This was such a wonderful stay - the house is equipped with everything you need, it's cosy and comfortable, super clean, spacious and has wonderful views of nature all round. The beds are comfy and the living area is pleasant and comfortable. There are games and puzzles to play when you're not spending time watching wildlife or enjoying the outdoor pit fire amongst the trees under the stars. The owners are wonderful, caring and knowledgeable people, ready to help with any query. Cannot wait to make another visit and enjoy my morning tea watching wallabies and honeyeaters pass by.

Nice and cozy

The property was peaceful and quiet. The bed was super comfortable. We had a warm greeting from the owners who gave us a thorough run-down of everything. The facilities were cozy and rustic. A nice get-away.

Family get away in nature

We loved the gorgeous mud brick cottage Tallarook. It was set in beautiful natural surrounds, amidst much native wildlife and away from more touristy areas, so provided a peaceful get away for our family. We enjoyed some gorgeous hikes in the area and then coming back to the cottage to cook a meal and play some games. An outdoor pit toilet was an adventure that added to the experience. The hosts were fantastic with their communication and the thoughtful touches they left in the cottage. A great get away.

This is truely a retreat. No radio, clock or TV. Just the sounds of nature. A 1.6k unsealed road and a steepish drive, then the cottage is very private. About 8k from the nearest shops. (Tathra) You get used to the drop toilet which is the cleanest we have ever experienced. The internet is excellent and had Kayo on the laptop and music through our portable speaker. The induction hot plate took a bit of getting used to (for the inexperienced) and you need to plan your meals accordingly as this is the only kitchen appliance. A small portable oven would have been good. The mud brick would be cool in the summer. There were plenty of oil heaters and a pot belly we also used to warm our bread on. Pauline and Niel are terrific hosts and we were pleased to hear about their 40 year journey of the property. The property is located in a stunning area of the hinterland. You will be treated to some of Pauline's peach jam, Indian chutney, some local cheese and her home made choc chip cookies are awesome! Generous and kind hosts you need to meet!
