Cottage holiday rentals in Australasia

Extremely comfortable well appointed accommodation with a quaint cottage feel. Peaceful setting in beautiful natural surrounds. Gorgeous yard which became a wildlife sanctuary at night. Great location from which to explore the Atherton Tablelands. Communicative and helpful host. We're so glad we stayed at Hemingway's on the Hill. Thank you Fifi.

Beautiful accomodation and great amenities. The place was super warm and cosy, and we loved the outdoor bath and fire pit. You’ll need a car to get into town but the winery next door is super convenient.

My partner and I absolutely loved this stay, private from the other property and such a great view, Justin was extremely helpful and the property was perfect. Would 100% stay here again !

loved "The Studio" Absolutely everything we needed. warm and cosy and spa upstairs in the bedroom was icing on the cake. we would love to recommend it with lots of stars.

A very cosy cabin in quiet surroundings! Full kitchen with lots of supplies! The Breakfast supplies are amazing as was the port and chocolates! Plenty of wood for the log fire. Electric blankets on the beds to keep you warm in the winter chill! Very close to town. A lovely stay.

We loved our time at the drop in. Quiet and well decorated. Exactly what we we needed for a peaceful weekend outside Sydney. We loved the fireplace :) Joel was extremely responsive throughout. Thanks for having us!

Had a wonderful few days at this gorgeous property! The setting was absolutely beautiful, and the house was extremely well equipped with everything we needed. Especially loved relaxing in the hot tub and by the fire. Would fully recommend staying here!

As always, the old shack delivered exactly what we needed. Peace, quiet, relaxing, absolutely beautiful surroundings. We cannot recommend this place enough...we've been 3 times now. Judith is lovely! Always helpful and a master at starting that wood fired spa up for us in advance. We will be back again next year!

We had a wonderful two nights at the cottage, Natalie’s instructions are very clear and concise in checking in. At first you feel like you’re in a cottage and surroundings that could be at least over 100yo but beautifully presented, until you read the story in the cottage info book and realise it’s only around 20yo and that a lot of the material is from famous buildings and locations across not only Australia but the world. Great kitchen, very well appointed, heated floors in the bathrooms, great coffee machine, fire place and bbq. Would stay there again in a heart beat. Thanks Natalie

Fantastic view, sunset a highlight! Amazing hosts, super friendly! The BEST farm dog we’ve ever encountered! Super peaceful setting, bbq and fire kept the Autumn weather at bay!

Lovely spot if you’re looking for something cosy and private in Margaret River. Instructions and directions were simple and clear. Would stay again.

I had the most incredible stay in the Cove cabin. I treated myself to two nights away for my 32nd and it was gorgeous. The spa was absolutely the highlight. Being able to soak and relax while watching the beautiful surroundings and wildlife. Despite it being winter, the house was so cosy. I also loved that there was access to streaming platforms like Netflix and Stan as it was nice lounging around with the fire crackling and my comfort tv shows playing in the background. I will absolutely be staying here again. I’ve also recommended to friends. Thank you for the beautiful stay!

Gary was a great host and this is now one of my favourite ever stays. A beautiful off grid cottage, that is amazingly large and spacious considering the price and location. we travelled with a baby and Gary made sure to have a high chair ready and waiting for us when we arrived! I can't wait to bring my family back again.

Sea House is such a magical place from the gardens to the views, beach access and the comfort of the house made our stay really wonderful and the balm we needed. Liz was gave great information before we arrived and was really responsive. Can’t wait to get back.

I loved my stay at this beautiful studio. It felt relaxing and calm. The views were beautiful as were the gardens that Nicola has created on the property. I highly recommend a stay here.

Stunning property and gorgeous cabin. Everything you need and very comfortable. Thanks Ron and Sarah.

What a beautiful place. The pictures don’t do it justice. Impeccably clean, beautifully renovated Australians home by someone with an eye for both design and detail. Sun lit and cozy. We enjoyed seeing cows from the back of the home. Comfy beds with beautiful linens. Every creature comfort to make your stay enjoyable. The town of Loch is so cute. We enjoyed the Olive at Loch for food and wished we had time to do other sightseeing and cafes. Thanks for a great stay.

My girlfriend and I spent our 2 years there and had the nicest weekend. The cottage was so private and the nature surrounding it was beautiful, i particularly loved the birds. Pascal was incredibly helpful and gave loads of suggestions. We loved Spencer, the nearby town, and the highlight was renting a boat and cruising around the Hawkesbury. Would recommend to anyone who needs a break from the hustle and bustle

Absolutely gorgeous location and the place was just perfect. Nicely laid out, everything we could wish for and a comfy bed. The view was just stunning and we were fortunate enough to have a lovely misty morning the last day and it was just magical sitting watching the landscape change. We were there in June and the place stays beautifully warm once the fire gets going, a big plus for a couple of Queenslanders! Would be very happy to stay here again!

We stayed at Caitlin & Michael’s cabin for our honeymoon and absolutely loved it. The space was comfortable and well laid out, with a cosy bedroom, large luxurious bathroom, and a kitchen and living area that felt like home. The wood fire was a real highlight and we appreciated the generous supply of firewood, kindling, and matches. Their local food recommendations were incredible—we followed every one and had no regrets. We also enjoyed cooking in the well-equipped kitchen and using the BBQ. The peaceful location was stunning, with no nearby noise and beautiful local wildlife all around. Whether it was sunny or rainy, the cabin was the perfect place to relax and unwind. We’re already planning to return. Thank you, Caitlin & Michael, for an unforgettable stay!

A rare gem—pure bliss by the lake! We stayed one night at Cottage by the Lake, but it felt like a world away from everything. Just 5 minutes from Hanging Rock, this stunning waterfront property features two tranquil lakes, complete with a rowboat and kayaks that guests are free to enjoy. The cottage itself is warm, inviting, and beautifully appointed with a wood fireplace (firewood generously supplied). The upper-level attic bedroom is spacious and cosy, while the well-stocked kitchen had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Hosts Ann and Kevin were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We’d be remiss not to mention Jock, the sweetest dog who welcomed us on arrival and came by for regular visits. He loves pats and hugs and truly made us feel at home. This place is a nature lover’s paradise—kangaroos all around, stunning views, and absolute peace. A rare find we won’t forget. Wish we stayed longer. We will be back for a longer visit next time!

We had a lovely time at Fiona’s thoughtful cottage. We particularly loved the wood fire heater, vintage iPod (with every artist ever) and fresh bread upon arrival. Just a short drive to Daylesford - it was the perfect little weekend getaway from the city. Thank you! We hope to be back one day :)

If you are looking for a little getaway that is close to both Sydney or Canberra, this is the place for you! This little cottage is absolutely stunning. It is very modern inside, with a beautiful wood fire to keep you warm while you look out over Lake Conjola as the sun sets. With less than a 2 minute walk, you can head down to a little jetty where you can sit in the sun and watch the local wildlife or just enjoy the beautiful surrounds. The cottage is on the same property as the main residence, but it is very private. I definitely recommend this little peace of paradise, and would be only to happy to book in again soon!

This place has an amazing view, the photos don’t do it justice! Host are very well at communicating instructions and recommendations for our stay. Highly recommend
