Stunning location, outstanding and beautiful accommodation, abundance of wood for the fire, great wifi, excellent communication with property manager… could not ask for more!
Great cottage for a group of friends. It has everything you need and lots of little extras which were really appreciated. The place was also super clean and Michelle was very easy to deal with.

The owner was easily contactable and was easy to communicate with. The property was beautiful and provided extras that I don’t normally expect (cereal, milk, butter, condiments). I would definitely stay again at this lovely, peaceful retreat in the Adelaide Hills.
We absolutely loved this property. The cottage itself is very homily and comfortable and the gardens are just beautiful. The location was ideal for exploring the Adelaide Hills and we had a beautiful Indian meal at the restaurant located within very easy walking distance. The host was lovely too and great with communication. We would love to return in the future.

Thank you so much for your kind words. So glad you enjoyed your stay at Stirling Cottage. You are most welcome to come back any time.
The cottage was a short walk to Stirling village. The host Michelle was a wonderful - she left a lovely basket of food and drink for us.
The cottage itself is completely charming, the hosts have thought so much about the detail - such a great eye for interior design.
We stayed with our family of four (two teenagers) and my parents. It was a perfect little break.
Thank you Michelle!
We had a lovely stay at Stirling Cottage. Michelle was fantastic from the initial booking, communication leading up to our stay and while we were there. At one point it looked like we may need to stay an extra night. Michelle got straight back to me and was very accommodating. The breakfast supplies were brilliant and fireplace was great with plenty of firewood.Thank you Michelle for allowing us to stay in your beautiful cottage.Adrian, Noelle, Belle & KitThank you Adrian, Noelle, Belle and Kit

So glad you enjoyed your getaway at Stirling Cottage. Many thanks for your exceptional review. You have made my day. Safe Travels.

Stirling Cottage was picture perfect. The Stirling Main Street is beautiful and Stirling Hotel is a great place to go for dinner. The cottage is very well maintained, very clean, and well decorated. The garden is a great spot to sit for breakfast and listen to the birds. Michelle was amazing and provided a good selection of breakfast staples which lasted us the whole trip. She has thought of everything and provided a big selection of blankets and pillows and had electric blankets on each bed which kept us very warm in the cool spring nights. We loved our time in the cottage and would definitely go back.
We absolutely loved our stay in Stirling Cottage. We had the perfect winter getaway in a gorgeous place with all the charm of beautiful period features with all the mod-cons. Spent our nights cosy and warm by the wood burning fire and felt tucked away amongst the magnificent greenery of the garden. The perfect place to enjoy in all seasons. We will definitely return! Our host, Michelle, was lovely! Excellent communication and showed much care and thoughtfulness about how the property is presented. Thank you for a wonderful stay.
Cosy, centrally located cottage to all Adelaide hills towns and sites of interest. I was there to celebrate my son's birthday so we were on a long weekend meal fest and were spoiled for excellent options at meal times. The cottage has 3 bedrooms and is well set up for a number of people - with a choice of three bedrooms. Owner Michelle will leave you well provided with the basics so that you won't starve when the munchies hit - chocolates, biscuits, tea, coffee, bread, cereal etc. I just wish I could have stayed longer - maybe a week to myself to relax without running around to restaurants - it had such a relaxing vibe.
