A step back in time

Wonderfully appointed with everything we needed for a weekend. Thoroughly enjoyed soaking up the history of the village, some of which was my own family history.

Magnificent stay !

My sisters and I stayed in this lovely old cottage for a 3 day getaway. Everything was wonderful. The cottage was tastefully decorated with three comfortable beds , all bedrooms had their own ensuite. The owner left lots of extra goodies in the way of local produce, gourmet cakes from the bakery, a bottle of local wine and many other little touches that made our stay perfect. The cottage was in an excellent location, only 200 metres from the best cafes, restaurants and shops. Our own private little getaway.

Hillside Cottage - glorious.

Four best friends, a beautifully appointed "home", a delightful village with wonderful eateries, shopping, wineries, bush tracks. What more could you ask for. The cottage felt like home. Warm and cosy. The bedrooms were beautiful and beds so comfy. We would recommend without hesitation. Thank you Gayle and Grant.

Fantastic Cottage

Really great place in the heart of Berrima, only minutes from shops, cafes and pubs. Hosts were extremely friendly and accommodating, and each room has its own en-suite, making it very convenient for everyone to get ready to head out. Would highly recommend.

Perfect accommodation

We have just returned from 2 nights staying in beautiful Hillside Cottage. We attended my nephew’s wedding at Bendooley Estate on Saturday evening. As the host says, the accommodation is perfect for people who need comfortable accommodation, but who are also out for most of the weekend. The small and updated cottage kitchen was totally adequate for our needs. Some of us ate breakfast at the cottage, and it was perfect for food preparation and cooking for our very young children. The 3 bedrooms are very comfortable, each bedroom having a very good ensuite bathroom. We hired a babysitter for the evening wedding. It is also great that there is a 4th bathr’m off the living room which the babysitter could use. The cottage is located a very short & easy walk away from beautiful Berrima village. The roses and garden environs of the cottage are very beautiful. We sat on the sunny verandah for our morning cuppa each day.
