Douglas Riverside

Excellent location. Clean. Terrible bed (&bedding)

Very welcoming people very comfortable and clean will go back and a touch of history

After many hrs on the road, we arrived to find a welcoming smile from Jane who took time to show us the Beautiful ppty, we were lucky enough to have booked the river front unit, beautifully presented and all the things you need for that memorable holiday, it’s not a motel unit it’s much more, once you settle in it’s so relaxing and peaceful, having a glass of wine looking at the river. Short walk to Main Street and plenty of shops for the girls and pubs for the boys, we’ll definitely be back.

My husband and I stayed at Douglas Riverside for two nights in February 2022. It is ideally located along the river and close to all the shops, cafes and restaurants. We stayed in the garden house and this was absolutely wonderful. The large lounge, living and dining area is bathed in glorious light and has the most spectacular views out over lush gardens and the river. The only problem is: you won’t want to leave the house! Jane was an excellent hostess and left a well-stocked fridge and even a loaf of her delicious home-made bread. The garden house was perfect for us as one couple but, having three ensuite queen size rooms, it would be great for small groups or families as well. The bedroom was a great size and the bed linens and towels were a luxury quality, as were the appointment in the bathroom. I would highly recommend you choose Douglas Riverside as your base if ever visiting Port Fairy.
