Cosy perfection in the Yarra Valley

Enda Cottage surpassed our expectations. Pulling into the driveway my family immediately gasped ‘I love it’. Every nook in every room was a trove of delights. It feels inviting and cosy, yet surprisingly spacious. It had everything on hand we could possibly have wanted as well as super comfy beds and awesome water pressure in both bathrooms. The heating was easy to use and extremely effective. Edna Cottage is a winner and we’ll be back!

Sisters Trip to Healesville

All the little touches were lovely and really appreciated by us. We were very unlucky that a storm hit on our first night. The Host had good instructions on what to do if there is a power outage, we easily found the torch, lighter and lots of candles. Due to the heat of the night and no power we tried to open doors and bedroom windows to get some cool breeze but there were no screens on these, the mosquitoes were really bad so we couldn't open them. Unfortunately the mattresses in second bedroom and on single beds were too uncomfortable for us. Overall it is a lovely place, great carport, great outdoor area and a lovely house. Healesville is a lovely place to explore.

Cosy, comfy, great location

The cottage was perfect for a girls weekend away for 3 mum's. Plenty of space, very comfy beds, 2 big bathrooms, nice lounge. Ducted heating was well used on the very chilly nights/mornings. Breakfast provisions were very much appreciated to remove the need to rush out to get breakfast every morning, tea, coffee, juice supplies were amazing too.We loved it and would highly recommend.

Cute, comfortable stay in a great location

We stayed at Enda Cottage for a weekend while we attended a wedding in the area. The home was so cute and our host left us a lot of helpful little goodies that made the stay very comfortable, including milk, bread and breakfast. This home could easily fit 6 and is well appointed to handle this number of guests.

Quiet and comfortable

I visited with my sister for a weekend away. It was very comfortable and clean. All you need to be self sufficient with lots of personal touches. Great communication from the owner. Lots of room for a family but teens may not like no wifi (parents may appreciate it though lol). Thanks for a wonderful, hassle free trip.

About the host

Hosted by Vikki Chandler

Host profile image
I am in a great place in my life. New partner, new business venture, life is good. I grew up in Healesville and love the Yarra Valley with a passion. I am so happy to be able to share my beautiful Cottage with travellers and give them a great place to relax after exploring all that the Valley has to offer.

Why they chose this property

I lived at Enda Cottage for 5 years and slowly painted and did some interesting decorative finishes to the place. When I moved in with my partner, I just knew that this is what I wanted to do with the place... It is just to beautiful to sell, and I absolutely love being able to let other people enjoy this beautiful home.

What makes this property unique

When I was looking for a place to buy, I was walking past with my friend and noticed the beautiful tree in the front yard, and then looked further and fell in love with the house. As soon as I walked into the place I just knew that I wanted to live there. The place had been lovingly restored by the previous owners, and then I added all my quirky little touches, and re painted the interior. My partner and I re designed the kitchen and added some special touches to the back deck.
