Gorgeous old cottage with new bathroom and kitchen though. Location is an easy walk to the wharf or main st. Can be a little noisy as it’s near a main road but didn’t impact us much. Apart from communication challenges (which may well have been the booking app) was a very pleasant stay.

Wayfarers Cottage is a lovely place to stay. The location is great for either staying around Goolwa, or exploring some of the other sites along the coast. The bed was comfortable, kitchen super well stocked with everything you need, and the fireplace(s) are a great edition for those colder nights. Couldn't fault this place at all. Roger is also a lovely host, and the attention to detail and instructions around the place was a special touch.
