Our stay was brillliant. Thank you so much. What a collection of books! Whoever knew that Ian McEwan had written a short story about the beach? Our only difficulty was upon arrival. We looked at the display of Units shown on the Reception window and found ours missing, which was a little confusing. We'd probably be told in the correspondence where the Unit was situated on the property, but our first instinct was to use the Reception noice-board. Anyway, we found it and would love to return.

We spent 3 days and 2 nights at Surf Cottage – Luxury Beach Getaway and had a wonderful stay overall.The location is perfect — only a 5-minute walk to the main beach. We spent most of our time enjoying the beach and really loved coming back to a cottage that truly feels like a home away from home.A big plus was having two boogie boards and wetsuits available (girls size 16 and adult XL), which made our beach time even better. The cottage is very well equipped — if you forget to bring something, chances are it’s already there. The kitchen, in particular, feels just like home. (Though bringing your own coffee machine is recommended if you’re a coffee lover.)The only downside was the BBQ. This was our second stay (the first was about a year ago), and unfortunately both times we weren’t able to use it. The BBQ was quite dirty, likely left that way by previous guests, and the gas tank was empty. When you’re on holiday, the last thing you want is to spend time cleaning a messy BBQ.Aside from that, everything else was fantastic. It’s a great place for a relaxed beach getaway, and we truly enjoyed our time there.

A beautiful coastal cottage south of Geelong.

Loved the property. A very short walk to an amazing swimming/surfing beach. And also a 10 minute or less walk to groceries and liquor shops and restaurants. Wished I could have stayed longer. The kitchen was nicely stalked with everything you would need. I would highly recommend “Surf Cottage” to anyone booking in Ocean Grove.

Everything you need is provided! Even the things you forget!

Clean, compact and partially private. They thought of everything you could want or need. This stay was the first of many where I did not have to pop out for anything I’d forgotten because Stewart and Faye thought of everything! The location was close to shops, restaurants and most importantly, the beaches. And after a long day out, it was divine to soak in that amazing deep bath. Well done Stewart and Faye! Highly recommend it!

Cosy log cabin in perfect location

So close you can hear the ocean. A cosy comfortable log cabin in a treed and well tended native garden. Well priced and excellent location 10 mins walk from shops and 2 mins walk from beach. The cabin is in a village of other log cabins but with plenty of privacy being well spaced out and with mature gardens. Good communication with owners.

3 ladies in our 70s loved the close location to the beach although a bit windy for a swim we paddled and walked a lot. The accomodation was great with good storage in the 2nd bedroom as well which often is not the case when we go to some places. Thanks again

Everything you need for a little get away

Surf Cottage is a perfect two-bedroom cottage for a small family getaway. The owners have thought of absolutely everything to make it feel like you're at home - games, DVDs, books, ample crockery and cutlery, comfy beds, a huge bath, even extras like cookbooks and kids wetsuits! Our only issue was we were only visiting to attend a nearby music festival and so didn't have time to fully enjoy everything the cottage and the nearby area had to offer. We'll be back!
