About this cottage rental
Marjalis Cottage is perfect for couples, working professionals or families looking for a country getaway.
Nestled in South Gippsland between the stunning coastlines of Inverloch, Cape Patterson and Kilcunda, and only a short drive to Phillip Island, Wonthaggi is the perfect place to base yourself for day trips and many adventures.
This three bedroom original gem is located just 1km from the centre of Wonthaggi, a town built on the industry of 'black gold' - coal.
Marjalis Cottage has been freshly painted throughout and with lofty high ceilings and brand new flooring to all the bedrooms and living areas, the interior is fresh and bright.
All three bedrooms are dressed with quality linen and luxurious soft furnishings. There are two queen bedrooms which have brand new pillow top mattresses & the 3rd bedroom comprises of 2 single beds. There is also single mattress, which can be added to either queen bedroom for an extra little guest if required.
The large well equipped kitchen features a full size fridge/freezer, oven with cooktop, kettle, toaster, microwave, and all the crockery and utensils that you would expect to find at home.
Having a big delicious meal is easily done with the dining room comfortably able to seat 8 people, or you could enjoy your morning coffee and breakfast out on the private deck which has an outdoor seating area.
The bathroom is fit for the whole family, and is clean and spacious. There are full laundry facilities also available. All linen and towels are provided at Marjalis Cottage and environmentally friendly ZeroCo products are provided for your comfort.
The living room features 2 x 2.5 seater couches (one is a comfy sofa bed for an extra guest, if required). There are also numerous occasional chairs and floor cushions allowing everyone to come together.
The home features split system heating and cooling in the main living areas, and panel heaters which can be provided during colder winter stays.
There are also multiple areas to set up your mobile office if you are looking for somewhere beautiful to work from "home".
With plenty of off street parking, a large carport and shed space available for your bikes or paddle boards, this property will be entirely yours for the duration of your stay.
Make Marjalis Cottage your place to call home while you explore the rich history of Wonthaggi, the walking/riding trails, neighbouring food destinations or seaside discoveries. Marjalis Cottage can accommodate up to 8 guests, and is ideal for couples or families looking for that country getaway.

The original art decorating the rooms, the well-equipped kitchen and large bathroom, the comfortable bedroom furniture and the lovely lounge fittings all combined to make it the perfect holiday spot for us. Wonthaggi had all the things needed for a holiday in January but we didn't see any crowds. They were probably at the popular holiday spots along the Bass Coast.

First time I have rented a house ever and was a little worried as u hear of some terrible experiences. As soon as we arrived we were very happy.
Place was extremely clean, sleeping arrangements, photos and advertising was spot on and property management was very friendly, informative, simple and helpful.

A beautiful, clean and welcoming space for us to stay the last 2 days, with our four kids. The house has been renovated and it presents very nicely
Our family really enjoyed our time at this inspiring holiday home. The board games were a hit, as were some of the books and country-life magazines. We manage to wash and dry a bunch of clothes in the commercial-sized clothes washer/ dryer.

Stayed over a long weekend. This spacious cottage is bigger than it looks. It’s beautiful newly renovated with a real eye for detail. It’s got great air con and room heating. A big kitchen and bathroom. A brand new large smart TV with all the apps you want.. including Kayo ready to go!! 90 seconds drive from town. Best suited for 2 couples and 2 kids. Great value for sure.

Home away from home!
The Marjalis cottage was a beautiful quaint little home that was perfect for my little family of 5!
Beautifully decorated inside and clean with all the amenities included and needed for any family to function, it definitely made you feel like you were in a home away from home. Although we spent most of the daytime in Philip Island (30 min drive), it was exciting knowing we would be coming back to a lovely place.
Rachel was such a wonderful person to speak with right from the beginning until days after we left. She made that extra step to customise the bedrooms for my little boys with super hero pillows/decor and they loved every bit of it!
Will definitely recommend and come back if we decide to stay in the area again.
Thanks Marjalis!
