Had a lovely stay at the cottage last weekend! The only thing was the time it took to fill the bath lol while I worried the hot water was going to run out all my worries washed away when I was soaking in a hot bath! Thank you, will definitely be back!
This property was a really lovely escape. It was well furnished and to a high standard although the mattress in the second bedroom was very firm and the shower probably needs updating.We really enjoyed the thoughtful gestures from the owner - nespresso machine and dog friendly being two very welcome bonuses.The garden is full of grass binidis which got stuck in our shoes and in the dogs paws, just for awareness. Also it suited us just fine but there is no wifi.Communication with the owner was friendly and easy, and the location was perfect just a short stroll to Dunolly bakery.

Lovely cottage in the heart of the Golden Triangle
Beautifully decorated 2 bedroom cottage, close to town centre. Perfect location for our mini getaway. Central location ideal for exploring gold mining history and prospecting adventures. We’ll definitely stay again.

Our cottage in Dunolly was very comfortable and suited our stay that involved a long weekend of events in the gold mining towns of the Loddon Shire.This is an area that is often left off the radar and am glad we had the opportunity to check it out.
A great little cottage with plenty of room and great amenities. Very comfortable and right in the centre of the central Goldfields and only a short drive to Maryborough, Avoca and lots of other little towns to visit while basing yourself in historic Dunolly
