Great little place, great value, in a great part of the world
For the price, this place has everything you need. Bed was extremely comfortable and kitchen was very equipped. So close to everything, only 8mins to Malanda. We even saw 3 cassowaries 200ms down the road one morning. We arrived and had complete peace and quiet for 5 glorious days. We would 100% stay again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this quaint little cottage. Very lovely and friendly hosts. The cottage was very clean, had everything we needed and in a beautiful location.
Hospitality was wonderful, beautiful little place tucked away just 5 minutes from malanda, we had a great time and would most definitely stay again!!!!!
The house is unreal, everything you need is there from kitchen, bedrooms and Bathroom. We met the owner and family and thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Very quiet, internet works well, private and spacious. LOVED IT.
It was ideal to see the table lands. Visit all the waterfalls. The only thing is we didn't like is the sitting arrangement, it only had one couch, and that was very uncomfortable. But other than that, it was perfect
Very nice Queenslander house have everything that you need for a comfortable stay we forgot a bag and the honer contact us straight away but we were too far to come back and they send the bag by mail very lovely people we may come back again Domenico and Mela
Excellent value for money accommodation in secluded location.
A quaint old building with all the necessary amenities for a comfortable stay. The bed we used was really comfortable and all the white goods are practically new and work well. The weather was very hot for our stay making it difficult for the fans to keep up, but I imagine it would be very cosy during winter with the use of the beautiful wood heater. I would thoroughly recommend this property for couples or small families requiring a place to stay in the heart of the magnificent Atherton Tablelands at a very reasonable price.
In this comfortable old Queensland cottage, my family was provided with just what we needed as a home base to unwind and relax every evening after visiting relatives in the area during the day. Everything was very clean and extremely comfortable, and the sound of nature at night and in the morning was an absolute treat! It was a delightful experience for us all, and we really enjoyed spending our time in such an authentic 'old world' setting. Thank you!
