The Cottage at Huntley

The cottage was easy to find as the host had sent clear concise instructions. When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised to find the little cottage was exactly as described. Everything was provided for us to enjoy our brief stay, the yard was fully fenced so our mini schnauzer Coco could come and go from inside as she pleased and she even got to chat with the household chickens. All round a very homey, secure place that I would recommend.

Gorgeous little cabin

Fabulous hosts and a lovely little cabin, just perfect for myself and my deaf/blind dog who was attending a scent work trial nearby the following day. After a long drive, the small yard was perfect for my dog to explore while I unloaded our things and then I took her out into the bigger yard for an explore while being supervised by the chickens! The kitchen was perfect, the whole cabin was extremely clean, the bed was comfortable and the decking area just perfect for an autumn evening in the sunshine. Overall, a perfect experience and such kind and wonderful hosts.

Perfect for a quiet and serene, self-contained country stay. Plenty of chooks, rabbits, galahs and very respectful owners (left us to ourselves). The unit is very tidy with tasteful finishes and everything we needed, including a great set of DVDs. Fresh eggs were a very welcome flourish.
