House was centrally located. Easy walk to shopping centres. Totally pet friendly. Clean as a whistle. Well stocked with everything that we needed for a lovely relaxing stay.
Karen was very accommodating the place was lovely and clean. Very quiet neighbourhood and central to everything in the area the pool was a bonus. There was even a welcome pack with bread, tea, coffee, butter & milk. Would definitely stay again.

Thank you so much for the great review, we love our old little cottage and it’s always reassuring when guests do especially the pool. You would be most welcome anytime, see you soon we hope ☺️
The most perfect home away from home! My husband, son and & I spent 9 nights at this cute little cottage. Fabulous communication from the moment we booked to the day we left. The little extras of the welcome gifts was much appreciated. Comfy beds & very spacious. Easy to get to and from the theme parks and other attractions. Shopping centre close by. We loved the fact it had a pool which we used almost daily! We will definitely keep this property in mind for future travels to the GC!
This was the perfect little cottage for us! Pool was a favourite for me and swam most days. The outside area was fabulous for bbq and beers while our boys enjoyed the pool. Bed’s comfy and house clean. Thanks for all the little extras too!

Oh no !! Would have helped you with the TV if you had mentioned that you were having an issue, we saw your husband twice and he said everything was great. Would have loved to have sorted this out for you so you could have enjoyed your TV time
Most things about the house were great it is just a little bit old which is cute but the bathroom door wouldnt close so that made having a shower not so private and i also felt that it was rather over priced for the 3 days i stayed and the condition of the house. Also the bbq has seen better days with the flame grilled side the burners wouldnt even work.
Great little cottage with everything you need. Neat and tidy , great location, close to everything you’d want to see.
Our little dogs were comfortable and enjoyed the stay too.

About the host
Hosted by Karen G
A seasoned host, consistently maintaining high standards to ensure my guests have the best time staying in my Cottages. I love the outdoors, and travelling, the Gold Coast is the most wonderful place to live. If you can't live here then why not visit, plan a trip soon.
Why they chose this property
Both of my cottages have the most welcoming atmosphere, they are full of character, and set up to ensure that you get the most from your stay, they are holiday homes that add to the whole experience. The cottage is more traditional and bright and fun, and the lodge is new and fresh with a good dose of luxury.
What makes this property unique
Home from home - completely! We have tried to think of everything that you might need. You are independent, each home is completely detached, with own driveway, and small gardens. There might be cheaper options out there but they rarely compete with the value for money we offer.
