Captains Cottage – One of Huskisson’s Original Coastal Cottages
Sleeping up to 10 guests when travelling with children (maximum 8 adults), Captains Cottage is one of Huskisson’s original cottages, offering a relaxed, old-world coastal stay just one street back from the heart of town.
This is not a modern build — it is a character-filled, historic cottage that has been tastefully refreshed while retaining its rustic charm and traditional coastal feel. Guests who appreciate heritage homes, space, and unbeatable location will feel right at home here.
Located only one block from Huskisson’s main street, Captains Cottage is ideal for families wanting to park the car and enjoy everything Huskisson has to offer on foot. Children can safely play in the shaded, fully fenced backyard while adults relax with a BBQ after a day at the beach.

Please ignore the "Nightly Rate". The rates set by Latitude South Coast are calculated as a fixed amount for the first two nights followed by a lower nightly rate, or length of stay rates. This allows you to add extra nights at a discounted rate (the longer you stay, the lower the average nightly rate). Unfortunately Airbnb doesn't allow for the way we set our rates in their calculation. Please let us know if you have any questions about this.
