A few small things to note: we did not receive notification of the key and property access until we were already there, and had to ring the manager. Also the front door lock did not close on exiting so we had to use the back door. Also the heating was not working well in the main lounge room. But otherwise a pleasant stay. Recommended. ##### philip Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Fionna 20 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort A stunning location, easy check-in, great walks in the area.

Amazing sunrise and sunset. ##### glenn Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Pamela 26 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Our stay at the Cape Nelson Lighthouse Cottage was excellent! The facilities were top-notch, and the location was absolutely beautiful, with easy access to stunning walking tracks. We loved watching kangaroos and wallabies right outside the cottage — such a unique experience. Breakfast was delicious and a perfect start to each day. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a peaceful and memorable getaway. ##### Pamela Stayed 1 night in Apr 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Emma 30 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Everything about this place is beautiful!

A little remote but still close enough to town. Incredible wildlife to be seen and beautiful wild views ##### Annie Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elizabeth 7 Mar 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Absolutely amazing!! A lighthouse right in the yard! ##### Elizabeth Stayed 1 night in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### June 5 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Beautiful property in a fabulous location. We loved the Head Keeper’s cottage; the older style, high ceilings, tasteful decor and comprehensive amenities. It was wonderful that breakfast items were provided - the eggs were delicious! The property was very comfortable and homely, we only wish we were staying more than one night! ##### June Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Marg 24 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beautiful serene setting in historic cottage.

Need to bring own supplies to save driving back to Portland. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Eve 31 Jul 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities The idea of staying in the lighthouse cottages appealed. The Caretakers cottage was not as old as the others but suited us as a couple with just the one bedroom in use. Everything was there that you needed with the heater keeping the place cosy. Cereal, eggs, bacon etc were provided for breakfast. The TV reception was poor, maybe due to the wind and maybe this was keeping the animals away as we only saw one kangaroo and no wombats despite the copious poo ! Would have loved to stay another night. ##### Eve Stayed 1 night in Jul 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Lindsay 18 Apr 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Lovely location with wonderful views. Handy also to Portland and Cape Bridgewater. It was very special staying in a former Assistant Lighthouse Keeper's house. The standard of accommodation was fine but not five star. Breakfast goodies were welcome. Our host did his absolute best to sort a television reception problem at the start of our stay, even smoothing the way with a bottle of bubbly! ##### Lindsay Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Club Wyndham Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Club-Wyndham-Airlie-Beach.h2802992.Hotel-Information) > > [Bannisters Port Stephens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Soldiers-Point-Hotels-Bannisters-Port-Stephens.h27355893.Hotel-Information) > > [Exmouth Escape Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Exmouth-Hotels-Exmouth-Escape-Resort.h4032424.Hotel-Information) > > [Novotel Liverpool Paddington Village](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Liverpool-Hotels-Novotel-Paddington-Village.h76583844.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Ningaloo Reef Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Coral-Bay-Hotels-Ningaloo-Reef-Resort.h4257765.Hotel-Information) > > [RAC Monkey Mia Dolphin Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Monkey-Mia-Hotels-RAC-Monkey-Mia-Dolphin-Resort.h2650828.Hotel-Information) > > [Torquay Foreshore Caravan Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Torquay-Foreshore-Caravan-Park.h6001296.Hotel-Information) > > [Wyndham Resort Torquay](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Torquay-Hotels-Wyndham-Resort-Torquay.h1927122.Hotel-Information) > > [Coral Sea Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-Coral-Sea-Marina-Resort.h1047180.Hotel-Information) > > [Apex Grassmarket Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Edinburgh-Hotels-Apex-Grassmarket-Hotel.h62750.Hotel-Information) > > [Ozone Hotel Kangaroo Island](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kingscote-Hotels-Aurora-Ozone-Hotel.h2737459.Hotel-Information) > > [Rochester Riverside Holiday Park](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Rochester-Hotels-Rochester-Riverside-Caravan-Park.h65341713.Hotel-Information) > > [Lilianfels Resort & Spa - Blue Mountains](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-Lilianfels-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h872.Hotel-Information) > > [The Carrington Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sydney-Hotels-The-Carrington-Hotel.h474003.Hotel-Information) > > [Kangaroo Island Wilderness Retreat](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Karatta-Hotels-Kangaroo-Island-Wilderness-Retreat.h2041654.Hotel-Information) > > [By The Sea Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-By-The-Sea-Port-Douglas.h3024406.Hotel-Information) > > [Heron Island Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Heron-Island-Hotels-Heron-Island-Resort.h1636471.Hotel-Information) > > [Glamping at Truffle Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Gretna-Hotels-Truffle-Lodge.h22239606.Hotel-Information) > > [All-Inclusive Hotels in Cala d'Or](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Cala-DOr-Hotels-All-Inclusive-Hotel.0-0-d6050485-tAllInclusiveHotel.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Sheraton Grand Mirage Resort, Port Douglas](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Sheraton-Grand-Mirage-Resort.h8065.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Hunter Valley Gardens](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pokolbin-Hotels-Mercure-Resort-Hunter-Valley-Gardens.h1877968.Hotel-Information) > > [Mandalay Luxury Beachfront Apartments](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Port-Douglas-Hotels-Mandalay-Luxury-Beachfront-Apartments.h2648804.Hotel-Information) > > [The Lost Camel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Yulara-Hotels-The-Lost-Camel.h4805954.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritage Trail Lodge Margaret River](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Margaret-River-Hotels-Heritage-Trail-Lodge-Margaret-River.h9624427.Hotel-Information) > > [voco St. John's Solihull by IHG](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Birmingham-Hotels-Voco-St-Johns-Solihull.h800475.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) ### Packages
