This is our fourth year staying at Serendip, A wonderful place to get away and enjoy some piece and quiet, as you watch the water from the veranda. Rachel and Brian are wonderful hosts that are very easy to communicate with and knowledgeable about the area. I enjoy the visits from Spud the owners dog, she is friendly and well behaved. I will continue to visit this wonderful place in the future.

Summer holiday
This property is beautiful and stunning even in the rain. The cottage is a quaint and very well maintained. A few minor changes which make the cottage even more homely. The owners are very friendly and on hand with any enquiry or needs of their visitors. And of course cannot forget Spud the house dog, she is gorgeous, friendly and always happy to come for a visit. I would recommend this property highly. We will definitely be back again.

Elegant, comfortable and peaceful, Serendip had everything we needed plus more. Greeted with wine and chocolates and the most exquisite view, we relaxed straight away. The host quickly responded with any questions we had. The location is sensational, spacious and private. We are definitely hoping to return one day!

Paradise by the Lake
Serendip gives a big embrace on arrival and it is most difficult to leave. A charming residence with quality and quirky design features. Extremely well appointed. Nothing is left to chance. A marvellous mid Winter escape, cosy cottage, quiet location, lake views from the sitting room, beautiful walks, easy drive to shops, bonus of being so close to Tilba Tilba, delightful National Trust Village. Owners who are attentive, but discreet. Even out sweet dog Teddy was dragging his paws as we left.

Excellent location, friendly owners. Best place to stay.
From the time we arrived until we departed this property was all we expected and more. From the quaint little 3 bedroom cottage to the most wonderful view of Wallaga Lakes, and the short walk through to the beach it was all just wonderful. Rachel and Brian are wonderful host's always happy to help with anything. But the finishing touch is the availability to have our canine companion with us, to run and play with host's pet Spud. This is our second time at the cottage and most defiantly will not be our last.
