Set in an incredible location with breathtaking panoramic bay views from its private clifftop landing, this iconic property offers a unique opportunity to experience a slice of Victorian history. Built circa 1887, the cottage was originally the home of Fort Nepean’s Master Gunner, and went on to house military personnel who fortified the area during WWI & WWII. Surrounded by original bunkers and gun emplacements, the cottage has been lovingly restored and now offers a truly unique stay in Portsea.

All profits from stays at this property go to Portsea Camp, who support disadvantaged and special needs children and their families.
