Clean and modern cottage
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.

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!
