Quiet Adelaide cottage

We had a delightful stay in this lovely three bedroom cottage. The house was clean and comfortable with good air conditioning for the hot Adelaide summer. It accommodated six adults really well and we enjoyed the outdoor dining space and the convenience of the location.

Perfect location and little oasis near the city

We needed a house to stay with the family and little pup for a week while our daughter played in an AFL carnival at different grounds in Adelaide. The cottage was the perfect location for us and was so nice to come home to every night to.

Comfortable heritage house in a good location

Overall was a great stay, location was quiet while also being a short walk to Norwood and the Maylands hotel.Unfortunately the laundry had a bit of a smell that permeated through the house when you forget to keep the door closed.Also, while there is ample street parking, the "on site" car park is small, and if someone parks on the street opposite you won't be able to get out.

Comfortable

Great location, comfortable stay however property needs some updating - old tv couldn’t stream, old oven dials popped off, terrible design of bath/shower resulting in excess water overflowing onto floor/around toilet. Owner unexpectedly just turned up and nosey neighbor next door did same - all a bit odd.

Old world Adelaide with modern amenities

A beautifully updated classic 19th century Adelaide bluestone cottage, set in an area of similar heritage. It was lovely to walk the dogs and explore the area's heritage. The cottage is located only a short walk from the local pub for a nice meal, public transport to get you to the city and various shops and cafes. The cottage itself feels large and the back garden is stunning. My dogs enjoyed patrolling it and discovered to their joy a discarded chew treat cleverly hidden in shrubbery by a previous visitor. I was impressed at how well the kitchen was stocked - literally felt like home. The main negative comes with it being located on a heritage street that was established before cars were invented. The driveway would be tight for anything but a small car. Many homes don't have onsite parking and so residents need to park on the street. The council allows parking almost directly across from the cottage's driveway; which, on a very narrow street, means you may find yourself effectively blocked in.

Pink Concert Tour

Maylands Cottage was a very homly, comfortable cottage for 4 x adults. Being well situated, close to bus stop and city centre made exploring the area easy to navigate and very accessible. 2 minor downfalls. The alarm, marked as "alarm do not touch", was activated 3/4 night (between 1 & 2am). Required touching the untouchable, to press the on/off button to cancel alarm. Drainage in small bathroom. Water from shower did not drain efficiently through shower drain. Water collected and ran to drain in front of toilet, soaking all bathmats that required hanging outside after each shower. Mop did not dry the area appropriately, and required wiping up with rags. Minor issues that did not distract too much from comfortable, homliness of cottage. Thanks for having us. 💜
