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.

Great stay in Wallaroo

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.

We loved the little cottage. It was snug and warm, considering the 3 days of continuous rain we had. We were able to read, relax, cook and explore Wallaroo. Loved it!

Comfy, Bright and Easy

The locked key-box was a dream to open; unlike some places we've stayed in. Everything as advertised and photographed is 100% authentic. The charming cottage had a very light and comfortable aura about it. You really felt relaxing from the moment you stepped inside. A couple of small issues... No kitchen tea towel. The floors needed a good mop with hot water. Walking from the bathroom to the main bedroom, feet ended up black as spades. Maybe the cleaner is short (I'm 185cm) but the top the range hood, fridge, and dinning room cupboard was filthy. Aside from that it was a very pleasant stay.
