Stunning property right in the heart of Kangaroo valley. The place was clean and very well furnished, we had no issues finding it or checking in. The property itself was huge and made for fun walks and exploring. The bbq area and the fire pit made the evenings all that more fun. Highly recommended

We had a nice stay. The property is very close to shops and restaurants. Bit of traffic noise but it was quiet at night. The house is comfortable. We had some unseasonably warm weather and upstairs got quite hot but there were ample ceiling and pedestal fans. The bathroom is old and tired with cracked tiles and mould. Beds were great though and kitchen well equipped. The most disappointing thing was the photos of the garden on the listing do not accurately depict its current state. It’s overgrown and all the furniture around the viewing platform at the rear of the property had rotted through. The furniture nearer the house - fire pit and patio area - were safe to use though and we enjoyed a glass of wine there. Waking to birdsong was lovely but overall a bit expensive compared to other properties in the area. We had a lovely dinner at Wildes - recommended.

Gorgeous property, perfect for our weekend away. We couldn’t find the wifi information but didn’t need it anyway as there was plenty to do and we preferred to be offline.

We all loved our stay here, especially our dog and kids who loved having lots of room to explore and run around. The views from the lookout were stunning and the bush walk was great. No wombats or echidnas spotted but we did see lots of kangaroos in the neighbours field. Having the second upstairs living area was good although a shower upstairs would have made it perfect. Nice location to walk to everything. Would stay here again.

We had a lovely stay in your property, thank you. We did not put liners back in the bins, because we did not find any, we were also unable to vacuum, the vacuum was not charged, we left it plug in, we did sweep with the broom.

The property is not as advertised. Based on the photos, I expected expansive views of Kangaroo Valley (which was completely untrue) and I booked for two couples on the basis that the property had two useable showers/bathrooms. This was not the case. It is misleading that one shower is in an outside ‘room’ and basically inhabitable given it needs extensive work and is full of mould. The property has two neighbours very closeby, which is fine except I wanted a very open space with no neighbours (in line with what I saw in the pictures.) The accommodation itself was okay but definitely needs attention - broken tiles, etc. in the bathroom. Extremely disappointed overall given the price we paid.

Perfect Getaway

The cottage and location are absolutely perfect. We loved the outside fire pit and the view from the lookout on the property is absolutely spectacular. It is impossible to stay at this cottage and not unwind, relax and rejuvenate. It was exactly what we needed.

When we arrived it had been raining a lot and the house was very cold and smelt damp. Once we got the fire roaring, however, the house warmed up beautifully and it was very cosy and comfortable.House was well stocked with everything we needed. Beds comfy, house clean, garden & bushland lovely, outdoor firepit great. The bathrooms are slightly old, however, good hot water & pressure & spa works well. Highly recommend!
