My second stay at Kelpie Cottage and I just adore it. So quiet away from the main town of Mt Gambier but close enough for convenience. Everything that could be needed, plus more is provided by the hosts. Easy check-in, gorgeous location and I just love the fact that they are a rescue for Maremma Sheepdogs. Very comfortable cabin with very generous provisions which was appreciated for breakfast.I can’t speak any higher of the hosts, they love what they do and it shows. Thank you again, I’ll be back!
Wonderful cozy cottage feel with very welcoming hosts. Super pet friendly and had everything you needed for a wonderful stay. Will definitely be repeat visitors.
We absolutely loved our stay at Kelpie Cottage! It was wonderful being able to bring our furry baby along-she had the best holiday too. The cottage had everything thoughtfully prepared for both us and our dog, which we really appreciated. The beds were super comfortable, and the owners were just a phone call away and truly lovely. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay.

Good cooking facilities.There were provisions for us and lots of bedding, bowls etc. for our puppy dog.The garden looked very secure to keep our dog safe
Loved this beautiful cosy dog friendly cottage and all the extra thoughtful gestures the owners had for us when we arrived. Great enclosed yard for our dog and thoughtful dog supplies there for us to use. Very considerate hosts who thought of everything. Would highly recommend. Close to town but far enough away for the quiet and serenity!
An ideal BnB for family & pets. Heaps of food provided, to help when you arrive & following days. For a winter stay there is a wood heater, making it nice & cosy. Anyone would love staying there with their pet.
This property was lovely , just the cleanliness of the place lets it down . We stay for 5 nights and it is very dog friendly. Unfortunately the cabin was far from clean , and I’m not a neat freak.
This was the ideal property for us to base ourselves on, plenty of secure grounds for our border collie to explore. The cottage was well equipped, cosy warm fireplace and comfortable beds. Lovely touches including continental breakfast staples, chocolates, wine and doggie treats were a nice addition. Enjoyed our stay.
Very Clean, tidy and most comfortable beds, extremely pet friendly, excellent presentation of supplies in the fridge, particularly the Cadbury Favourites, and on the kitchen bench, must have known I love a good Red. Full marks to Russ & Pauline we will be back and recommend to others in the Murray River Retriever Assocation.
The property was extremly pet friendly. Had everything our dogs needed. Large safe fenced in area between the 2 properties and a smaller fully fenced on our yard. Lovely thoughtful breakfast supplies left by owners. Very easy and clear check in process. Our children and dogs were exhausted from all the fun they had.
