This was an ideal place for us and our little terrier.Warm and comfortable - a lovely space to relax.It is a really great location: walking distance to main shops and Daylesford Lake.
This is our second stay with Annie, we always feel so welcome. Check in is such a breeze, the cleaning is of such a high standard. The home has everything you need to cook, relax, have a fire and enjoy the local area. Loads of blankets and great heating so you are never cold. We stayed with our little dog and the backyard is very secure and great space to play ball. Can’t wait to come back.
Amazing work done on the inside of this quaint cottage, ideal for our time in Daylesford. Location is great, Annie the Host gave us a great time and made us feel welcome.
This is a lovely little cottage. There is a well fenced yard for dogs and an outdoor veranda for socialing in fine weather. It was freezing in Daylesford, and we were very snug inside with excellent heating and a fireplace. A very fine spot for an autumn retreat. And the bathroom is very state of the art. Much enjoyed.
If you are looking for a place close to town and has all the amenities you require and you can bring your dog, then this is the place.Had a great stay with the family.
Annie was very welcoming, and Kookaburra cottage was lovely. The dogs enjoyed the backyard, and we enjoyed the cosy living areas, comfy beds and high end bathroom. We had all that we needed, and we'll come again
The fun & relaxation started the moment we opened the front door.Warm rooms, beautiful inviting music pulled us through this cute little cottage to the open fire my husband immediately went & bought wood for.Yes it's rustic, but totally my type of stay. The bonus is the beds are extremely comfortable.My favourite part was drinking my morning coffee at the dining table and watching the parrots walking around on the pavers early in the mornings.Annie has to be one of the nicest hosts I've met to date.Giving us ideas of what to do & see.Sending us well wishes during our stay. Great communication.We will definitely be back there when I'm in need to chill out & take a stroll around the Daylesford Lake
Our third stay at Kookaburra cottage. Great location within walking distance to the Main Street and lake, plus the house is super cosy. Excellent backyard for our dogs
Annie is so welcoming and relaxed. Our stay was during a heatwave and we were to pleased to arrive and find the air conditioning was on so we arrived into a cool space. We had access to all the necessary accessories to make our stay with our dog Toby better than we had imagined. The cottage is perfect! Walking distance into Daylesford is just a 5 minute jaunt. So pleased we found kookaburra cottage and will plan another visit when it’s just a bit cooler
Charming cottage in the heart of Daylesford. Walking distance to the Main Street, Farmer’s Market, Daylesford Market and Lake Daylesford. I will certainly be coming back to stay here again.
