Audrey Cottage was the perfect place to unwind after exploring Dunolly and surrounding areas.A beautiful cottage, full of character, really felt like a home. It had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay.We loved the wood heater! So warm and cosy inside when the nights were chilly.Located a short distance from the main street meant an easy walk with the pooch to the amazing Dunolly bakery and a shorter drive to the Railway Hotel for a delicious evening meal. Thank-you Alicia for a wonderful stay.

A trip through history

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.
