Family stay just outside of Adelaide with our doggie

The home is great and it does feel like a home, the back yard is beautiful and secure. Loved the style of the home, the location was so great could walk to restaurants, shops and parks. Was a easy drive into the cbd, yes the parking was tight at the property but it’s the same for every property around the area. Great price and value for money, you can tell the difference that it’s owned and managed by its owner.

Maylands Review

We had a wonderful experience at this property. We had an extended stay - over a month. Margie is a thoughtful, thorough host. The property was extremely well appointed for a long or short stay; and prepared for either warm or cool weather. We used the kitchen and outdoor BBQ/eating area frequently. There is room for a car but would suggest street parking. Public transit is frequent and 10 minutes to the CBD. 15-20 minutes from wineries and fabulous hiking at one of the numerous parks. Groceries, fresh fish, etc 10 minute walk in Norwood. We very much enjoyed our stay here and recommend.

Comfortable heritage house in a good location

Overall was a great stay, location was quiet while also being a short walk to Norwood and the Maylands hotel.Unfortunately the laundry had a bit of a smell that permeated through the house when you forget to keep the door closed.Also, while there is ample street parking, the "on site" car park is small, and if someone parks on the street opposite you won't be able to get out.

Comfortable

Great location, comfortable stay however property needs some updating - old tv couldn’t stream, old oven dials popped off, terrible design of bath/shower resulting in excess water overflowing onto floor/around toilet. Owner unexpectedly just turned up and nosey neighbor next door did same - all a bit odd.

Pink Concert Tour

Maylands Cottage was a very homly, comfortable cottage for 4 x adults. Being well situated, close to bus stop and city centre made exploring the area easy to navigate and very accessible. 2 minor downfalls. The alarm, marked as "alarm do not touch", was activated 3/4 night (between 1 & 2am). Required touching the untouchable, to press the on/off button to cancel alarm. Drainage in small bathroom. Water from shower did not drain efficiently through shower drain. Water collected and ran to drain in front of toilet, soaking all bathmats that required hanging outside after each shower. Mop did not dry the area appropriately, and required wiping up with rags. Minor issues that did not distract too much from comfortable, homliness of cottage. Thanks for having us. 💜

Old world Adelaide with modern amenities

A beautifully updated classic 19th century Adelaide bluestone cottage, set in an area of similar heritage. It was lovely to walk the dogs and explore the area's heritage. The cottage is located only a short walk from the local pub for a nice meal, public transport to get you to the city and various shops and cafes. The cottage itself feels large and the back garden is stunning. My dogs enjoyed patrolling it and discovered to their joy a discarded chew treat cleverly hidden in shrubbery by a previous visitor. I was impressed at how well the kitchen was stocked - literally felt like home. The main negative comes with it being located on a heritage street that was established before cars were invented. The driveway would be tight for anything but a small car. Many homes don't have onsite parking and so residents need to park on the street. The council allows parking almost directly across from the cottage's driveway; which, on a very narrow street, means you may find yourself effectively blocked in.
