About this cottage rental
Summary:
The Old Swanport General Store offers guests cosy, heritage charm and relaxed tranquillity in the country. It enjoys an enviable position, with stunning views of the Murray River, river flats and the Swanport Bridge.
Just a short stroll from the Murray River and Swanport Reserve, the restored cottage is the ideal place to relax in any season. Enjoy the many regional experiences on offer in the Murraylands, or just hibernate with the views, a glass of wine and a good book.
The Space:
The Old Swanport General Store offers spacious living areas, with polished jarrah floorboards, including a well equipped kitchen, overlooking a cosy sitting area and large dining space with seating for eight people.
The adjacent lounge room has comfortable seating and large colonial windows that showcase the stunning views and allow warm, natural light to fill the room. French doors offer direct access to the spacious front balcony, the ideal place to relax and breathe the country air.
With three bedrooms, there is ample accommodation for guests. The master suite, with a queen size bed, is serviced by a large ensuite. Two further bedrooms, one with a queen bed and the other with two singles, share a large family bathroom. All beds and bedding are newly purchased and of a very high quality.
Outside, the rear of the home offers a large undercover patio with seating, BBQ and small garden. This area is fully fenced, making it a safe space for young children to play. The front of the cottage offers the ideal place to sit and absorb the views, with a large balcony overlooking the river flats.

10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2025
From the moment we arrived, the Swanport General Store’s heritage charm and location impressed us. The cottage was impeccably clean, spacious and appointed with thoughtful touches, and it was equipped with everything we needed. The comfy sofas in the cosy lounge offered a wonderful place to sit and enjoy the perfectly framed river‑flat views. The verandah and BBQ area were ideal spaces for unwinding after a day exploring the surroundings. Highly recommend!
