Very Serene location with lake and bush style cottage living feel. Very friendly host who bakes the best bread. Cottage is large, allowing kids to have their own time. Large SPA-bedroom-bathroom-Kitchen-Sunroom was all on point. Definitely recommend for a relaxing family getaway in nature.

Me, my partner and our little baby stayed here for Father’s Day. We had a great stay! The gardens were beautiful, and the jetted spa was great. We also enjoyed our breakfast supplies and our freshly baked loaf of bread. Kaye was really helpful with anything that we needed. We would definitely stay here again!

Relaxing stay at the Lakeside cottage

An amazing stay overall with plenty of activities to do around the area. Kaye is very kind and provided us with fresh bread and lots more stuff for breakfast. She gave a tour of house while checking in and showed us how the TV and Netflix works. The spa was beautiful and relaxing.

Absolutely loved this wonderful little cottage. It had all the amenities we needed and beautifully well-kept grounds where we enjoyed peaceful walks during the day. Kaye was an amazing host and stocked our fridge with yummy breakfast food + baked the most delicious fresh bread on arrival! Could not have asked for better service. We felt so relaxed and zen after our little getaway, will definitely be back.

Hidden gem in Kilsyth

Couldn't believe our eyes as we drove into the driveway. The garden was absolutely mind blowing and the cottage was perfection. We had planned to go out for dinner but decided to get some groceries and eat in. Spa bath with rose petals was a highlight. It was our dream home and we're considering getting married there

An oasis in suburbia

what a fantastic setting, and what a fantastic cottage with all amenities for complete relaxation or romantic get away. Whilst it will be a great venue in summer we liked it snug inside the lounge near the fire watching a DVD on the reclining sofa , or in the spa (with its own external room heating and lighting effects) when the weather was inclement outside The breakfast provisions were extensive and the owner rightly takes great pride in her property in top condition. The owner was also available for any assistance at any time, not that we needed any as she had thought of everything. My partner said it was the best venue we had been too where all you want to do is be together in comfort and relax

Absolutely stunning property with all mod cons. Delightful sunroom, we had morning tea and breakfast in there. Plenty of space to spread out, very private, with many wonderful features, too many to list! I loved the separate bathroom from spa/bedroom(it's just outside bedroom), there was Loads to eat.
