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.

Guest access:
The cottage is accessed from the front garden up some stairs on the balcony.

There is one guest parking space in the driveway (in front of the garage) any additional cars can park on the street or on my nature strip.

Please note there are stairs to the cottage.
Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned cottage, which features a fireplace and a Smart TV. There's a private balcony or patio. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected.
Take in the views from a garden and make use of amenities such as barbecue grills.

I can't say enough about this beautiful place. I honestly don't want to leave. Both San Remo and the accommodation were everything I was hoping for and more. We loved it so much that we extended our stay. Everything was clean and tidy, the beds and couches were so comfortable and the ambience was just so peaceful and relaxing. Also, the view was incredible. The host, Alicia, was so friendly and welcoming, full of local knowledge and nothing was too much trouble. It really is a home away from home. Another bonus was that my dog absolutely had the best time! Without a doubt, we will definitely be back. Thankyou so much Alicia for one of the best holidays ever ❤️ 😊

My partner and I had the best three nights stay at salty paws! I’m not sure who enjoyed themselves more us or our two beautiful Kelpies, alysha had set up the house just perfect for all of us to feel completely at home while looking out at the beautiful water views! We went on so many beautiful walks from our doorstep, snuggled up by the fire at night time! What a beautiful little town and House we will definitely be back!! Renee, mikey, Smokey and Rocco xx

Wonderful holiday with my dog
My dog and I had a thoroughly relaxing, quiet and pleasant four night stay at Salty Paws. Exactly what I'd been looking for. The host Alicia was very welcoming, kind and attentive, while being respectful of privacy. Her property is very cosy, well appointed, super clean and has every amenity you might need and more besides. It is well situated, with balcony views of the sea where you can enjoy outstanding sunsets from inside or outside. Alicia is able to provide excellent suggestions on walks for your dog and other invaluable local information, in addition to what's provided in the excellent info booklet she has produced for visitors. It's absolutely perfect for people travelling with a dog, with a very secure private garden area and even warm water, shampoo and towels to clean off your salty, sandy pooch before coming inside. I'm already looking forward to a future visit next year and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Salty Paws to family, friends or anyone! Thank you Alicia 🙂

We couldn't be happier with our stay at Salty Paws. Alicia was so friendly and obliging, the cottage was beautifully appointed, it had everything we could possibly want or need, and the water views were amazing. Easy access to shops & restaurants, and the fact that we could take our little dog along was icing on the cake. We will definitely be back.

This is a fantastic place to stay with your four legged friends. Fantastic facilities and a quiet location that is close to all the shops and walks you need to have a wonderful stay. Exceptionally comfortable home with great views. We will certainly be back and we can’t rate Alicia as a host highly enough.

Time out in San Remo
The property was everything we hoped for; clean, comfortable, perfect view of the Bay, and great location for access to local interests. Our host, Alicia, was very friendly and at the same time gave us the space you want when on holiday. No complaints, would definitely recommend this property to others spending time along the Bass Coast

Beautiful beach getaway
We had such an amazing time at Salty Paws cottage. The place was so bright, clean and spacious and Alicia provided so many little extras that made the trip so much more enjoyable. Location is great, just a 15 minute stroll into town and the views from the deck are absolutely breathtaking. Our puppies had the best time also and Alicia thoughtfully provided so many little extras for them also. We would definately recommend and would absolutely stay here again :)

Dog friendly property
Quiet location with close proximity to shops and beaches. The house has everything you need. Alicia provided many helpful tips and conveniences to make our stay enjoyable. The large deck provided a safe outdoor area for the dog and us to enjoy the views across the water. A perfect and safe place to take your smaller dog - particularly if they usually live indoors with you. Our dog really enjoyed her stay and we did too! Alicia also has dogs. They are friendly and quite hilarious to interact with. Access note - the residence is upstairs, so may not suit dogs or people with mobility issues.
