Hi Heidi and Peter,
We are so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Oats Cottage, you were wonderful guests and left the cottage so neat and tidy!
You are both welcome back anytime!
Warm regards

A beautifully presented, peaceful cottage, only a short walk from the heart of Hahndorf. Extremely comfortable and welcoming. A perfect base to explore the shops, markets, cafes and wineries. Mark was friendly and helpful and provided us with local knowledge of things to do in the town and surrounds.We highly recommend Oats Cottage and look forward to returning in the near future.

The best of the best
This cottage is excellent. Mike and Kate have obviously investigated the holday accommodation business thoroughly and it shows. The cottage is in immaculate condition and it is very convenient to the cafe, coffee and cake culture that Hahndorf has to offer. Breakfast at Cafe Assiette is to be recommended. It is central to most of the other delights that the Adelaide Hills has to offer. Worthy of another stay one day. Vivienne and Michael

Hi Vivienne and Michael, thank you so much for your kind comments and we shall look forward to welcoming you back to Oats Cottage one day!
I spent 3 weeks here in January 2023. Mike (the owner) was very attentive and allowed me to check-in early. The cottage was packed full of pleasant surprises! From tea and coffee, crumpets, butter, vegemite, hot cereal and a bottle of wine! Along all the amenities of living at home including a BBQ grill! Also included was Netflix! Thank you, Mike, for all you provided and did for me including the sheet and towel exchanges. I loved your rain-head high pressure shower too! :)

Looks lovely from the outside
This house is meant for a stay of 2 people. Any more than that and you won't even have enough chairs to watch TV. Not as clean as you would expect for the price you are paying. All cleaning products including bath and shower products are passed on from guest to guest. They are not new. Towels were old and shabby. Would be fine if you were only 2 people staying and were expecting 3 star.

We appreciate all constructive feedback for Oats Cottage, however we feel that in this case we need to respond to the negative comments, taking into consideration all previous posts and over 130 positive comments within our guest book. The website clearly shows this as a one bedroomed cottage with an additional pullout bed and this is reiterated on booking. We offered a full refund on your arrival when you discussed your concerns regarding the sleeping and seating for 4 adults. The towels are good quality towels that are regularly replaced and good quality products are included throughout the property. In relation to the price of the accommodation that was also discussed at the time of your stay and we remain competitive within the beautiful Adelaide Hills. We are sorry you did not enjoy your stay but find your comments unfair as we strive to provide a home away from home for all of our guests. We would also request the return of our guest information booklet and cottage certificates which you advised during our follow up call that you would return. Kind Regards Oats Cottage.
This cute little cottage was ideally located in the heart of Hahndorf, sparkling clean with all the amenities you need. My daughter and I had a fabulous weekend, we would recommend this accommodation!
Enjoyed the experience from start to finish. Walking in the front door to find a beautifully present home will all amenities we might need. Had the privacy we desired yet was super close to shops and restaurants. Loved relaxing in the spa and dining at local restaurants.
Great location with short walk to attractions. Well supplied and some thoughtfull touches. Communication with Mike the owner was a pleasure. Will be recommending to friends and family. Very good.
This place is exactly as described in the listing well maintained, comfortable with luxurious extras.
Minutes walk to the Main Street of Hahndorf and all it has to offer.
Mike the owner is friendly and very helpful.
Would definitely recommend.
We expected it to be good but the experience far exceeded expectations. There was not a single thing to criticize and Mike made sure that we were completely satisfied. After he had been to see us, we both remarked that it was as if we had known him for a long time. We cannot recommend him or his property more highly
Bev and Bill from Mount Dandenong, Vic
Had a fabulous short getaway in Oats Cottage. The cottage was very well presented, spotless, very comfortable and was ideal for visiting Handoffs' many attractions. Mike was very helpful with the booking and check in process and also provided lots of info on local businesses and attractions. We would definitely stay there again and highly recommend it for others.
Comfortable but for people in wheelchairs the bathroom is not suitable as shower not big enough and shower head is fixed and tiles are not non-slip. Carpet is problem in lounge and bedroom.
