Hampton Cottage - " A Place To Call Home"

Welcome to Hampton Cottage — your peaceful coastal escape, styled with classic Hamptons elegance and modern comfort.

Gorgeous little cottage in perfect location

We recently stayed at Hampton Cottage with our two children. We had never visited Port Albert and it did not disappoint! Hampton Cottage is so cosy and perfectly kept. The beds are comfortable and the Cottage is so clean. The location is in easy walking distance to everything. The Fish & Chip shop and Italian restaurants were great. For things to do in and around we visited Agnes Falls, South Gippsland Tank Adventures and had fun fishing with the kids. Hampton Cottage was a perfect, quiet family holiday. Thank you!!!

A GREAT PLACE FOR A BREAK AFTER A LONG DRIVE

A lovely new cottage located steps away from the heart of a town that is filled with the early history of Victoria. The property is exactly as offered online. Marcus was there to greet us when we arrived, with the bottle of champagne in the fridge being a nice touch. Thank you for your kind hospitality.
