Idyllic stone cottage in the heart of Childers.

Idyllic stone cottage with slate floors under a giant fig tree, 200 metre stroll to the picturesque town of Childers. Plenty of pubs and coffee shops and an IGA supermarket for all your requirements. Situated right on the Bruce Highway at 36a it’s impossible to get lost! Fully fenced to keep your pets safe. Open plan (there are no bedroom walls!) with air conditioning and an electric fireplace. Queen bed downstairs with 4 single beds on the mezzanine level. Cottage is located directly off the highway under a giant fig tree so traffic noise and wildlife are present. Small single carport with plenty of space for additional vehicle/s. Please note: there is a pet fee of $20.00 per stay, when booking your stay please check the ‘travelling with pets box’. figtreecottage4660@gmail.com or call 0426 641 969.

The property is unique and located in an excellent spot. It has a wonderful feel. I was able to take my dog inside and he was welcome. It's a classic place that is memorable to stay, and the check-in was easy, and there were little things like some milk and teas etc to make settling in easy

Wonderful host

Karen was very helpful when our plans were disrupted by Cyclone Alfred. We appreciated the attention to detail that made this 'home away from home' for us, such as herbal teabags and cereals. Very conveniently located, walking distance to shops.
