Gorgeous secluded cottage

This north facing sunny cottage was quaint, oh so private and beautifully presented. The wood fire came with kindling and wood provided. The shower is a few steps outside the house but almost my favourite thing. Plenty of hot water and views into the eucalyptus forest made it very special.

Weekend Bliss at the Bush Cottage

We spent the weekend at the wonderful cottage and it was just what we needed to unwind. The place was very comfortable and tucked away in a quiet spot surrounded by nature. It had everything we could possibly need and the amenities were great. One of the highlights was spotting wildlife—it made the experience even more special. Mornings were our favorite: sipping coffee, listening to birds and watching the sun rise. If you’re looking for a peaceful escape where you can just chill and soak up nature, this is the perfect place.

We spent a magical 3nts at the cabin and it couldn't have been more perfect. Anne and Alan have thought of everything. It's so comfortable with a beautiful view for coffee in bed. Location is secluded and peaceful. We will definitely be back and, in fact, didnt want to leave

Pleasant stay

Arrived at a quaint little converted train carriage with outstanding views and a beautiful warm cosy fire. Loved the outdoor shower with a view but was missing a bench for clothes to change into. The things we were disappointed in was the bar fridge (too small) no oven or microwave. Could have done with more plates and bowls. And unfortunately a slight rat problem that things in the kitchen should have been replaced. Overall it was a really nice stay and a good escape for our birthday in the country setting

Lovely trip away

We had a beautiful weekend away here! The property is stunning and right in the bush. It was a little hard to find as we arrived in the dark but was worth it. The property looked like the photos and the outdoor shower was great! The kitchen is decently stocked and the bbq works great! We would love to stay again

Loved the location and the peacefulness of the cottage. Very clean and comfortable space, had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Enjoyed listening to the birds and wildlife. Great spot if you want to visit Bundanon Museum and Art Gallery nearby. Only notes are that the listing advised “coffee maker” so expected an espresso machine. Coffee and tea was provided though which was really nice, the addition of milk in the fridge would have been a nice touch.

Great little getaway from the busy city

Nice and relaxing stay, with many options from adventuring or if your version of relaxing is wineries and breweries there is plenty to do OR just stay in and read a book with stunning views.

Off gird solace

We loved the outdoor shower and the place was fully equipped with everything you could ever need. We had a really relaxing stay however, if you aren't a fan of bugs and creepy crawlies just be sure to pack some citronella. Our favourite parts were the long, lazy mornings spent in bed with the doors open overlooking the forrest. All facilities woth a pub 10 mins down the road.
