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!

Tranquil get-away

The cottage was lovely - tastefully furnished with so many thoughtful touches. Ideal for a relaxing break - we enjoyed the spacious surrounds and made good use of the recliner chairs in the shade of the trees! Enhanced by the beautiful birdsong background as the sun went down. Thank you for your hospitality - we hope to visit again.

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.

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 😀

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.

Serene and clean

We were travelling with our 5th wheelr in tow and needed accommodation somewhere close to Toowoomba that was accessible for the vehicle to be parked on the grounds. Jane was very supportive and the property is on spacious grounds, allowing us to plug into power for the fridge to run. Deep verandah was a treat on hot sunny days.....

Peaceful , private bliss close to town

My partner Ryan and I had such a lovely time at this beautiful rural retreat. We loved the expanse of land and space outside and were able to enjoy a lovely drink in the sun and a warm fire by night! Bruno the horse was just the most precious and so friendly - we hung out with him quite a bit and he really just made the stay even more special for us ! It’s a beautiful pocket - close to town but far enough removed to enjoy the country air.. very clean inside with everything you need for a short stay. We wish we had longer ! Oh and lastly - we were able to easily order an Uber into Toowoomba to enjoy a show at the theatre! Jane - thank you for your attention to detail and communication! We hope to be back !
