    Proximity to Colwell Bay, charming building, well-appointed rooms

    Inconvenient check-in times!!! Noise from plumbing can disrupt relaxation!!! The separate taps for hot and cold water are frustrating!!! Improvements in bathroom privacy would greatly enhance comfort!!!

    charming base for exploring colwell bay and nearby parks

    During my stay, I enjoyed the short walk to Colwell Bay, where lovely coastal walks and stunning views awaited, and Denise and Matt made me feel right at home with their personalized touches like the exceptional breakfasts. however, there was a bit of plumbing noise that could be improved.

    ideal location
    delicious breakfasts
    electric bikes
    plumbing noise

    We had a fantastic time with friends! The location is ideal, just a short stroll to the beach and vibrant boardwalk. Breakfasts were a highlight. Matt whipped up a variety of delicious options each morning. we loved hiring the electric bikes to explore nearby spots like Yarmouth Ferry and Colwell Bay. Highly recommend for groups!

    The only downside was the occasional plumbing noise, which was a bit disruptive at times.

    spacious room
    excellent breakfast
    clean property
    separate taps

    Rockstone Cottage was a delightful surprise. The room was spacious and immaculately clean with a very comfortable bed, perfect for relaxing after a day of sightseeing. Each breakfast featured delightful options, with my favorite being the smoked salmon and scrambled eggs. Matt cooked everything to perfection every morning. The location was fantastic, just a short walk to Colwell Bay, which we frequented. Denise even offered us hot milk when we couldn’t find a coffee shop open. That personal touch made all the difference. One minor downside was the separate taps for hot and cold water in the bathroom, which felt a bit outdated. the hosts were accommodating and very welcoming, creating a homely atmosphere. I had an enjoyable stay and would come back for sure!

    delicious breakfast
    amazing hosts
    weather frustration
    unexpected sunshine

    Rockstone Cottage is a gem! The classic fried fish at Captain's Cabin was a standout, and the smoked salmon at breakfast was to die for. Denise and Matt were amazing hosts—every detail of our stay was spot on and absolutely delightful.

    Honestly, it was perfect! But a little sunshine would’ve made it idyllic, even though our stay already felt like a proper holiday.

    friendly hosts
    thin walls

    Charming stay in Freshwater! 🌊

    The brekkie with smoked salmon was lekker! Matt and Denise were super friendly and even brought us hot milk when we needed it. Such a nice touch to our stay!

    The walls were a bit thin, so we could hear our neighbors now and then.

    comfortable bed
    inconvenient taps

    great stay with minor room quirks

    The room was spotlessly clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable! ! I really appreciated the warm welcome and personal touches from Matt and Denise, especially their use of our names during service. The garden view was delightful, adding a serene touch to our mornings.

    The separate taps for hot and cold water in the bathroom were slightly inconvenient.
