Relax to the sounds of the creek and birdlife in the rainforest at Jamberoo

Falls Cottage was built by a Jamberoo local in the 1980s and has grown in charm and character with every passing year. Its current owners have lovingly restored it with a country cottage kitchen, hand crafted interior finishes, a comfortable mezzanine bedroom and a deck and barbeque area to maximise guests’ enjoyment of the beautiful rainforest surrounds.

The space:
The cottage is a private, self-contained hideaway set on two acres beside the creek and separated from the main house by a grassy field, hill and tree cover. The cottage features a highly functional kitchen with a four burner stove, microwave, tea and coffee provisions including a Nespresso machine, as well as a small kitchen table and chairs. The cottage has been restored to reflect the local flora and fauna. Guests will enjoy a welcome breakfast basket delivery with fresh eggs from the free range chickens on site, a range of preserves, granola, fresh fruit and yoghurt, and a choice of bread. Afternoon arrivals will be welcomed with homemade treats.. The mezzanine bedroom with railed galley stairs is a cosy and comfortable sleeping space, while the sitting area beneath is the perfect place to relax and unwind with a book or one of the movies or board games provided. The front deck is the perfect place to enjoy the morning sun and the beautiful rainforest surrounds with the sound of the Minnamurra river and the birdlife, There is an outdoor setting and Weber barbeque at guests' disposal. The cottage has effective heating and cooling options for cool and warm days. Please note the wood burning stove is not up to current safety standards therefore not usable, but the cottage is lovely and warm with an effective electric heater and electric blankets for winter . It has a lovely cosy feel.

Other things to note:
Please note the mezzanine bedroom is only accessible by the railed galley steps which are steep. Lola, our dog and several chickens are on the property.
The cottage and the whole property including outdoor areas are strictly no smoking . Thank you for your cooperation with this .

Lovely and relaxing
My partner and I had the pleasure of staying at this fantastic cottage over the Easter break. This was the perfect spot for a nice relaxing, stress-free get away. We were treated to a welcome basket of breakfast food and Easter eggs which was very thoughtful. The chickens roaming the place was a entertaining sight too. The cottage had everything we needed and more. Highly recommended as it's very close to Minnamurra falls which was also very nice. Hopefully we can come back soon. Thanks Allison

Cosy Cottage Stay
We had a lovely stay here. The sounds of the rainforest were very relaxing. Falls cottage instantly felt homely and warm. The hosts are lovely, and they left a delicious cake and breakfast basket which has set them apart from other stays for us. We really enjoyed our time here.

Wonderful getaway spot
We had a fantastic stay at the cottage! The fresh bread, mussels, yoghurt, orange juice and eggs provided made for a wonderful breakfast. The creek behind the cottage was gorgeous and it was so relaxing falling asleep to the creek sounds. So many birds right outside the cottage was also a big plus!
