About this house rental
A classic beach house in a great spot. Corsair Cottage has 2 bedrooms, 1 with a queen bed and the other with twin bunks, sleeping 6 in total.
Cross the road & it's about a 300m walk to a sheltered swimming and dog friendly beach. Less than a 30 min beachfront boulevard stroll to Pt Lonsdale shops & the same distance to Queenscliff. You can choose whether you stroll along the dog beach, through the Moonahs via 'Lovers walk' or along the shores of Swan Bay.
Rinse off from the surf in the outdoor shower or at night lay back in the outdoor bath under stars listening to the surf.
Corsair Cottage is perfect for kids. It's opposite the beach, room to run and play in the front yard or cubby and it is a few hundred metres to a skate park and marine discovery centre which has great school holiday programs. The property is well connected to various kid safe bike and scooter trails.
Please BYO linen including sheets, towels and tea towels. Pillows and doonas are provided.
Off street parking is available out the front of the property.
The property is a great holiday for your dogs too. Many say the dog beach opposite is one of the best in the state, the best part is you don’t need to load wet and sandy dogs into your car. The property is fully fenced. Pets are welcome inside, we just ask that you keep them off furniture and clean up after them.
Please note: As we are in a residential area and friendly with our neighbours, we do not accept schoolies groups, hens or bucks parties or functions of any sort.

Great location for daily walks to the dog beach and family bike rides to either Queenscliff or Port Lonsdale and beyond. Hoping for a summer visit.
Catherine the host made us feel very welcome with great communication.
Perfect place for a getaway with the family dog!!

Great location if you have dogs. It's only a short walk to a safe off lead dog beach.
Main road is quite busy and noisy.
Accom is more than adequate but could do with a paint job and new curtains and blinds.
Would visit again though as location is great.

This cute old fashioned beach cottage was perfect, it has everything you need for a simple relaxing and comfortable stay, with a few mod-cons. The yard is realy private, and superbly fenced, our two Cairns had a great time in the space (plenty of safe space for games of catch). The dog beach is wonderfully close, a simple 5-10 minute walk. Making the outdoor shower a great feature to rinse off the beach. The big air-con and ceiling fan worked brilliantly during a heat wave. We loved the welcome gift waiting for us, and the ball thrower waiting for the dogs was perfect (as we forgot ours). From booking, to stay, and after, our hosts were simply wonderful. Corsair Cottage will become a regular for us.

we were delighted with the house and perfection location, our dogs loved it also. Easy walk to the beach with great food shops with in a 5 minute drive. 10/10
Found Ocean view fish and chips in Ocean Grove far better than the Queenscliff fish and chip shop .. well worth the 12 minute drive ..

Great location, close to everything!
Our little poodle enjoyed the dog beach and the grassy front yard.
Well equipped little house with everything we needed-We felt very much at home.
Bunks could do with an upgrade, very squeaky but comfy.
Communication with the host was fantastic, very responsive, and informative!
Will be back 😉

The two of us and our two dogs had a lovely weekend at the Corsair Cottage. The beautiful dog's beach just opposite was the best. The bed was comfortable and the living room spacious. We didn't make use of the cooking facilities as there were lots of restaurant options so close either in Pt Lonsdale or Queenscliff. We had relaxing evenings in the front garden, looking at the stars but we were not brave enough to use the outside bath, especially now that there is another house at the back, LOL. Overall, a nice relaxing weekend with our furry babies.

Absolutely amazing lillte place and so close to the beach ⛱️

The cottage was ideal for my husband and I and our small dog. Secure yard, neat and clean home with everything we needed in a convenient location almost opposite dog friendly beach and close to Queenscliffe. Owner was very helpful and responsive in all communication. We would definitely stay again and hope to return one day for another lovely short break.

Perfect for a couple of days away with the dogs.
Would like to stay there again when there is some
Wi-Fi.
4.8
Check-in and communication was fantastic and we even were able to check in a little earlier which was very kind.
As some other reviews have already highlighted the location is the clear winner of this property with the dog beach just across the road.
But the house definitely needs a little TLC. Certain things got renovated but others still need that attention and some serious dusting off.
Portable fans were available and plenty of extra cushions and blankets, but unfortunately the nights do get quite cold and a portable heater would be great especially for the kids room.
Overall we had a great stay, but love to see some more work and detail put into this place before we would book it again.
4.8
Lovely location, Queenscliff is a great place to visit and explore.
No WiFi was a little disappointing! Otherwise thank you

This was a great house for a weekend away with the family. Walking distance to Point Lonsdale for a coffee, the skate park for our son and the beautiful dog beach for our fluffies. The accommodation was very comfortable with everything we needed.

Found the property very easily and enjoyed my little mini break. Very comfortable and relaxing place. I had my 2 dogs who loved the close access to the beach.
Will consider returning in the warmer weather.

Overall really great - the fenced yard was great for the dog and the check in process was super easy. Didn't end up cooking but the kitchen was well stocked, plenty of extra blankets etc and the reverse cycle heater/air conditioner kept us cosy.
Would have been good to have WiFi - normally we don't worry about it because we have plenty of data on our phones but the reception in the house was really bad (though fortunately lots of DVDs so no need to stream!). And the dog beach nearby was super narrow (the name Narrows Beach should have given it away!) - so much so that when we accidentally went during high tide we were about worried about the safety of our dog, although he wasn't complaining and it was nice to have it so close.
30 minutes walk from centre of Queenscliffe, 30 minute walk from a lovely shopping and eating strip in Point Lonsdale, or of course a 5 minute drive from both!
4.8
Lovely cottage walking distance to the beach, it was fabulous being able to bring our dog. Would definitely stay again!
4.8
Wonderful location we loved being able to walk to dog beach in less than 5min. Really quick drive to Point Lonsdale and main street in queenscliff. Owner was amazing and even touched base to let us know about what was on while we were there. Easy check in and check out. A couple of things that could be improved the products in bathroom were a lovely touch but was a little turned off as they had been used. Bins hadnt been emptied and the wooden beams were very dusty. Both my children have allergies and unfortunately where agitated because of this. We had to give the bbq a full clean as it hadnt been cleaned since last time it was used . Overall we had a lovely stay this little cottage just needs a little TLC and this place has potential to be 5 star.

This stay is in a great spot. So easy to go to anything on the peninsula. Comfortable and cosy. And our dogs were very happy in the yard. Thankyou Catherine 👍💖

We enjoyed our stay , and found the holiday home had all that we needed .

We were totally dissappointed about being woken up at 7:00am on our first morning with builders noise , nail guns, loud music and large crane delivery overlooking the back fence. Seriously major construction going on with tradies standing on roof and looking into the back yard. Had we known the extent of building and noise and the complete loss of our privacy we would not have booked at all. Our dogs went completely off tap and we were unable to do anything but isolate them inside the house till we packed up and left.
We believe we were decieved by not being informed of this prior to or during our booking and full payment using the stayz website. The owners just happened to mention the neighbours were building, when they sent us the key access code just prior to our arrival, BUT NOT before we booked and made full payment. We were not expecting that level of inordinate disruption to our holiday.
It was a very unhappy start to our wedding anniversary, with my wife in tears.
4.8
Very good property. Very close to the beach. Only issue is road noise, but then you need to stay further away from the beach.
4.8
Enjoyed my stay here with my small dog. Great location for beach walks and everything the Bellarine has to offer.
Just a few things about the cookware and BBQ. I mostly stayed in to cook and was a bit disappointed about the saucepans and frypans that need an update...scratched and worn non stick pans aren't very healthy to cook with.
The BBQ was new but was not clean and the drip tray was full of oil.
Overall it was a relaxing stay, however.
4.8
Queenscliff and Point Lonsdale are lovely places to visit. This was a great place to spend the long weekend. Across the road from the beach and the communication with owner was quick and easy.

Our dog loved being so close to the beach! Property is in an ideal location to use as a base for exploring the surrounding areas. House had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay.
