Guests Say
Paloma's review: There are not enough stars to rate this amazing cottage! We loved every single space. Everything was spot clean, plenty of cute details that made it homely. Loved the sheets, towels, soaps...everything was thoroughly selected, great quality. We felt very well taken care of. Jenny also offers experiences! We got bicycles as a bonus (prepared by Glyn, Jenny's husband) and booked the canoe experience just next door, super convenient! We finally could not make it due to a health issue. Martin, Jenny's son, was super understanding and had no issue with the cancellation and refund. Overall, the complete stay was perfect. We had such a great Christmas. We definitely would love to come back and take that pending canoe trip 😊❤️🚲🏞🛶
Show review Delightful Cottage. Very restful, peaceful ambiance. Loved the wrens and robin flitting among the bushes on the back patio. Thank you Jenny
Enjoyed reading the 60's & 70's mags and recalling the fashions. Friendly chickens from next door came to visit. Very relaxing. Jeanette
We had a wonderful relaxing stay - the cottage is lovely and the bird life amazing, we had a visit from the kangaroos and an echidna at the bottom of the garden and so many butterflies. A great weekend, wish we had booked for longer. We will return. Jane & Dave

This was the perfect place for a long weekend for my sister and I. Jenny could not have been more helpful. The cottage was beautiful, warm and inviting when we arrived. A great location for exploring the area or just sitting in front of the fire chatting.

This property was everything we hoped to get. Clean and comfortable, it had everything we needed to have a lovely few days in Kangaroo Valley. The kitchen is great if you want to self cater, the Hampden bridge is close by and the museum even closer.
We loved the decor, the garden and the bathtub. Such a comfortable place. We will be back for sure.

We loved our 2 nights in the hampden cottage. The kitchen and bathroom looked brand new and were well appointed. There was bubble bath for the lovely big bath, an abundance of large towels and wood for the open fire which gave a lovely ambience. The owners were great to communicate with too. We were sad to leave.
Property was perfect for us (4 people). Clean, comfortable. Property was perfect although a noisy local wombat made my sleep a bit interrupted. Not a bad reason to get some interrupted sleep though.
Lovely cottage, very roomy. Beds sooo comfy and warm.
Fab location with a nice walk to village.
Will be back!

Lots of animals in the garden. Quiet and relaxing
Had a wonderful time. The house was lovely and we spent every evening watching wombats at Bendeela recreation area. The most we saw was 42 wombats!!
It was very nice and cozy.. until we got woken on our 2nd night at 0300 by the smoke detector.. it kept us awake for the rest of the night. So very tired to get going the next day.
We really enjoyed staying at the cottage! It was very quaint but also very comfortable and very well appointed and provisioned. We particularly enjoyed the olde world atmosphere and loved the wood fire and back yard. The hosts were very welcoming and helpful too.
Lovely house which was well set up for a lovely restful break away. The combustion stove was set ready to light, wonderful kitchen, well stocked bathroom and surprisingly very quiet given its location. We'd definitely return for another stay.
Cute cottage well supplied with little essentials like tissues, and pantry items that are so easily forgotten as well as all the usuals like sheets and towels. A little closer to the road than I expected and it was quiet and peaceful out of business hours.
We had 3 adults for a 2 night stay and we enjoyed every moment. The beds were so comfortable and the property was very well equipped. We can highly recommend this property.
The cottage was very well set up with very need catered to. The decor was old meets new- vintage class with modern comforts. It was very clean with fresh linen and plenty of towels provided. The backyard was nice and big with lots of space for our daughter to play. And Jenny was lovely and very friendly
