Tranquillity, in a beautiful setting
Great loaction, close enough to everything you need but just perfect for a truly rural getaway in a charming character cottage full of history. Clean and tidy, everything you need for a homestay. We were lucky enough to have see emus in the paddocks along with many other birds in the garden. Highly recommended for some peace and quiet and connection to nature rather than the internet!

Family friendly cottage
Cottage was very clean with super comfy beds! Beautiful decor and all the kitchen ware needed for our large group. Spacious bedrooms, two porches so we were not tripping over each other. Good selection of board games and DVDs (phones took a back seat). Nice big country kitchen to sit and share meals. Highly recommend this property

Cute cottage
It was the cutest little cottage. Very vintage. It’s a shame we only stayed two nights. It was very well equipped with what we needed. And in-spite of it being cold, they did have electric blankets. Lovely fire and lovey morning view off the verandah. Had a high chair as well as a travel cot. We didn’t realise this and had our own. But great if you are coming and don’t want to drag all the paraphernalia of a baby. Enclosed outdoor area, which makes it safe for the toddler. I would definitly recommend.

Beautiful, welcoming character home in forest
We stayed in the stunning Swallows Cottage this week, it was impeccably presented with every little attention to detail. It is a gorgeous character home on a working farm amongst the forest just near Witchcliffe. The beauty of the surrounds cannot be captured in photos. The kitchen is very well set up with oven, microwave, toaster, kettle (filled and ready for a cuppa) and everything you could possibly need. The beds were comfortable and the whole home was lovingly set up for a warm welcome to guests. Lots of games, books, entertainment on offer (no wifi but Telstra worked very well on the property to hotspot from phone). Quick drive into town or the nearby Witchcliffe “strip” . We will definitely be back!

In love with this cottage
We absolutely loved this quaint little cottage waking up in the morning to the sound of sheep passing by the beautiful little self contained garden with fairy wrens darting in and out of the bird baths. It’s like visiting your nannas house it’s just so cute and relaxing. A lovely little homestead.
