excellent Melbourne coffee!! There is also a beautiful dog friendly park with lots of friendly locals! We used Mad Paws to find a local dog sitter while we were out of the house for the day! The cottage is perfectly adequate, comfortable beds and everything we needed for a city stay.

Good location in walking or tram distance of the CBD.

The accomodation suited our needs for a short stay in Melb to attend an event over the weekend at Melb Convention Centre. The location was great and hosts communication was excellent and prompt.

Extremely welcoming host. Property was as described and perfect for a weekend. Great cafes and pubs nearby

Our host was great checking in after our arrival and passing on her contact number for any unseen problems. The cottage was beautifully clean and in an excellent location, close to cafes, dog parks, restaurants and the beach. We had a very comfortable and enjoyable stay and wouldn’t hesitate to stay again.

Very good location, close to Bay street and the tram although you can walk to the city in only 30mins if you wanted. Coles supermarket just 5mins walk away as well. Our dog appreciated being able to do his business out the back if raining otherwise he could visit the plentiful parks in the area. 2 fantastic cafe/bakeries just a stones throw away also. Would recommend.

Cost with an excellent location. Easy to drive to, easy to park. Has all the amenities you would need.Excellent host communication.Thank you!

Good location, clean and perfect whilst travelling with our dog.

Once again we loved our stay at Port Melbourne cottage. The location is great for us (visiting MSAC). Julie is stellar to deal with (thanks Julie for returning a T-shirt my daughter left behind!). We had a great weekend again and really enjoyed the outdoor setting of the pub around the corner

Hi JulieWe had a great stay at your house. Wonderful location. Went to a couple of the great local pubs you suggested for dinner. Railway Club Hotel was the favourite.The house was clean and really comfy. Will certainly be back again.A great spot to stay.

We were very disappointed with our stay. Location was excellent, accommodation was clean, beds comfortable but:No consideration was given to visitors arriving late at night. No lights meant retrieving key from key lock box very difficult. No interior lights meant fumbling for a light switch. No milk to make a cup of tea after a five hour flight, the only thing in the fridge was a sealed bottle of dressing - bizarre, seriously? Gas on hotplates was turned on when we arrived. No welcome pack - if WIFI was connected (as stated on listing), no information was provided on how to connect.Entrance to property was covered in leaves and bird poo - didn't appear to have been cleaned for some time.Upholstery on lounge furniture cracked, no hairdryer, no shampoo. No milk supplied but plentiful cleaning product but none of it 'green' as described on listing - we didn't travel to Melbourne to clean.Ugly plastic adhesive hooks on the wall looked cheap and were not strong enough to hold a bath towel, so fell off the wall in middle of night.This was not budget accommodation so just a little expense could have been spared to make it more welcoming.

Very secure yard for dogs, everything we needed was provided. Lovely place, very clean and easy to keep clean with kids/pets. So convenient having a corner store and cafe a couple minutes walk away, and we walked into DFO with the kids a very easy stroll. The running track took me right to the casino complex in just over kilometer or so. Julie gave us timely check in info and was easy to communicate with. Would happily stay again.

The location is great, with a milk bar and cafe a short walk away. The main bathroom is off the main bedroom, which could make it awkward for some family or friend groups, but it worked for us. The air con is effective, the high ceilings make it airy. The smart TV was a little bit wobbly with Netflix crashing constantly for us (so we watched YouTube!). It's less than 10 minutes walk to the main drag of Port Melbourne, where there's an always-open supermarket and an array of different restaurants and shops.

The property is good and the location is superb. The local bakery was really nice and the milk bar is really handy.

Julie was a great host and the house suited us but it was not up to the standard we were expecting.

No frills accommodation in good location

Great area at a decent price. The only bathroom on the property is through one of the bedrooms with a seperate door going outside(?this fact was left out of the property description and I feel should have been communicated). Happy to find a pet friendly house. There are definitely no frills on this property but it was reasonably clean.overall a good stay

A charming, peaceful old cottage in a great location with exceptionally comfortable beds. Suitable for a family, due to the layout and bathroom placement.

The cottage was great, just what we needed so I could attend a conference at the convention centre which was walking distance . Owner was really accommodating when I had to add an extra night last minute One inconvenience, but no fault of the owner, was the large number of pigeons that reside in the trees around the area. My car got absolutely covered in pigeon poo over night which dried on and was a battle to get off. Tip: take a cover for the car (or no car) no issue

Love it, we will be back!

Perfect accommodation for our short stay. Excellent location and loved that we could bring our pet. Great communication with owner and easy access to property. Thank you!

Great location for Olivia’s walk with our fur family. We walked from our accommodation to Alexandra Gardens with no problems. Accommodation was comfortable, quiet and had everything we needed for our stay in Port Melbourne. Our cavaliers were happy and had an enclosed back area to play safely. Only a short walk to other walking paths and green areas and, a cafe only a few doors down. Very happy to return next year. Thankyou 🙏

Brilliant little Cottage Has everything you need super comfy beds air conditioning is great. Fantastic stay with your fur friend Doggie door Secure back yard 🐾 Everything is within walking distance Beach Coffee ( heart bakes awesome) Pub Groceries Trams Northport Hotel good food good service and your dog can be inside with you There’s a dog off leash area just around the corner that is fantastic Julie is a very considerate host and very contactable Definitely a 5⭐️ stay

Thank you Julie,it was a terrific 2 day stay.Perfect for a relaxing break.The cottage is gorgeous and met all our needs.Love Port Melbourne,great location close to parks,cafes and pubs which our 2 doggies enjoyed. Warm regards, Lisa & Co P.S Sorry I.missed popping bins out on street.
