Comfortable pet friendly retreat
Miffy's Cottage was comfortable and just what we needed for a quiet long weekend away with our Kelpie. Property is pet friendly however both front and back yards were not secure enough for us to take our dog outside without being on a lead. He did enjoy watching the sheep and cows in the adjoining paddock from the sunroom though. Was a little disappointed that the beach is not really accessible directly from the street at the front of the property unless you scramble over the rock wall which we did not do. In any event we enjoyed our stay and the cottage was homely and had everything that we needed. Something I will note is that there was a good range a saucepans which you don't often find in other rental accommodation but only one of these saucepans had a lid so that was a bit strange. Overall it is a comfortable property and we would stay there again.

Wonderful time
Overall we had a great time here at Miffy’s House was clean & tidy and perfect for our needs. Located a short 8min drive from the centre of Portland was ideal. Walk down the driveway cross a road and we were standing on the sand watching our kelpie run wild, loving the water. The beds were comfortable, which was surprising as we had experienced shockers before. Only downside for us was the lounge suite sagged a lot & was very uncomfortable. Just meant we got off our bums and did a lot of tourist stuff lol. Would we go back there… yes that’s a definite
