Attention to Detail

The cottage location is spot on for walking trips to the shops, local cafes and the wharf. The cottage itself has been beautifully restored with many original features to add to its charms. The attention to detail is what makes it stand out though, with lots of special touches to make your visit comfortable.

Comfortable stay in a gorgeous cottage

Mariner's cottage is comfy and well appointed. It's walking distance to the Sunday Goolwa markets and the main street for cafes and dinner. Our 7 year old really appreciated all the toys in the third bedroom. The coffee machine came in handy and the air fryer would be great for a longer visit. We'd happily come back.

Super Snug historic cottage in perfect location

We had such a lovely long weekend at Mariner's Cottage. Our kids loved the ping pong table and yard (so did our little doggy). My husband and I loved the proximity to the cafes and Sunday Markets and it was really snug inside. Thank you for all the kitchen extras and just a really happy family stay. Katie

Central Location

A cute little cottage in the heart of Goolwa, the garden is amazing, so peaceful and relaxing. The bed was very comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. We had a problem with the T.V. on Easter Friday and we rang the owners, who then turned up at 6pm that night with a replacement. (They had come from Adelaide) Thank you again.
