About this property

A petfriendly taste of yesteryear 1.1 k from city centre.

This is a 1930s two bedroom home with a new veranda from which to enjoy the leafy garden and large silky oaks out the front. Luxuriate in the large bath and enjoy the new appliances and quality additions in the quaint kitchen. You will be reminded of gentler times of the past by the polished floors and antique furniture throughout. A gas flame effects heater in the old fashioned fireplace will keep you warm in winter, air conditioning will help you relax after a day of enjoying the sights and sounds of Echuca in summer. A private side garden will give your pet dog a secure place to frolic. Relax and soak up the country ambience of yesteryear. Close to railway station and CBD, round the corner from East playground, barbecues and dogpark with offstreet parking. A bus stop is right put the front to take you into the middle of town if you don’t want to walk. WIFI. This is a comfortable cottage and cleaned between every visitor, but please keep in mind that it is pet friendly, so not for people who might be allergic to the odd hair that might get missed between the floorboards. Good AC and heating. Quilts/ pillows/ tea towels provided but bring your own linen and towels.

Perfect for Doggies
Just what we needed for a long weekend in Echuca, plenty of space, good heating for the cooler evenings and a great front yard to sit in and watch the world go by while the dogs explore. Quiet location but only a very short trip into the town centre with its pubs and historic port. The floorboards do have character, but no issues for us. Thanks for a great stay Janet.

Family getaway
This is a caricature filled property, in the middle of winter very surprising it was warm and kept the heat. Great for us and our small dog, even though there were lots of close homes it was very quiet. Our car was to big to go under the carport that’s wasn’t an issue for us. We have family in Echuca and would definitely stay again.

Quaint cottage with great facilities.
Very clean and well presented. Split system is an absolute bonus. Great location with access to many restaurants and entertainment venues. Only suggestion would be to fix the wire on the front door as my dog escaped through it though thankfully got her back in quickly.

Great animal friendly cottage
We recently spent a relaxing few days in Echuca with our two dogs. This cottage catered to all our needs. The dogs loved sniffing around the back yard and we enjoyed sitting on the front verandah in the afternoons enjoying the sun. Oh and I should mention the bath was lovely and the bed really comfy :) Thanks Janet

Cosy requiring work
Photos don’t accurately reflect property. Flooring in poor condition, splintering and gapping of floorboards, back sliding door difficult to open due to build up of dirt. No privacy in backyard due to small fence. House sleeps four but only a small table and two chairs in backyard. Dog poo found in backyard from previous renters, otherwise noise well stocked.

Decent cottage with room for improvement
My wife and I stayed with our 2 dogs who enjoyed the secure yard. On arrival we found the property appeared to be not cleaned and dusty and we had to request for a vacuum cleaner which we appreciated being dropped off the next day. There was also a couple of minor maintenance issues such as small gaps in the floorboards and a loose door handle in the bathroom. Would recommend for a short stay but maybe not a longer stay (we stayed for 5 nights)

Amenities
Enjoyable ~ property cosy good location, lovely new towels very clean but a couple of recommendations - a roll of toilet paper & hand soap would have helped on arrival after a long drive also pegs. bath mat and tongs. However, the biggest recommendation is we found the gas was not turned on only after enduring a cold shower - this should have been on or at least instruction sheet left to let us know on arrival to turn it on and light pilot.
