The property is 2 blocks from the CBD of Portland, and 2 blocks from the cliff top that overlooks and provides access to the 'Nun's Beach'.

Portland provides many opportunities to enjoy the outdoors. It is one of the starting points for the Great South West Walk. The beautiful Bridgewater Bay is just 16 ks away and the town itself is surrounded by beautiful, diverse and pristine beaches.

Great space with a relaxed feel
The house is terrific for families, with plenty of room to relax and enjoy yourself. The location is within walking distance of the main street. We could pretty much walk from the house to any popular spot in Portland. So handy. The house has a real holiday feel; not too overdone which is great for anyone who has kids. Elizabeth was super easy to communicate with and the whole process was seamless. Thanks so much for having us. We loved our stay.

Fisherman enjoyed the home
The home was lovely and warm for those winter fishing trips, had everything they needed, location was great to walk up for a nice pub meal. Parking was a dream for the boat and hose attached made it a Fisherman’s paradise.

Interesting old cottage
Enjoyed staying in this old cottage and would have appreciated more information about it (such as when it was built, how much it has changed over the years, what woods were used on the floor and walls, etc.). Convenient location in Portland. It was windy and cold during our stay so we appreciated the heating. Local information provided by host was good.

Very compact. For 3 adults, 2 children I would probably not stay here again. The house was clean, just a little too compact for our liking. Adequate amenities.

Cute and convenient cottage in central Portland
A comfortable and very convenient place to stay. Walking distance to the shops and many attractions. Well equipped kitchen and laundry, off street parking, and great central heating (it was a very cold week in March). We would definitely recommend Hurdit to others and plan to return.

Old world charm at its best
We absolutely loved staying at this beautiful cottage. Close to the main street, close to the ocean and beautiful inside. My husband loves the original features of the wooden floors and ceiling and it had everything that we required. We will definitely book again when we come back to Portland. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
