Gorgeous little hideaway 1 min from Healesville town centre

The garden cottage was a great little spot for us for a weekend getaway. The kitchen was great for cooking, but you're only a minute from Healesville town centre, close enough to get everything you need. Jack and Stacey were really helpful. We had a great time.

Comfortable stay in beautifully restored cottage

The cottage was very comfortable for our short break in Healesville. Kitchen was well set up with everything we needed. Bathrooms had great products to use - a bonus for guests! The location above the town was ideal for a ‘country escape’…sitting on the verandah with a view of the mountains was very relaxing! Thank you Jack and Stacey!

Differs to listing, not worth money we spent, when out someone used bbq on veranda

We were there 4 nights due to a wedding nearby. First impressions when we arrived was the yard and surrounding area is in need of attention. Arrival at night would have been tricky/dangerous. If kept nice I am sure the property would present a lot cleaner and offer views. The pictures also within listing do differ to real life, guessing photos are a number of years old. We did ask for 3 beds and only 2 were made. Upon making the third bed there was no additional linen that we could find and we found in draw under trundle bed towels that were wet so we decided not to bother with the third bed. Probably the most disappointing part is when we were out on the Friday and returned home we were parked out. We had to approach neighbours to move their car who were having a party. This wasn't really the issue but when we returned inside the house we had noticed the bbq on veranda had been used while we were out. Felt very strange and won't be staying there again and would not recommend staying here. Bathroom at front of house as well overflows while having a shower and ends up flooding. On the positive front I loved the fireplace, oven and other bathroom.
