Cottage holiday rentals in Nelson Bay

Such a beautiful property with a recent glow-up. You will want to spend all your time outside and with the pool, hot tub and fire pit area - you can! Having lunch at Farmers Wife is also a great way to break up your stay.

I would highly recommend Karen’s place . It was one of the cleanest and well appointed houses I have stayed in . Lovely bedding , bathrooms immaculate and the spa worked without a glitch ! Not one negative thing to say . Thank you Karen for everything .

Thank you Kerry for sharing your lovely home. Felt like a little staycation with our puppies they felt very comfortable and safe. Love the little birds greeting us every morning. A great home and was close by to our wedding venue and wineries. Loved our welcome basket and felt very at home. Comfortable beds and very comfortable couch! Loved our stay. Thanks Kerry!

We loved our stay here! Some breakfast food was supplied which we added to to make it last a couple mornings and we were able to cook using the supplied kitchen utensils and appliances. Was a very cozy home that was perfect for us while we were there for a wedding down the road 😊

Wonderful place to stay for a relaxing time. Close enough to everything yet far enough away to be peaceful and secluded. The house was comfortable and kitchen was well kitted out.

Had an amazing and restful time. The price was amazing for the accomodations and the location is so beautiful. Loved having our own hot tub!

We had a fantastic stay at this lovely cottage with our family of five. The home was clean, spacious, and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The backyard was a highlight for the kids, with plenty of space to play and a great BBQ and outdoor dining area for us to relax. It was just a short walk to a fantastic family-friendly park, local pubs, and shops. Communication with the host was friendly and prompt, and she gave us some great local recommendations. Highly recommend for families looking for a well-equipped, welcoming place to stay!

We absolutely loved our stay here! It is exactly as described and shown on the photos. Very quite, beautiful cottage with amazing surroundings and wildlife. Our dogs just loved running around in the yard and waiting for the cows to arrive daily. Very thoughtful with candles and creams provided as well as a welcome hamper. Beds were super comfy with black out curations. Our dogs were so welcome and that made our trip so easy and enjoyable. We will defiantly stay here again! Only thing was we had no wifi due to the weather I think so just make sure you have your own.

Sally's cottage was the perfect place for my partner and I to stay for the weekend. It had everything we needed and so much more! The space was spotless and had beautiful details throughout the room. It was clear that a lot of heart and care had gone into the space. It had lovely views over their property to wake up to and plenty of spots to enjoy it. On top of that Sally was a wonderful host! She checked in with us the day before with very clear instructions and made sure we had everything we needed. She also baked us some lovely goodies and had stocked us up with fresh eggs and milk. The perfect host and a perfect stay! We highly recommend Mindaribba Cottage and would love to go back if we are back in the area.

Perfect place for an escape! Glenn’s space was a great retreat from city life. Although weather stopped us using the pool, it was the perfect excuse to stay indoors, light the log fire and enjoy a bottle of wine from nearby wineries. The accommodation was comfortable, on beautiful grounds. Glenn was helpful and responsive and the added touches of fresh eggs in the morning and introductions to the cute dogs was welcomed!

The location is super close to beach and restaurants, the suburb is quiet we all like it. My furry friend also loves the beautiful yard. We will definitely book this wonderful spot again if we back to Shoal Bay!

We had the best stay at Tanya’s place. Walking distance and short drive to many vineyards and restaurants. Perfect cosy cottage, even when the weather is rainy. The huge spa bath and rain shower head is a big plus as well!! Our golden retriever Moose had an absolute blast and we will be back!

Joanne’s place was perfect for what we needed. They were wonderful hosts. And it was so nice to have our doggos stay with us too.

Sally and Simon were fantastic hosts. Very responsive and accomodating. The property and location was great for the family, the little one has lots of fun feeding the chickens as well. Thanks again for a great stay.

Lovely service and clear communication. The place was spotless and very comfy and a perfect, quiet getaway

The accommodation was very comfortable and very well set up. The bed was comfortable and the shower was good. The location was quiet and peaceful yet not too far from the M1 which made it a perfect place to break my journey north. I could see that it would also be an excellent spot for a longer holiday since it is so well equipped and well located. Margeurite and her husband were lovely hosts yet respected my privacy. They were also kind enough to allow me to have my cavoodle inside. I would definitely stay again.

A truly wonderful weekend away. Such a warm welcoming feeling, the property and cottage is beautiful and instantly relaxing. The gardens create such a sense of tranquility and the house is full of relaxing corners to calm and entertain any guest. From books, to movies, games to cooking, you don’t even need to leave the house. The kitchen is so well equipped and the be beds were really comfortable. Every little detail, and more, has been thought of. The property is immaculately clean and full of beautiful art and decor. My kids (8 and 6) loved it too. Plenty to keep them entertained while my mum and I relaxed. The location is great too. Easy walk to the beach and loads of other activities nearby. Couldn’t speak highly enough of this stay. Thanks for a magical weekend away.

Beautifully kept property and amenities, and such a great place tounwind and relax. Alecia & Lloyd are wonderful hosts and they were proactive throughout the whole duration of our stay to make sure that our stay was relaxing & that all our needs were met. Was an awesome experience getting to meet their horses & feeding them.

Had an amazing stay at Crossing Creek Estate. Cabin was beautiful, comfortable and well provisioned for our family. Soccer pitch was a real hit with our three boys which allowed us to relax and enjoy the sunset over a few wines. Location is excellent with beautiful views and very peaceful. Will be back for sure.

The cottage is great — nothing fancy, but very well-equipped. The location, the view, and the lagoon in the backyard are absolutely amazing. It's a wonderful place to stay. The only downside was that the listing mentioned a firepit, but when I asked the hosts, they said there wasn't one due to safety risks. That was a bit disappointing. However, the communication with the hosts was excellent.

Wonderful! First of all, Marie was so so kind and helpful when we messaged asking for a last minute booking: within an hour we found ourselves in the cleanest, most homey, welcoming space! Great quality was throughout: from the amenities to the finishes to the fluffy soft towels, this is what an Airbnb should be. Surrounded by peaceful greenery but close to everything you need.

Very receptive and warm hosts. Would love to recommend anyone who wants a nice cosy room lace besides a wonderful location which is the huge beautiful lakes just adjacent to the property

Gails place was very cosy and comfortable for us and 2 kids. the kitchen was well stocked and we could cook there and there was a set of shops around the corner. absolutely no issues and we were well accommodated with highchair and kids plates etc. there was a selection of books and games and some beach toys which were appreciated. Gail was very friendly and helpful.

We enjoyed our farm stay at Jim's property. The home was well appointed and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable. I enjoyed using the pool and also having my morning coffee on the balcony taking in the beautiful surrounds. Jim was a nice host, checking in on us and responded to any of our requests. Will stay again!
