Comfortable and welcoming

We loved staying at Mt Beauty garden cottage and exploring the area. Highly recommend - house was welcoming and perfect for our family. I especially loved the sun drenched reading nook, and kids loved the easy access to the golf course, skate park and pump track. Thank you for having us.

Great pet friendly accommodation close to everything we needed. Only criticism is the shower. You have to climb into a bath & at almost 70 it was difficult to get into. My friend couldn’t get in she was too short to get her leg in . Mt Beauty is a beautiful place for a quick getaway

You little beauty

Nice quiet location near the golf club. We did a trail race at Falls Creek so this house was located at the base of the mountain. 40 minute drive to the top of Falls Creek. House was very comfortable and had everything we needed. Highly recommend.

Mount Beauty bliss

We really enjoyed our stay at Mount Beauty Garden Cottage. Leah, our host was great to deal with and her lovely home was very comfortable, heating was great as it was the middle of winter, cleanliness was a stand out & all the small touches (lights & heating on when we arrived, chocolates & snacks) made our stay very memorable. We will be back. Thank-you Leah :-)

Great location

Venue is close to the road on the way to Fall Creek but away from noise, so easy to rest after. I would like to see a drying room or some rakes in the laundry to hang gear. That would help to reduce gear being on the floor. and make drying for ski gear more easy to achieve.

Lovely, restful week

Dear Leah, we had a wonderful, restful week at your property. The cottage is clean, warm and spacious for a large family or a group of friends. We love cooking, and we found everything we needed in your kitchen. With the large variety of good quality books and board games, you made sure that your guests are well looked after even on rainy days. It was great to see the children reading again! The cottage is located close to everything - local restaurants, grocery shop, bakery, and only a short drive to the beautiful parks and nature trails. Thank you for the lovely stay, Murica Family

beautful house, great location, clean and as decribed. can't fault. if i had to offer anything constructive (but it didn't diminish from the stay) was the stove angle (leaning toward the back) made it difficult to cook eggs for instance as it pooled into the back end of the pan.also, the bbq wasn't looking great. wanted to use it but seemed very rusted on and even when i heated and cleaned, was looking little suspect. maybe get the hot plate seasoned again.

Wonderful property with a nice deck and so close to the lake and shops. So happy we could bring our Labrador too, but would have liked the front gate to be more secure and higher, otherwise it was a perfect stay.

Hidden gem!

What a find! I wanted to go to bright and around to see the autumn leaves . I’m so glad I stayed here, away from the busyness of bright but close enough to go for the day. Great location walking distance to the lake forSunset. My dog loved that it was dog friendly, and enjoyed the massive fenced in yard! Highly recommend !

About the host

Hosted by Leah McNaughton

Host profile image
Have loved the alpine area around Mount Beauty since child hood when we would travel from country NSW to Ovens to visit friends. Mount Beauty is the place I will settle in retirement. Currently work in Falls Creek and Melbourne.

Why they chose this property

I purchased this property, because of the garden with mature trees. The cottage is one of the original kit cottages imported from England during the building of the town and the hydro electric scheme.

What makes this property unique

Views to the mountains from the day bed. Large deck with BBQ for entertaining. Quiet central location walking distance to golf course, pond, shops, restaurants and bar. Private shaded garden area for reading and sitting. Clean, unpretentious cottage designed for the comfort and relaxation of humans and small to medium sized dogs.
