Tidy little 3-bed cottage!

We came up to Townsville for Basketball QLD state championships and were very lucky to have found this lovely little cottage! We only used two of the three bedrooms but the space was welcome and all the essentials were on hand thanks to the owner (incl. soap, towels, pillows & linen, toilet paper and laundry detergent). With a Woolies close by we were set! It was also an absolute blessing to have air conditioning in all the bedrooms and also the living/kitchen/dining room… a must for North QLD heat! Another final note - so many other parents in our group found other places to stay and complained about the noise and nocturnal happenings close by. We just smiled and thought “not for us! Perfect location… 10mins to get anywhere and it’s quiet and peaceful when you want it. Yay for us!” Thank you!!

Relaxed and comfortable

What a little gem. 3 of us in our 60s had a lovely relaxing week. Some attention to detail would have been helpful. The shower is over the bath which was very challenging for my husband after 2 knee surgeries and would have been good to know in advance. I enjoy a soak in a bath, but there was no plug. We couldn't find any scissors in the utensils drawer so opening food packaging was challenging. As I said, just little details. Location was great, lovely neighbours and we would happily stay again.
