Quaint retro cottage in central location
A lovely cottage full of character. Perfect location to Halls Gap only a 5 minute walk away. Large front yard with a fire pit, the cottage set back from the main road so it is very quiet. So many small details to help the stay more comfortable. Caters to family stays with lots of books and games for all ages. Heating was great with wood heater, inverter, and wall heaters.

Fantastic experience
Charming house ! Property was a lot bigger than what we thought ! Right in the heart of town , yet set back a little so nice and quiet . My 9 year old son loved the kids room , so cosy with lots of activities and books to keep him entertained while looking out the window watching deer and kangaroos! We lit the fire both nights , it was truly a magical experience for us both. An easy walk out to dinner each night coming back to our cosy fire. Very handy to have a washing machine and dryer to use. A wonderful host who was happy to help us in any way she could ( she let us arrive a little earlier which was very generous ) oh ! And the main bedroom had the most comfy mattress , I am in the process of ordering myself the same mattress for home as I had the most incredible sleep 😊

A perfect stay for a girls climbing weekend
Jennifer was such a great host. We weren’t sure if we would make it because of the bush fires but she was so easy to communicate with and willing to refund us if we couldn’t make it. Luckily we were still able to get there! It’s such a beautiful little house so close to halls gap town centre. We were surrounded by lots of friendly wildlife every day. The place was so quiet and cosy with everything you could possibly need including some fun board games! I would love to stay here again. Thank you Jennifer!

Short stay at Kookaburra
This is a house in the midst of nature where you wake up to kangaroos nibbling on grass and emus strolling outside the window. The house is well equipped and close to trails and walking distance restaurants. Thanks Jennifer for having us. We enjoyed our stay alot.
