Welcome to the Designers Cottage at The Lazy Lavender!
We`ve put a lot of love into this space, and we want every guest to have a magical, relaxing stay. To make sure that happens for everyone, here`s what you need to know before you arrive.

The Basics
Guests must be 21+ to book. The Designers Cottage accommodates up to 4 guests — little ones over 12 months count too. A $20 per night fee applies for each guest beyond the first two — just let us know ahead of time so we can plan accordingly. Hosting more than 4 guests without prior approval carries a $100 per night penalty. Only registered guests are permitted on the property. If you`d like to have a visitor stop by, just reach out and we`ll do our best to accommodate.

Your Furry Plus-One 🐾
We`re dog people! One registered dog is welcome at the Designers Cottage — a $95 flat fee applies. Please add your dog during booking — an unregistered dog results in a $500 fine. We ask that dogs stay off all furniture and beds. Excessive dog hair cleanup will incur an additional charge, and any accidents inside carry a $300 fee plus replacement costs for any damaged items. Please bring waste bags — our cleaning team charges extra for outdoor pickup and we`ll pass that cost along if needed. Dogs must be crated when left alone and kept on a leash at all times outdoors. No other animals please.
If you`re traveling with a service dog, please register them with us before your stay. Service dogs must remain leashed at all times and cannot be left alone in the home.

Keep It Peaceful
This is a quiet retreat — no loud parties, events, fireworks, or shooting. We want you to unwind completely, not wake up the whole valley. 🤫

Smoke-Free Zone
The Designers Cottage is 100% smoke-free indoors — a minimum $500 cleaning fee applies for any smoking inside. If you smoke outdoors, please take your butts with you — a $50 cleanup fee applies if our team has to collect them.

Commercial Use
Planning a photoshoot or filming for commercial purposes? We`d love to make it happen — just reach out before your stay so we can make the right arrangements.

Thank you for respecting our little slice of the Hill Country. We genuinely can`t wait to host you — now go relax, you`ve earned it. 🌿

Wimberley Hideaway

Great rental property. Loved the front porch with rockers and a swing chair. The fire pit and outside solar lights added to the ambiance, and the Weber grill allowed us to cook outdoors. Private, secluded, but accessible to all Wimberley attractions. We’ll definitely try to book this cottage again when visiting the area. Couldn’t “register” with the tablet as requested upon arrival, and the light over the stove didn’t work. Minor quibbles!

Beautiful Retreat

We had such an amazing time at the Lazy Lavender cottage. Very clean and welcoming, suited for a family with a little one. We had breakfast every day outside. The location was great, close but enough distance out. We will certainly be back!

Superb Quiet and Cozy Weekend Getaway

Spent New Years Eve & Day with my partner at this lovely, quaint place, which I was fortunate to come across. Both of us were looking forward to exploring the town & surrounding points of interest, although most places were either closed due to New Years Day observance or COVID limitations. All was not lost with the weekend getaway, as we both enjoyed the ambiance of The Lazy Lavender Home and exploring nearby places like downtown & a scenic lounge called The Shady Llama. Would definitely return to The Lazy Lavender Home & escape for some downtime!

Cozy cottage!

Loved the atmosphere & decor. Close to shops and restaurants in Wimberley, but far enough away to have a quiet night under the stars. Beautiful cottage with friendly property owners. Would definitely recommend a stay here!

About the host

Hosted by Nathali Barlas

Host profile image
We are Nathali and Cengiz,

We purchased our Wimberley property this year after falling in love at first sight. We were both born in Europe and have traveled all over the world, but Wimberley captured our hearts, and we love getting away to the Lazy Lavender to relax.
We spent many of months renovating the Lazy Lavender Cottage and the Lazy Lavender House and hope you enjoy it as much as we do.
We hope you follow The Lazy Lavender on social media to keep up with specials and events we plan on posting in the future.

Why they chose this property

This property is magical. Our guest's favorite spot is the back deck. We back up to an exotic game ranch, and the animals will stop by and say hello. At night it is the ideal space for stargazing, yet it is only minutes away from town. The property is on a private road, which adds to the safety of our guests.

What makes this property unique

Close to everything, yet an excellent place for stargazing.
