A lovely cottage with all the comforts. Plenty of places to eat out for brunch or lunch. A grab rail in the shower would be handy for elderly people like us.CheersRichard

The perfect cosy stay.

Mum and her partner had a wonderful 2 night stay. Both are in their 80s, and found the property had everything they needed. The couch was very comfortable and the place was ultra clean.They look forward to rebooking later in the year.

Cosy & Convenient

We enjoyed this cottage and would recommend it to others. We appreciate the very comfortable bed and enough heating for the very cold nights, plus being pet-friendly for our whippet. Plenty of condiments was nice also, but there was no microwave container. Secure undercover parking with roller door was great. The BBQ was very dusty & unclean as were the bicycles so we didn’t feel comfortable using these things unfortunately.Overall, we would stay there again but a couple of improvements would really tick all boxes.

Good location

Cozy home. Nicely decorated. Couldn't work out where how to get keys - it differed from written instructions. Did not have any communication with owner as no need. Aircon didn't reach bedrooms in the 2 x 38 degree days we stayed there and the fans weren't up to par, but that would be a rare occurrence. Safely fenced for our little doggo - very happy with that. Secure car parking for 4 WD. A bit dusty inside and out. The shower cubicle does not drain well at all. I'd say it needs to be unblocked. Neighbours down road were very nice and gave us some plants. All in all a nice and comfy stay.

Cottage was nice plenty of room. i suppose the only criticism i had was that the shower drain was blocked full of hair which we removed best as we could .And the present of ants mainly around doorway frames kitchen and lounge but other than that we enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful quaint cottage

Lovely place to chill & relax. Beautifully decorated. Would have given 5 stars but soap dispenser in bathroom was almost empty so we had to buy our own. Would have been nice to sit outside but chairs too hard & rusty. Even plastic chairs would be nicer.

quaint,

Qaint, comfortable old cottage, but could have been cleaner e g we could'nt use the bbq as it was too dirty, and the out side tables were nit clean, nor the front porch. However, the location is fine and overall the cottage was comfortable and made for an enjoyable stay.

Amazing Stay in Wallaroo!

I rented the proper for a longer period and I couldn’t recommend staying here enough! It was in a great location, the place was clean and incredibly homely, and Amber was so easy to communicate with. It made the stay stress free! If you’re thinking of booking this property, don’t think twice!!! You won’t regret it.

Cozy & comfortable cottage.

We enjoyed our 4 night stay with our dog & agree with the other reviews on this property. In addition, the skylights in 2 rooms were great for providing natural light & the secure & spacious carport was appreciated. Amber was easy to communicate with.

The property is well located, only a few minutes walk to shops in town. It’s clean and cozy and has all the amenities you’d need. The securely fenced yard is ideal if you’re brining a dog.
