Salty Paws Dog Friendly Luxe Cottage

: :New Additions: : front fenced garden area for your dogs, flyscreens on all doors and windows, Nespresso coffee machine.

Set on the hill in San Remo, the cottage has stunning water views to Westernport Bay. Relax on the deck and watch the tides change.
This colorful and comfortable home with established gardens is walking distance to a dog friendly beach (summer restrictions apply) and the local township with bars, cafes and shops.
Full kitchen, 2 bedrooms, bathroom and open living / dining space which looks out over the deck. Fully fenced for your dogs.

Host and her dogs live onsite, with completely separate entrances and garden spaces.

A bit more about the space:

Salty Paws cottage is a comfortable, light filled space set in beautiful gardens with stunning views over Westernport Bay.

The bedrooms have orthopedic quality mattresses with 1000 thread count sheet sets and fluffy wool quilts.

The bathroom has a deep luxurious bath and shower with Dindi Naturals shampoo, conditioner, hand / body wash and moisturiser provided for your use, including bubble bath for a relaxing treat.

The lounge has cosy sofas, with Netflix and wifi provided, and a full kitchen with everything you need to cook up a storm.

In winter firewood will be provided with everything you need to get the Coonara going for some extra warmth. (Cottage also has split system heating.)

The cottage is complimented with a wrap around balcony, with chairs for lounging and a dining setting, the perfect place to enjoy watching the sun set after a bbq on the Webber. There is also a gate on the balcony and fencing around the front garden to keep your dogs safe.

For the doggies I provide a toy basket, some beds on the deck (dogs are allowed inside too,) dog towels and blankets for those that can’t resist sitting on the furniture. I also have a hot/cold water tap on the balcony with Dindi Naturals dog shampoo to wash away the sand and mud after fun adventures.

Salty Paws is a 15 minute walk to the local ‘Foots Beach’ a popular surfing spot with a lovely bay for swimming and is also dog friendly.
Dog restrictions apply in January.

It’s also a 15 minute walk to the town with pubs, restaurants, cafes and clothing/homewares shops.

The view was beautiful and the location was ideal - a nice walk into San Remo or easy to head over the bridge onto the island to explore. Lots of thoughtful touches and a well appointed kitchen. Communication with the host was great. Would stay again (and bring the dogs next time).

We arrived just in time to sit in the big green arm chairs and watch the sun go down by the warmth of the log fire. Was such a cosy, comfy getaway that exceeded our expectations. Beds were super comfy and Alicia was very responsive and helpful.
Our dog loved the views too.
