Very comfortable and welcoming, everything from home made bread, coffee machine and extra goodies. Great to sit in the garden looking over the river to enjoy the view and the sunshine. Would highly recommend.

This lovely house on the river has wonderful views and plenty of serenity. We stayed during COVID-19 late September and were very fortunate to have the kitchen lounge area to ourselves. The ammenities were spot on and the extra home made bread and biscuits by Jane were very much enjoyed! Not to mention the local port wine! Would recommend this 3 bedroom house for a family or group of friends. Close to town and East beach. We walked everywhere! And the area outside the house has rambling lawn and lovely well kept gardens. Just lovely!

We spent seven nights at Douglas Riverside with family (4 adults, 2 teenagers) and had a magnificent time. On arrival we found the property impeccably clean, tidy and fitted with all the necessities for a very comfortable, self catering holiday. Proprietor Jane clearly goes to considerable effort to add a range of thoughtful and caring welcome touches such as fresh flowers, a loaf of home baked bread, bowl of fresh fruit, milk and chocolates in the fridge and mini Tim Tams in each room. We were able to change linen and towels as often as needed during our stay. The lounge area has delightful, soothing views up and down the Moyne River which is literally just outside the windows. The surrounding gardens and lawn are maintained to a very high standard. This is an ideal property to rent with family or a group of friends. Bedroom 3 has a separate room with single bed and shared en-suite which is ideal for adults with a child or teenagers of different gender. An easy walk along the waterfront and into town for shopping, cafes and restaurants. A thoroughly enjoyable week with special thanks to Jane and Rod.…

A lovely welcome, and a room (number2) right on the river. Not a large room, as someone else mentioned, but perfectly fine. The breakfast was superb. It was available for us in the breakfast room, warm croissants and plenty of healthy options if you wanted it. Tea and coffee available all day, along with cookies. Even a glass of Port if you wanted. We only stayed one night, but you could stay here a few nights and not get fed up!

We spent two nights in Room 1 with great views of the river. The room was not large but had all the amenities you require and was very clean. A separate breakfast/sitting room connected to the bedrooms and had great views of the river and provided a tranquil place to sit and relax with a cup of tea or something stronger. A breakfast basket was left in the fridge for each room and was excellent. A good place to stay and close to the centre.
