About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Cosy coastal cottage

Centrally located, minutes from the Kiama Harbour, within walking distance to Bombo (5 min) and Surf beach (12min), Black beach and the rockpool . Step outside the front door with a view to the lighthouse, and enjoy the cafes, restaurants and boutique shopping.

This historic, late 19th century quarryman’s cottage is fully renovated, with all work sympathetic to and in keeping with its history. The cottage is styled in a relaxed coastal style with some vintage charm, and inspiration from our travels.

‘Allwood Harbour Cottage’ is perfect for couples and friends or a family. Well-behaved pets are welcome (at no extra fee) with snacks included.

No extra cleaning fee.

Note: There are security cameras located on the outside of the house. These will be switched off before check-in and during a guest's stay.

A home away from Home Allwood cottage
The minute we walked in it was so like home and inviting. Dora has styled and welcomed you and our pet with welcome packs and the home is set up very well. Everything you need is there. Location, set up and comfort at our finger tips. We had a great stay, and we totally recommend this cottage a way to unwind and take in Kiama.

Well appointed and amazingly looked after!
Felt very looked after by Dora. The attention to detail was really appreciated. It’s the little things that made our stay so relaxing and stress free! I forgot my makeup remover, there were some in the vanity cupboard, things I didn’t even think of this place had. My cat Blue enjoyed his stay as well with the special care package on arrival! So very happy! Dora is definitely a SUPER HOST! Thank you 🙏

Allwood Harbour Cottage
This is such a beautiful little restored cottage with just the right amount of space for our family. The host is wonderful to deal with and is very thoughtful with all the inclusions and the welcome gift for us and our dogs was such a nice little touch.

Wonderful host, lovely cottage
The host truly is a super host! Very responsive to messages and queries, even when we had a last minute hiccup with travel and I had to text her very late at night and I managed to get a reply. Very kindly offered to move our stay dates due to last min travel delay. House was also spotless, kitchen was more well equipped than my own at home! House on a quiet street which is safe yet not far from restaurants etc. will recommend 100%

Our second year in Dora’s beautiful home in the heart of Kiama. Perfect days spent swimming in the continental pool, walking the dogs in the beach and eating The Pines gelato each afternoon. Highly recommended!

Lovely stay as always
I love going to Kiama and staying at Allwood Cottage. It is like a home away from home for me. The house is very comfortable and well appointed and so close to the shops / cafes in Kiama. Our check in process was easy and convenient. Highly recommended :)

A great mini break in Kiama
