Privacy plus

As we were attending a wedding in Sorrento over a weekend Di's place was perfect. We were out all days but had a lovely comfy bed to come back to. We ate out all the time but there is coffee making facilities, a large fridge, microwave and toaster if you get peckish. The bathroom/toilet is small but functional and water is lovely and hot. The outdoor yard is partly shaded for dogs which is great. Great value for money.

Beautiful cottage and lovely host

Our stay at this lovely cottage was short and sweet, which was a shame because the place felt homey and the backyard was glorious. It’s the perfect summer getaway. We had absolutely everything we possibly needed to make our stay enjoyable. Thanks Di for going above and beyond for us during our stay, we hope to return soon!

Petite Cottage

Due to the poor weather for the time we stayed meant more time at the cottage. That situation proved the cottage to be a bit small under the circumstances and became a bit claustrophobic

Great use of space, super comfy couch and bed

Di's place was charming, and super clean. Perfect for our girl's weekend. We slept so comfortably, and enjoyed the extra comforts such as milk, tea, coffee, cookies snd Foxtel. Great location, close to Blairgowrie and Rye. Highly recommend.

Not good enough!

Cottage was neat and tastefully decorated, but comfort was very basic. No value for money, since it is only one room and bathroom. The base charges were acceptable, but the added service- and cleaning charges were not, especially since the property had not have a dusting in month. There was dust in the tv unit, on the furniture handles and fluffy dust patches under the bed. If you take extra charges just for cleaning, you expect the property to be spotless!

Lovely little cottage beautifully decorated with a homely feel

Very dog friendly with its own small private garden area for the dogs. Very clean, had everything required for our stay. Lots of books/magazines, WIFI and foxtel. Peaceful at night with the occasional possum jumping down onto the roof😆 Our host was very friendly and helpful with questions about the region. Would stay here again in the future!

Great hospitality from Di

We had a quick getaway booked but unfortunately the weather was terrible during out stay. It was nothing else but rain, wind and cold. Di was very welcoming though. She gave us a tour of the cottage and even had the heater on for us. She was quick to respond to any questions we had during the stay. The cottage itself was comfortable and cosy. It had everything in it that we needed to stay indoors all day with. Bonus that the bed was also super comfy. The backyard was alsp plenty for our staffy to run and play in, and it's all secure, so no chance for our escape artist to sneak out for an adventure. Overall, super happy with our stay. We would definitely be back in the future

A little disappointing

I was disappointed that some of the furniture items had altered compared to the photos. This completely changed the mood and feel of the space. The property smelt and felt damp. Foxtel was OK if you watched TV, but to download a movie seemed to take longer than I would have expected - I gave up after 15 minutes.

Di and her husband were lovely. My dogs also had a lovely stay. Di was so understanding of my very large and energetic puppy. The enclosed yard was a godsend, I even managed to relax and watch a movie which is rare for me. Thank you so much!

Really enjoyed my stay, only regret that it was too short. Lots to see and do in the area. Di was lovely, the rooms were clean, comfortable and cosy. Hope to go back sometime soon. Did not wind up bringing my dog, but she would have been very much at home.
