Portobello Settler's Cottage

Great little cottage, very small kitchen area but adequately equipped. The bedrooms were very comfortable but note it is ladder access to the upstairs. The host was very nice and offered us eggs from her chickens and veggies from the garden. The cottage was spotlessly clean. There was ample parking. Small shop nearby otherwise you have to drive back to Dunedin for supplies.

You cannot see the sea from the cottage

Location

Very small space for relaxing, probably to be expected in a property of this kind.

Lovely well restored cottage with good beds. Access to garden produce which was terrific

The 10min delay for flushing the loo very inconvenient with 3 people staying

A charming cottage, comfortably appointed and with so much character. Super quiet at night, we thought it was a great base from which to explore the Otago Peninsula, handy for the albatross colony and penguins, and close to Portobello for grocery shopping and dining. The lovely garden was in its summer glory, full of flowers and herbs and vegetables which we were encouraged to use during our stay. Cooking facilities were simple but effective and we were nice and warm on a coolish night. Really delightful, we'd stay again.

The history of the place. Friendly hosts. Lots of birds, delightful garden. Easy to find. Handy to the albatross colony and other scenic spots. Not too far from Dunedin. Cool in the heat of the day. Of all of the places on the summer holiday, this had the most comfortable bed. I did stay 2 nights despite what it says

Nothing comes to mind.

The character of the cottage, and the owners' sympathetic refurbishment. Very quiet and comfortable and in a great location.

This was a remarkable place in a hertitage cottage. Everything I needed was there and the quality and presentation was excellent. The rustic stting just made it even better.
