Lovely place for a quiet break
We stayed for 11 days at Ada Cottage and loved every minute of it. The house was just as shown and had everything that we expected. We especially loved the little touches - a stocked fridge, wine, reading material and especially good amenities. We loved that we had no need to worry about cleaning materials, bedroom and bathroom linen and supplies and little things like pegs for washing etc. A really well provisioned place. It is also wonderfully central - we could walk to anywhere in Warburton. BTW, try the Alpine Hotel, such a beautiful setting. Our thanks to Kathy, a great host. As a friend who doesn't say much would say - "Very good, 5 stars".

Ada cottage Warburton
Overall enjoyed the place. Quiet , homely feel, and close to everything in Warburton and lovely outlook . Housekeeping was a bit below par, needed a thorough vacuum and had unfinished laundry but we still had a great stay and would definitely go back.

Pleasant stay.
We two couples had a nice relaxing stay at Ada Cottage for 2 nights in October celebrating a 50th Wedding Anniversary. The cottage was nice, warm and clean. The beds we found very comfortable and we woke up relaxed for travelling and walking around Warburton. Thank you Kathy for the nice accommodation.

This cottage was the perfect little getaway for my family of four. With a great location, everything within walking distance and once you get the fire going you melt into relaxation with a glass of wine. You don’t even need to source the firewood as it’s all supplied. The breakfast was amazing. Would definitely recommend
