I stayed solo in the Cozy Cottage for a quiet weekend away from the city and it was exactly what I needed. The loft was the perfect spot to curl up with a book. The outdoor area was relaxing and peaceful with birds visiting throughout the day. Little touches like the heating pads in the bed and slippers made it feel extra cozy.The cottage is walkable to cafes and shops. It’s a gem of a spot for anyone looking to unplug and recharge. Highly recommend and can't wait to return! Thank you Deborah.

Cute compact little cottage with everything we needed for our 1 night stay. Nice & warm on arrival, & tucked away @ the back of the hosts home, with a lovely garden. Close to cafes, shops & restaurants. You can leave your car in the driveway & walk to them.We enjoyed our stay.

Perfect stopover for a night on a walk from Lilydale to Upper Ferntree Gully. Arrived cold and wet after a rainy day's hiking, and it was blissful to find the bed had an electric blanket. Had cosiest evening ever - thank you Deborah.

Beautiful little place managed by wonderful people. Right in Olinda so it is easy to grab a coffee or something to eat. There is no kitchen so food prep is a no, although there is a bar fridge and some basic dishes.We were comfortable and happy with our short stay.
