Cute cottage getaway

My dog and I had the pleasure of meeting Jane at check-in, super lovely and helpful. Very clean and tidy cottage with everything I needed. Huge bathroom and the shower is amazing! Weather wasn't great, so didnt get to enjoy the firepit, however the whole area looked very inviting. I'd definitely go back as my time there was relaxing and only a short drive to Toowoomba for some sightseeing and pastries.

Relaxing farm stay. We really loved the outside area with the barbecue, fire pit and pizza oven. Our dog had the time of her life playing in the garden. Hosts are very welcoming and accomodating. We’ll be back!

Easy to find, lovely quiet setting just out of Toowoomba. We spent 3 wonderful days and nights here after driving up from Melbourne for a wedding. The cottage, set on a few acres, was beautifully decorated and styled, spotless and comfortable. It had a well-appointed kitchen, large fridge, books, magazines, games, etc. We slept in a very comfy king size bed and it had a lovely large ensuite and a living/kitchen area.Also a very relaxing outdoor area, where we soaked in the sunshine and listened to the birds.Easy communication with our wonderful host Jane (who we were lucky to meet) and I got to spend some time patting her gentle horse Bruno each day.We highly recommend, and will definitely return here next time we’re near Toowoomba!

Cosy Base for Toowoomba Region

We had a fantastic time here. We spent our week exploring the wider Toowoomba Region and returning to the comfort of the cottage each day. It is wonderfully furnished, comfortable and has everything we needed for our stay including the ability to prepare simple meals. Jane is absolutely lovely and was very accommodating. We also loved meeting Bruno the horse 😀

Loved our stay

We loved our little getaway to the cottage. My husband and I really needed a break and we were very happy that we were able to bring our dog along with us. The cottage was so cute and decorated perfectly, we were super comfortable and warm over a very cold weekend. We enjoyed relaxing around the fire pit and reading in the sun, it was so peaceful. Jane was really responsive and helped with recommendations and any questions we had. Will definitely recommend to friends.

Relaxing Getaway

Just a short trip away to recharge and relax. A lovely spot to sit back and chill. A quick trip to Toowoomba for a spot of retail therapy then back to the peace and quiet. It was very comfortable and spacious with well thought out touches and beautiful decor. Everything you need with the bonus of a fire pit and pizza oven. Very happy.
