Creek Cottage

Creek Cottage

10/10 Excellent
"A quaint little cottage easy walking to everything. The cottage was very cosy. We had a lovely stay. We definitely enjoyed the electric blankets and the extra heaters. Everyone in Walhalla were extremely friendly and made us so welcome. A huge thanks to Astrid, Richard and their team for making our visit to our great grand parents home town so memorable. We just loved it"

Cosy Mountain retreat in a historic old gold mining town

Cosy Mountain retreat in a historic old gold mining town

8/10 Good
"This is a historic property in beautiful Walhalla. Host Larry is lovley, responds quickly with information and to enquiries. The house is situated on a steep embankment with the driveway coming two thirds to the house. Guests must walk uncovered outside steps leading to the house to enter. This information would be better disclosed in the information provided about the property first up. Anyone with mobility issues may not be able to access the house. Carrying suitases and heavy luggage up the steps in the rain is not ideal! The second 'bedroom' is 'divided' by a cloth divider - and this room is the walkthrough from kitchen to the loungeroom. Great kitchen with all you could need and very cosy with the fire in wintry conditions. Truly an experience."
