The Speckled Nest was one of the prettiest studios located in the beautiful historic town of Millthorpe. Paul and Anita thought of everything which made our stay enjoyable, peaceful and hassle free. Lee and I had a marvelous time.

A very comfortable and pleasant stay. We were able to check in earlier than advertised and were welcomed with chocolates and a bottle of wine. Paul was very helpful and made a special effort to accommodate our needs. We would have preferred a bit more natural light in the cottage, but everything else was perfect.

This house is cosy but don’t be fooled, it’s not as small as the pics make it out to be!The hosts were communicative and helpful, and the location a short walk to everything in Millthorpe. We had such a lovely time, we couldn’t recommend this space more highly.

We enjoyed our stay in Milthorpe & found the Museum excellent. A cook top would have been appreciated as we didn’t want to eat out all the time.

The Speckled Nest was truly wonderful! The accomodation was far more spacious than we had anticipated. It was very clean, generously well-stocked (even a bottle of Tamburlaine wine and some chocolate), and comfortable. Anita and Paul also recommended several restaurants and local things to do ahead of our stay which we really appreciated. We had a lovely stay in Millthorpe and would highly recommend anyone to stay here!

We had a lovely stay at The Speckled Nest. As an interior designer I was appreciative of the quality of the furnishings/decor. Loved the proximity to town and truly enjoyed the bottle of local wine awaiting for us upon our arrival. Also a big fan of the secluded back area, along with their landscape that draws your eye up to the front porch and encapsulates you in the rear of the property.
