Great Location & Close to Everything you need

The cottage was a beautiful home away from home. With all the necessary items to create a very self contained stay. The bonus of games, toys, & DVD's was fun adn very enjoyable for our son. Coming home was a welcome and comfortable relief after a days expeditions. The AC is perfect and allowed us to be comfortable with the heat of the summer. Overall an amazing stay and will head back if we are in the area again :)

Great get away!

Great spot for a getaway. The house had everything we needed. However outside area was not kid friendly. Walls must of been thin as could hear everything outside, especially in the morning. Would have been good if we had at least one shelf to use in the freezer upon arrival as it was full of food from previous people. Recycle bin would have been great to use while there. Overall it was a great holiday. PS thanks for the tim tams

Finally a place to stay that has pots and pans, knives that actually cut, and is clean when you walk in the door. We just found the beds uncomfortable, but overall this is a well set up little cottage that you don't enter and go ohhhh it's not clean. For weekend stays a lovely little spot.Dont let the outside put you off it's the comfort's of home on the inside that matter.

Ideal getaway

Rumbelow cottage has everything you need, right when you need it! Small but tastefully decorated and well appointed, Rumbelow cottage was an ideal launching point for Granite Island, the bluff and the festivities in Victor Harbour. We were able to easily cook meals, stay warm and enjoy the views of the bay. Would stay again 👍

Lovely place with a cracking view!

This place was perfect for a last minute affordable getaway and even had a perfect view of the sun rise over the sea in the morning. There was great communication booking within 24hours, I cannot fault hardly anything considering the price and really appreciate the owners for not over pricing their accommodation which makes familys like ours forget the idea of visiting such lovely places. ***** from us and many thanks Chris and family!
