Cosy and Homely
We had a fantastic weekend in the Cosy Cottage. Our son loved the trampoline and chickens in the yard and was very excited to be greeted by the resident doggy Molly when we arrived. The cottage was set up with milk, bread, butter, eggs and more. The lovely owners even offered us a sleep in on the day that we were checking out! The cottage was perfectly located for us to spend plenty of time at the beach and a day in Devonport. Our family have stayed at plenty of holiday rentals but this one was by far the most hospitable. We will be recommending to all our friends and family.

A cosy cottage indeed
A comfortable place to stay the night before sailing from Devonport. A little way from the heart of Port Sorrell, but only 10 minutes drive. Clean, tidy and quiet. A nice walk to the inlet. Only thing missing for a longer stay would be a dishwasher!

Neat and tidy, lives up to its name ‘Cosy Cottage’
It was a great cottage for our get away. Well presented with everything you need including fresh eggs from the chickens roaming the property. Our fur babies enjoyed the large area to run around in before laying in front of the wood heater after dark. Will certainly return when we need to stay in the area again
