Hugh yard space for the kids to play. The cottage was clean and modern. The kitchen was well stocked with all supplies.
Only complaint was that it’s not a 1 bedroom and should be advertised as a large studio space instead, as the bedroom is not private from the rest of the living space.

Lovely place - no wifi
The only downside was that it’s listed with wifi. Unfortunately there was none!
We loved our stay! Great instructions for arrival! Warm and cosy on arrival is what we loved!
So so happy with this beautiful little property! Thank you for the ease of instructions for arrival , cleanliness and having a nice warm place to arrive to!!
Wonderful charming cottage in an amazing location!!
This was the exact charming cottage we were looking for a weekend away! Such a wonderful close location to Olinda and Sassafras and all the gardens around!
We loved the greenery and animals of the little private courtyard and verandah! Inside was clean and sweet, couple spiders as fellow guests and the fireplace also would have been so cozy but unfortunately didn't work for us :( Otherwise we loved the full provided kitchen and appliances, and the beautiful bedding and pillows made for a cozy and easy stay!
A secluded location with a beautiful modern studio with the perfect rainfall double shower! The wildlife was great to listen to as the night cooled down, happy new year! Thanks for having us and all the small touches - Gabrielle + Aidan

We could not fault this property, was perfectly put together down to every little detail of anything the photos on the listing don’t do it justice. Would highly recommend
The whole experience from start to finish was great. The unit is private with its own entrance and garden. Beautifully decorated and cosy. I would highly recommended to family and friends, and those looking for a little getaway. Thanks Pete and Mary!
