Perfect for us

Very comfortable cottage. Perfect for a couple of mature women who like bushwalking and a bit of space to themselves. A highlight was the king parrot and family that visited each day.

It was terrific to host such lovely guests who were appreciative of the nature and local bird and wildlife, and who left the cottage in great shape on check-out. Amelia is welcome to book again for future nature break anytime.

Delightful stay

We recently enjoyed 2 nights at this beautiful cottage. It was very well equipped with everything we wanted/needed, was comfortable, quiet and secluded. Parrots and rabbits dropped in to visit, the town is only a short drive away and we enjoyed a lovely meal at the pub. Highly recommend.

Cozy and peaceful

Bundanoon is a beautiful part of the highlands. Deb’s property is easy to access but also very private and peaceful. The house was very comfortable. Nice bedding and linens. Cottage decor is very sweet. Our favourite part was sitting on the back verandah overlooking the gardens and bushlands, listening to the birds.

Lovely cottage in peaceful setting

We had a wonderful three nights in this cozy cottage in a peaceful setting, but only short walk to the village to the shops, cafes, pub, etc. Also easy to access longer walks in the Moreton National Park. We most enjoyed quiet afternoons/evenings on the back veranda listening to/watching the many birds. Kitchen has everything one needs and the cottage was spotless. Easy communication with the host. We look forward to returning!

Lovely Cottage

Wonderful stay at a delightful cottage set in a quiet street. not far from Bundanoon township. Warm and cosy with all the amenities you could ask for. Lovely garden and yard area, even though a little cool for us to use. Kitchen was very well equipped with lots of crockery, glasses and tablewear. Bed comfortable with electric blanket which was needed for May. Highly recommended

Lovely little cottage locked away in “sleepy” Bundanoon.

A nice quiet getaway about 1klm from shops and other amenities. Good quiet location with an “upstairs downstairs” sleeping option for the two of us! Had to keep the fire going during the wet weather!!
