Super secluded getaway

Very nice stay, beds were a bit uncomfortable but wasn’t bad enough to ruin our stay. Also remember to bring bug spray because we all got eaten alive

Cosy cottage in a perfect location

What a wonderful place to stay! The cottage was cozy, had everything we needed, and in a perfect location, in the bush, but still so close to everything........so peaceful and serene. Loved the fireplace!! ❤ Also cooking breakfast on the outdoor BBQ after going for a morning walk amongst the surrounding nature. I would stay here again, and highly recommend it. We had a fabulous weekend in the Hunter Valley! Thanks Daniel

Great Location

The property was in an excellent location and we enjoyed the privacy we had from our neighbours. The place was a short drive to various wineries and restaurants in town which made it a very convenient place to stay. Daniel was also very easy to contact and communicate with.

Beautiful hideaway

This is a lovely little cabin with big verandah’s which were great for the wet weather we had. The grounds are beautiful and peaceful with lots of trees and kangaroos. The cottage is cosy and clean. There is no oven or microwave which didn’t matter to us as we likes using the big bbq. Will definitely stay again.

Hi Annette Thanks for staying with us and for taking the time to write a review. There actually is a microwave oven in the kitchen elevated on the wall next to the fridge so not sure if you missed this as it blends in with the rest of the appliances. Thanks again for your stay and we are glad you had a lovely time. We hope to welcome you again soon Daniel

Great spot for a getaway

We enjoyed our stay greatly. Really appreciated the location - very near vineyards + other attractions, yet in a secluded bush spot with a lot of space for our teens to chuck the frisbee. The flying fox was a big hit. Would definitely stay here again.

The Cottage in Lovedale

We enjoyed our winter stay discovering new venues along Lovedale Road including Binnorie Cheese, The Smokhouse on Majors Lane and Andina Olive Tasting. The Sabor Dessert and Wine bar is excellent. Many places are closed mid week but with a 3 night stay we eventually saw everything on our list. The cottage is a lovely rustic, quiet, secluded place down a well maintained dirt road with plenty of wood on the property to gather sticks for our winter slow combustion fire. Thank you for our stay.
