Really lovely tasteful cottage in perfect location with easy access to central Orange. Very comfortable and and a well fitted out kitchen. We highly recommend this cottage.
A very nice place to stay, close to shops, pubs and restaurants. Everything was lovely, clean and welcoming. The house held its warmth and the fireplace was wonderful.
Very warm, inviting and beautifully appointed cottage conveniently located to town. We found everything in perfect order and really enjoyed our stay. A perfect winter escape.
A beautifully styled and appointed cottage. Everything that you could possibly need for has been provided. Welcoming and warm, our stay was extremely comfortable.
We thoroughly enjoyed our weekend in Orange and staying at Liddy and Gordon's house was just perfect. Location was ideal and the house itself was beautiful and perfect for our country weekend away. Greats hosts and very accommodating will definitely come back again. Thank you.
Cottage 79 was just perfect. It has been tastefully renovated and has everything for a comfortable stay. The external part of the property is also guaranteed to provide for a peaceful and comfortable holiday. I was also impressed by the ease in which the home was heated for the cold Orange mornings. Is definitely on my list for a return visit.

cottage 79
Inside was very good. Very comfortable bed & very clean bathroom.
It was disappointing however to arrive & be confronted by 2 very large pots of DEAD flowers at the front door. Not welcoming.
Also it took us fully 5 minutes to get the key to open the front door - that needs to be fixed urgently. These things really ruin your reputation & are unfortunate if you are advertising the property as 5 star rating.

Superb stay
From the moment we pulled up at 79 Hill street we knew this would be a memorable stay. The cottage was all we could have hoped for as we gathered for our extended family Christmas in Orange. Stylishly decorated with delightful Christmas touches, thoughtfully equiped with all the appliances and products we could need and generously stocked with champagne, fruit, bread etc we immediately relaxed into a delightful stay we will long treasure. It was hard to leave, and the late check out was very much appreciated as we said our farewells ahead of the return trip down the Lachlan Valley Way. Sincere thanks to kind and generous hosts Liddy and Gordon.

A lovely comfortable cottage, near the centre of everything
The cottage is quaint and beautifully renovated. We were extremely comfortable and able to share a pre-wedding catch up with a couple of fellow guests who were staying opposite at de Russie. It made for a lovely, friendly and relaxing weekend. Liddy left us some very thoughtful touches in the kitchen which added to the welcome we felt as we settled in.

Beautiful cottage stay in Orange
We came to Orange for the Apple Festival in early May, which was really enjoyable. Cottage 79 was fantastic, beautifully appointed, even better than the photos, the garden in particular was a highlight. Everything was spotlessly clean, and Alan was a very welcoming host. We really enjoyed our stay - the location right in the middle of Orange was perfect. We would definitely stay there again next time we are in Orange.

Great location
We enjoyed our stay at this lovely cottage that has been sensitively renovated to a high standard by the owners. Comfy king bed, roomy shower and fully equipped modern kitchen. The cottage is well located with quality restaurants within walking distance. Made doubly pleasant by the personal attention of the owners.

Gorgeous Cottage and perfect location!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Cottage 79. Alan and Michelle went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and to ensure we had a great stay in Orange. They have done an incredible job with renovating the Cottage and we were simply in awe. Despite Orange snowing over the weekend the cottage remained very warm and we hardly felt the cold (not to mention the heated tiles in the bathroom were a true delight!). We will definitely be recommending Cottage 79 to our friends and family!

Thank you for sharing your experience and the positive review of the cottage. The snowfall in Orange was beautiful, however the chill also provided an opportunity to appreciate the fire and underfloor heating. We are delighted that you remained cosy and hope you will return soon.

Cosy yet stylish
Cosy,comfortable yet stylish cottage a few minutes walk from the main street of Orange. This gorgeous cottage is beautifully appointed with great attention to detail to ensure you enjoy your stay. The garden is an added bonus as its just a delightful space. When we arrived we were warmly greeted by the owner who had the fire blazing to ensure the cottage was warm and cosy. There was fresh milk and bread in the well stocked kitchen and lovely complimentary toilettries in the bathroom. The heated floor and towel rail in the bathroom made it extra nice and the shower head and water pressure were excellent. It is very obvious that Alan and Michelle really care about their guests having a great experience - we definitely will be back .
