We entered the cottage with the expectation that it would be a lot smaller than it was. To our (happy) surprise, there was space galore! While the house is old, it has been well maintained. And with all the appliances and conveniences provided (including the slow combustion wood fire place), we couldn't have asked for a better place to stay during our 3-night visit.

Birthday long weekend
Had a great time exploring with mountain bike ride and bush walks not far away. The cottage was a cosy home away from home lots of birds in the front garden ,well equipped kitchen although we didn't cook much and comfortable bed . Owners were very good with communicating and sorted out early check-in. Would highly recommend a 15 /20 minute walk to winetree cider ( take a torch to walk home in winter)

COSY COTTAGE
The property is cosy and very well presented and had everything we needed for our 4 night stay. We loved the front verandah and the garden, such a beautiful place to sit with a coffee or wine and watch the bird life and admire the trees. Soooo very relaxing, even with a 3 year old as part of the group.

A cozy, neat cottage, bringing back memories of the olden days. Everything needed was there and more. The upkeep of the garden was outstanding in the area. We enjoyed sitting on the front veranda. Very enjoyable.

Quiet relaxing
Had a great stay we enjoyed the quiet still amazed by the night sky .....we don't see clear sky's like this at home ...the town or is it a village not sure ...it had everything we could need and we made use of the community bar /restaurant ...it was a short walk down to from the property. No WiFi so a walk to the information center was not a problem. We spent a lot of time sitting on the veranda.

Calm summer getaway
Beautiful heritage cottage with lots of space. Very well equipped kitchen, laundry facilities. Lovely verandah to read or enjoy a beverage on. Close walk to town centre past kangaroo sanctuary. A lovely calm spot to unwind after a frantic year (super comfy bed in master bedroom too!). Thanks Sue and Brian for a lovely stay. NB quite a few places in town shut between Xmas and New Year including Forest Heritage centre and 2 x cafes, and railway only runs on weekends, but plenty of nature based activities including Lane Poole reserve nearby. Bike park in town kept kids active too.

Perfect Retro
Loved the old timber workers cottage that has been restored lovingly and authentically, down to retaining the old concrete base of the dunny! Everything was provided for the convenience and comfort of guests, including pantry items excessive to needs. The cottage was immaculate, the beds clean and comfortable, the kitchen well stocked with dishes, pots, glasses etc. The cottage setting was close to town centre yet quiet and peaceful. Pleasant garden with ample bird life. Thoroughly enjoyed my stay! Thank you for the use of your holiday home Sue and Brian.

The cottage was just perfect. Sue and Brian have equipped it very well, and we really appreciated the little touches like having some kitchen basics and things like kitchen foil available without having to bring it all with us! Everything is well maintained, the beds are comfy and so on. We will likely stay again!

Perfect country stay
A delightful cottage nestled in a pretty flower-filled garden and surrounded by other weatherboard cottages, this was a comfortable and relaxing place to stay. The owners have gone to great lengths to anticipate our every need - from firewood and kindling to comfy cushion-filled cane chairs for resting on the peaceful verandah with a cuppa. Birdsong is the only sound in this quiet street and all the gardens nearby were bursting with spring bulbs - a beautiful sight. We loved our stay here and would recommend it highly.

Lovely town, comfortable house, happy guests
We enjoyed the amenities and the location was lovely. No complaints at all. Wood fire was a real treat and kept us snug - as did the aircon in the rest of the house. The front veranda was glorious - plenty of room, enjoyed watching the small birds, streetscape lovely with big trees, peaceful neighborhood. Booking was very straightforward. All our needs were taken care of. Recommend Woodcutters Cottage.

We loved our short weekend stay. The home was cosy and warm despite the freezing temps! Communication was good with very quick responses. The home had so many little extra's that is not usual - soaps, candles, torches, plenty of wood, essential pantry items, coffee pods, games, kitchen useful such as foil. We will definitely be back :)

Absolutely lovely cottage, cosy and very comfortable. Very well appointed with everything you need. We were a family of 6 aged between 10 and 76 and was perfect for all our needs. Lovely veranda to sit and watch the birds with a cuppa in the morning. Cottage is close enough to town that we could easily walk (including dad on his mobility scooter). Short drive into the national park and close to the mountain bike tracks for hubby and daughter. Would definitely recommend!

Tranquility
We spent two nights in this cosy cottage, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The cottage was spotless, is walking distance into the township of Dwellingup, and close to the Jarrahfall Bush Camp, where we attended a wedding. It is superbly fitted out with everything one would need for a comfortable holiday - especially the kitchen, making meal preparation so easy. Communication with the owners was quick and reliable. We would definitely stay here again, and would have no hesitation in recommending this cottage.

Quiet and well equipped cottage
We stayed in the cottage as a family of 4 (2 adults and 2 kids) with 3 bedrooms being available. This is an older cottage but equipped with modern kitchen and bathrooms with 2 toilets and all the needed appliances including dishwasher, washing machine and a dryer making the stay for a family very comfortable. Some food was also available; such as oil, salt, sugar, rice, flour plus selection of teas which was a nice bonus. The cottage is positioned in a quiet area next to other houses and about 10 mins walk to the Dwellingup town, also perfect base for mountain bike and walking trails. The bedrooms have blackout blinds as well as curtains which make the rooms pretty dark, ideal for good sleep. Sue and Brian were very responsive and we would definitely stay again.

Wonderful experience
The woodcutter cottage has exceeded all our expectations, in so many ways. From the first moment, walking in, we could see and feel how welcoming and clean is this place. We needed a place which is close to the centre to be able to walk there. That was our only requirement. I had no idea how wonderful this weekend going to be. - Veranda to sit and relax with coffee in the morning or chilled drink at night, while watching Red tailed Black Cockatoos feasting on the gum nuts - great spacious kitchen with everything we needed to prepare our meal, including much welcomed coffee machine - absolutely quiet neighbourhood Sue / Brian, thank you so much for allowing us to stay. We would love to come back one day. Silvia, Gabi, Jarmila

This property is absolutely lovely, owners have really thought of everything, all the staples plus are provided. Very peaceful place to spend some time. Highly recommend this property, I will definitely return, but next time stay longer. Beds super comfy, good quality appliances. Beautiful Blue Wrens in garden too, and a wonderful thunderstorm to cap it all off. 10 out of 10. I did not deal with a Property Manager hence my rating.

We really enjoyed our stay. It was quite cold but having reverse cycle aircon during the day as needed and then the warmth of a wood fire at night was really terrific. You can't beat a wood fire. Everything we needed was there and this made the stay very enjoyable. Also being an hour and a half from home is handy. All up good value for money!

RURAL BLISS
The family, and I in particular, love getting away to rural settings on a regular basis. We go away on average, about 5 times a year. We couldn't have had a better break, and couldn't fault a single thing. Cleanliness, comfort (heating, even in the bathroom!!,) and the wonderful log fire (enough wood for the whole neighbourhood) Never seen a DRYER, even in fancier places, HEAPS of crockery/cutlery.. even olive oil and breakfast 'sides'.. the list goes on. I cannot commend the hosts enough for their care and generosity.(I ALWAYS carry extra toilet rolls.. didn't have to use them). Just one suggestion.. it might be a good idea to get a really rough, hard-wearing outside front doormat, particularly in the wet weather. We were especially conscious of scraping (and scraping ) our feet many times... every time we entered the house. WE WILL BE BACK FOR SURE!!
