Lovely cottage in a quiet pocket, close to the beach and local shops. Perfect for a couple or a family to stay
A great stay! It’s been a few years since we last stayed in Blairgowrie. The house was easy, very clean, in a great location and suited our needs wonderfully. Our fur baby is very old now and so good to be able to bring her with us. Thanks!
Great holiday house – this was a lovely house with all the amenities necessary for a holiday stay – comfortable furniture, great location in walking distance from the beach, a beautiful garden and verandahs on each side. Speedy response to a loose panel that was banging in the wind.
Our family had a lovely winter stay at the Blue Cottage. It’s a compact ‘old school’ light filled holiday house with modern updates and home comforts. The front and rear views were appreciated by us and give an expansive feeling. The beds were very comfy and it was great to have the linen and towels provided.
This was a great house for a group. Very clean and well appointed. The check in and check out process was a breeze!
Great accomodation and views, walking distance to village and front beach (8-10mins). Excellent wifi, my teenagers loved the downstairs room with the playstation. Kitchen well stocked with nice platters, crockery and glassware – highly recommend.
We really enjoyed our stay at Blairgowrie Blue Cottage. The beach house within walking distance from the beach and shops. Clean, modern property, perfect for families with all the amenities you need including games room for the kids, streaming and wi-fi. Especially enjoyed the beautiful ocean views from the deck, and will definitely come back again to explore more of the Penninsula.
Lovely clean house in a perfect position in the top of a hill with views out both sides. All basic amenities you need are provided. Fences for dogs and expansive yard a bonus Agent fantastic to deal with. Loved our stay – will be back.
Great location and beautiful deck for watching the sunset
Great holiday house for a family!
This place was outstanding, we loved our stay and the view was gorgeous! Absolutely recommend this place for a short or long stay. Shops are very close and the beaches were in walking distance.
Sparkling clean, beautiful bird songs, cosy and comfortable and a great position to enjoy both front and back beaches. We loved our stay, hope to return
Great location, perfect space for family
Great property and great location – walking distance to front beach, Cafés, supermarket and back beach and at the time quiet and secluded. Prompt responses and easy check-in, going above and beyond. Thank you! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a great, relaxing break on the peninsula!
Fantastic location with a brilliant view! Perfect weekend away with the kids and dogs!
