Cottage holiday rentals in Surrey Hills

Above and beyond. Great place, beautiful surroundings (some spectacular garden surprises nearby) and welcoming extra’s- thanks for the fresh bread and groceries!!! The family did not want to leave. Till next time…

Beautiful cottage, carefully maintained, can see the host has put lots of love into the property to make it special. Exactly how it was described and matched our expectations. Peaceful surroundings and cosy set up. Great weekend getaway, would stay again!

Loved our stay and hope to book again in the future.

Alan was super responsive and the location was absolutely stunning. Highly recommend!

We had a great stay! Everything was so thoughtfully supplied, we loved the little details that the hosts left in the cottage for us. It made our stay very special and we felt very welcome.

Thank you Penny. What a lovely cottage. It was great for our family who attended a wedding at Mount Dandenong. It was private, functional and cosey. Well furbished and had everything we needed. Loved the private back yard. We will come back one day.

Had a great weekend away at this cosy cottage. The cottage is warm, comfortable, and well-equipped, with everything you need for a quiet getaway. Loved the spa and little heater, made for a romantic time. It’s very peaceful and still close to town. Bed was comfy, and had all the basics. Would definitely come back, thankyou Nickett!!

The Observatory Cottages at the top of Mt Dandenong has been the place to stay in the ranges for years, and with good reason! We last visited Ironbark cottage 20 years ago and we loved it this time as we did two decades ago. It’s extremely cosy and private and you can easily spend a whole weekend at the cottage without leaving! The spa and gas log fire place are highlights, adding to the warm and cozy vibe. Penny leaves great provisions for a cooked breakfast for two mornings and there’s a kitchen if you feel like staying in. She has great communication and is very responsive if you need her for anything. A beautiful choice for a weekend of R&R. Highly recommended.

We thoroughly enjoyed our two day stay at Pigeon Bark farm in the cottage. The place was cosy and specious with comfy beds and couch, spotlessly clean with old world charm. The kitchen had all we needed and was well stocked, the coffee and breakfast provisions and snacks were good. It was completely calm and peaceful but lovely to see the animals around, especially the beautiful friendly peacocks who can be hand fed. Jacqui was an excellent host and living nearby was an excellent help with anything we needed and quickly responded to our needs. She even went the second mile by offering us drop off and pick up from our very close wedding venue. A lovely friendly person.

Our stay at the cottage was perfect. Andrew was very accomodating and friendly. The place made us feel very at home. The courtyard was perfect for our dog and was very private and quiet. 10/10 recommend

It was a wonderful place to spend the night with family. More than ample space to host a lovely family dinner and board games afterwards. The fireplace made it all the more cosy.

I have stayed at Thackeray many times. it's the perfect location on the beach.. great bike rides... easy to park... close to everything and Alyce is continually upgrading equipment in her home so everything works! highly recommended. a unique place with beautiful character.

Great deal and communication as well as super clean home!

More than happy to return to Chris's cottage, we really enjoy this location and the cottage is cosy, private and peaceful. we particularly like the additional parking space too, it helps if you have a trailer on as we did for this visit. Chris warmed up the house for our arrival along with lights and snacks. we'll be back (our home away from home)

Beautiful cosy home in the trees! Fabulous outdoor space with lots of space for the kids to run around! The swings were a hit! The cubby needs a bit of TLC. Comfy beds and lovely and warm for the winter with the fire. Hosts easy to communicate with and flexible with check in/out times which was very handy. The playground at the golf course was a favourite! Highly recommend.

My family stayed here for 4 nights & it was a lovely home! the beds were the BEST we have had in an Airbnb! Jo communicated so well & check in & out went smoothly. We had everything we needed to cook & enjoy the space. We were so close to the city but no noice & the heating was so good & increased the cosiness of the cottage. Will definitely be returning! thank you Jo

Absolutely awesome stay! John was very accommodating, hospitable, kind and funny and was able to get in a little earlier and take our bags for the day. He offered up food and drink from the fridge as well as snacks and chocolate which was lovely. He responded well if we had any issues and the place was pretty clean! Great area for nightlife and walking around with some good pubs and heaps of shops, really great value for money. Perfect for our party of 7, and would highly recommend this place!

A gorgeous place in a divine location. Every little detail taken care of and very warm and cozy. We will be back. Thank you for having us.

Great, private and quiet space surrounded by trees and close to Emerald township. Clean and comfortable. Easy check in. Great communication. Thank you to Willeke and family

A beautiful and peaceful stay! We came to the area for a wedding and wanted to stay somewhere private and close enough to explore the small surrounding towns. The cottage provided everything we needed for that experience and more. The cosy atmosphere with a luxurious bathroom, a comfortable bed and the living room with big windows capturing the wild gardens. We would stay there again!

Diana was an incredibly understanding and easy host even with some last minute changes. The cottage is lovely and perfect for any couple.

Awesome stay just outside of central Melbourne. The ‘East Wing’ was just as described and suited all of our needs. Lovely and clean and all of the amenities you would need for a stay, we felt right at home. Catherine was a fantastic host who helped us with all of our questions and let us say hello to her very friendly greyhound. 10 minute walk to Spotswood station and 15/20 minute train ride gets you into central. Catherine kindly left out some Myki cards to help out with the transport. Thanks so much! Will recommend to anyone wanting to explore Melbourne

Great little guest house tucked away in a nice quiet street. Can definitely recommend.

We had a wonderful stay at Sulochi’s place. It was clean, peaceful and private, and our hosts were extremely helpful and responsive. The home had everything we needed for the perfect getaway
