We had a wonderful 3-night, 4-day stay. Ada cottage was comfortable, warm, and very clean, making it easy to relax from the moment we arrived. Its central location was a big plus, with everything conveniently close by. Overall, a pleasant and hassle-free experience that I’d happily recommend.

Ada Cottage was likesomething out of a dream for me and my daughter. It was the perfect place to warm up by the fireplace while winding down in the charming and cosy surrounds. All mod cons were provided while we also felt whisked back in time, with the beautiful period detail of the cottage. The entrance driveway is rather steep, but fully sealed and very safe. There is a carport and plenty of room to turn in order to drive up and out. Our weekend was spent wandering the nearby market, discovering the many scenic walks and resting by the river. There was so much more we could have packed in, but that was enough. We were having such a great time that we decided to add an extra night to our stay. Our host was delightful to talk to and very quick to respond. The cottage was immaculate upon arrival with breakfast provided. We would definitely come back to repeat the experience. As an extra treat, we dropped into the nearby Healesville Sanctuary on our way home. We also dined at the Alpine Hotel on Sunday evening, which was excellent. Thank you Ada Cottage for the most memorable and healing weekend.

Nicely presented clean comfortable home with excellent breakfast choices. Walking distance to the village. Cons: lots of steps and definitely not suitable for elderly, disabled or young children. Very steep narrow driveway down to the home. Tricky turning my Toyota hatch around the end of the driveway. We didn’t go out after dark, couldn’t find any lighting outside.

One bathroom. 2nd bathroom has an ensuite walk in shower off the bedroom

Beautiful House

Lovely house in a beautiful location. Walking distance to the town which was very handy for food. Amazing wood fire to settle down for the evening

The house is perfect. Had everything we needed and the host provide detailed information on how to get there as well as how to get in to the house. There was provision for breakfast for a few days. The kitchen had very thing we needed. The bed was lovely and comfortable and the towels were high class. There was plenty of wood for the inside fire and when not in use the electric heater kept the house nice and cosy. Easy 10 minutes walking distance to town and shops and a 15 minute walk to the local pub. Lovely views from the front veranda and very comfortable chairs to sit and watch the world go by. Will be coming back very soon . Thank you for a great week.
