Summary:
Welcome to Parkland Garden Retreat, proudly hosted by Cosmo Homes.

Enjoy dignified and luxurious living with access to Bendigo’s centre. High ceilings, two living areas, and a spacious backyard make this the perfect stay for travelling families or larger groups.

The Space:
Step into our inviting three-bedroom retreat. The first two bedrooms boast queen-size beds, while the primary has a spacious walk-in wardrobe and an ensuite for added convenience. Meanwhile, the third bedroom features a bunk bed with a double bed on the bottom and a single bed on top, catering to families with infants and including a baby cot. Ceiling fans adorn every room, ensuring optimal airflow throughout this charming abode.

The generously sized kitchen is outfitted with high-quality appliances and ample cookware, ideal for whipping up delicious home-cooked meals. Revel in the convenience of a gas-lit stovetop, a sizable kitchen island, and a breakfast bench with stool seating. Step outside to the outdoor entertainment area, complete with a pizza oven—just remember to bring your own wood and supplies.

Relax and unwind in front of the expansive TV, perfect for cozy family movie nights. Alternatively, savour quality moments with loved ones, whether lounging on the couch or enjoying the open-plan space.

While we warmly welcome groups of up to seven guests, we ask that you refrain from hosting events or conducting business activities on the premises.

Other Things to Note:
**Security Deposits**

We place a temporary AUD 500 authorisation hold on your credit or debit card from two days prior to check-in. This is not a charge; it simply ensures funds are available if needed. The hold is released within 3-7 days of check-out, provided the property is in good condition. A small bank processing fee (typically around AUD 2) may apply. Banks require us to renew the authorisation hold weekly. Security deposits may vary for more extensive listings. Please check the specific listing details for any variations.

**Damage Waiver (Optional)**
For some bookings, you may have the option of a non-refundable damage waiver instead of the security deposit. This is a smaller percentage of the security deposit amount. You can choose either the security deposit or the damage waiver during the booking process, depending on availability. The damage waiver covers limited accidental damage to the property or its contents, such as broken dishes or minor spills. The damage waiver does not cover intentional damage, theft, or loss of property.

Please see our Rental Policy for more information regarding our damage protection policies.
