Pet Friendly Private Bush Cottage

Tallowwood Cottage is tucked away amongst towering gum trees with two bedrooms (each with a queen bed) and an indoor fireplace to keep you warm over winter. Firewood's supplied free of charge. Air conditioning's also provided if you want quick and easy heating. The cottage is hidden down a 200 metre long sealed asphalt driveway into a clearing set around luscious subtropical rainforest. There’s a small steep section of the driveway but it has good traction for 2WD cars as it’s sealed with asphalt. The cottage is completely private with no neighbours around but you'll share the bush with an abundance of birdlife, if you're lucky you might see a koala but if you're unlucky you might get a leach (after heavy rain) - that's just the bush. It's a perfect location for an overnight stopover or for a few days to unwind in nature. If you don't want to completely disconnect from tech there's free wifi and a chrome cast TV. A landline is also provided if you don't receive good mobile phone reception that you can make outgoing local/national calls. There's lots of creeks nearby to explore only a 5 minute drive and the town and beach is only a short 15 minute drive away. If you have any special requests I'm always happy to accommodate. Pets are welcome free of charge.

Relaxing

What a lovely cottage had a very quite and relaxing stay.The only negative would be it had a very strange and strong smell the whole time we where there. Mainly in the lounge and kitchen area.

Beautiful property and wildness

This is a very cute little cottage with beautiful greenery all around. Very quick and easy check in and out. The only downside was it had a very unpleasant damp smell when you first walk in. There was a dehumidifier to help but it had to be emptied multiple times. This is definitely a laid back lifestyle. a few cob webs inside.There wasn't any itemised tea ,coffee or bread.General used jam, sauce and jar of coffee Tv reception wasn't very good. The stay itself was nice and the new fittings and appliances were lovely. abit unsure about the no certains at the start but it was nice waking up to the rainforest.
