We loved everything about this cottage and didnt want to leave to venture out for dinner because it was too cozy by the open fire. There was everything we needed and Alison couldn't have been more helpful. And the bed was amazing - we slept so well. Thoroughly recommended and we would stay again.

A little piece of Southern France
The shack was just devine, a cosy 2-3 room bungalow with an amazing open fire, perfect for those cool autumnal evenings. The privacy was excellent, but the host is close enough by "just in case". The grounds were a delight to walk around especially with the falling autumn leaves. A perfect stay.

An welcome oasis
We loved our stay at Alison and Mark's property. Restful, private space to just read and disengage from our lives for a few days, yet within easy reach of the town and surrounding townships. We really enjoyed the quality and nice touches in the cottage, from the complimentary snacks (more considered and extensive than I've encountered in other properties) and breakfast supplies to the fittings in the cottage. We'd definitely consider returning for another restful weekend away and highly recommend this property.

Wonderful place to stay
We've just come back from a fantastic stay at The Shack in Woodend. It was a lovely little cottage that was very charming and very comfortable. It was very clean and had everything you could want for a great getaway. The owner Alison has thought of it all; from the stocked fridge filled with fresh eggs, milk, fresh berries, yummy bread, homemade muesli and little bakery treats. There is an open fire which was welcome as it was a freezing weekend in Woodend. The grounds of the place are lovely too, and you are able to walk around and explore. We would highly recommend this place and we hope to be back to stay ourselves very soon.

Fantastic experience
My husband and I had a great time at The Shack. Alison was prompt and communicative in the lead up to the stay and we found the property exactly as advertised. We really appreciated the breakfast and snack options, and also our interactions with the resident golden retriever, Daisy! (Who was also very obedient and could be contained if that was an issue for others!) We loved the coziness of the fireplace and will certainly try to come back in warmer months when we can make use of the outside area.

Lovely weekend hideaway
We had a lovely weekend in this cute cottage - especially enjoyed the log fire and the beautiful breakfast items that Alison left for us. My only difficulty was not being able to stand under the shower to wash my hair as it was a fixed shower head that was quite low. Would highly recommend though.

Cosy Romantic Getaway
Amazing cosy cottage with full kitchen, separate bathroom and very comfortable queen bed. The provisions provided by Alison are more than ample for a couple. Various breakfast options including fresh bread, eggs, milk, yogurt and several cereals. Plus snack options. Could not fault anything. Meeting Alison and husband was an added bonus. Alison left extra special birthday wishes for my partner as she knew that’s why we were having our weekend stay. Highly recommend staying in The Shack.

We had a wonderful stay at The Shak, it was the cutest space, with absolutely everything to make our stay so comfortable. The breakfast hamper and treats were next level, and the bed adorned with quality linen, was so comfy. A beautiful bunch of red roses on the kitchen table just reminded me of home, they were just stunning. We would highly recommend a stay at this beautiful space in an enchanting garden, can't forget to mention Daisy, the dog, she will come over for a cuddle if you are a dog lover, or not if you aren't. Thanks Alison and Mark

Secluded cottage on a large property
Cosy cottage with lovely fresh produce for breakfast. Comfortable bed. Despite the bad weather we enjoyed our stay exploring the area. I was surprised to find that the Shack didn’t have a TV as it is not something I would check for. Being a very cold weekend it would have been nice to watch in the evening by the open wood fire. Poor internet connection.

Lovely gardens and host
Pleasant location and hosts and the only negative thing to say is the bed was uncomfortable. I don't know if its just because we have a really comfortable mattress at home and have got far to used to that level of comfort, but it made sleeping difficult unfortunately and without sleep it tarnishes the shine of all other things. And it doesn't even cost much to get a good mattress like Sleeping Duck etc these days so it's an easy problem to rectify, and we enjoyed everything else. Would have given 5 stars otherwise. Please be aware also there is limited mobile signal in the surrounding areas.

Hi Joel
Thanks for sending a review from your stay 4 months ago. I am really sorry and surprised you found the bed uncomfortable as we have never had this raised as an issue before. In fact a number of past guests have actually commented on how comfy it is.
You are right about the intermittent mobile signal throughout Woodend and surrounding areas. It can also depend which service you are with. Telstra and Optus are probably the better ones. This issue has been raised by many locals in the past with our local MP.

We had a great time staying in the shack, it was very clean, had a beautiful ambience to the room with a lovely fireplace and limited mobile connection so really great to switch off. Alison was a lovely host, she prepared a generous breakfast hamper and was very welcoming. I would love to stay again and would highly recommend.
