Great dog friendly place
We had a fabulous time with our dogs. Such a great property. It's right on the main street with easy access to all the wonderful cafes. The hard floors make it easy to have the dogs and the outdoor area is stunning. We loved cooking on the BBQ and in the great kitchen. Thanks for a wonderful dtay

Charming cottage with plenty of accommodation and attention to detail.
To be honest this property was chosen because it was listed as pet friendly and we have two small dogs. The first night they slept in their dog crate, but the second night we used the second bathroom for them overnight, It is the first time we have taken them away with us, and it was successful. One dog was timid about walking on the timber floors, finding them a bit slippery. But this is not a criticism, it's just Tink! The house is charming and well located. There was great attention to detail. The wide verandahs were lovely as was the garden. The property was fenced all around so no problem with fur babies escaping.My only criticism would be that there was not much natural light in the house. But it is a charming olde world cottage, so that is to be expected. Yes, I would recommend it to others, especially families.

We stayed 3 nights with our mini poodle. The bedrooms were perfect w extremely comfortable beds, loved the ''new'' bathrooms and the kitchen was well equipped. The whole house was comfortable & very easy to relax in; easy clean surfaces, wide comfortable verandahs, pretty garden. We hope to return.

Beautiful Tranquil Berry Holiday Stay
If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Highly recommend, we arrived to a beautifully decorated, clean and spacious home. I wanted to bring my mum who is 93 years on a short trip from Sydney and found this amazing cottage. It was exactly what we needed with no steps and walk-in showers. The host was so attentive, helpful and communicated throughout the booking. We were greeted to a gorgeous home with special touches such as the lovely Christmas decorations and delicious welcome hamper. Definitely my place to go to in Berry.

Great spot, enjoyed the spa.
House was great; lots of handy extras in the kitchen. Beds were comfy. Aircon worked great in dining area but didn’t filter down to the lounge or kitchen to well so was a bit hot and stuffy, but fans were provided. We all enjoyed our stay

The best place to stay in Berry
Three ladies in our 60’s/70’s stayed in this beautiful house that was full of charm . The garden was glorious we spent a lot of time on the wrap around verandah watching the world go by. The slow combustion fire at night was very nice. We’d totally recommend this property for a lovely getaway

Lovely Getaway
We really enjoyed ourselves, the house is beautiful. Just one thing. The people who left the clean linen on the verandah left the gate open and my dog got out of the yard. Luckily he was just standng on the footpath in front of the gate when I found him and saw the gate open. Considering it's on the main street, that could have been dangerous. Otherwise everything was great.

Great stay
Beautiful home in perfect location, easy walking distance to all the cafes, restaurants and shops. Bonus to be able to bring our dog. The yard was well fenced. Air conditioner could do with replacing- it worked but was a bit noisy. Tip: go & unlock the house first & take your luggage through the garage. Would love to stay again soon.

Pre-wedding stay
Stayed for 3 nights before and after my daughter’s wedding, nice big house, confortable beds. House a bit dark and hot, air conditioning is in dining area doesn’t cool other sections, a few more fans would be nice. Unfortunately the temperature was 35 to 37 degrees. Overall very good and great position.

Great location, walking distance from everything!
Great location, walking distance to everything! However it can get very noisy because of traffic on the Main Street. Beautiful heritage house, although very dark inside and after our second stay, it feels like it needs some further renovations inside and lots of work on the outside, cleaning up and cutting back on the gardens.
