A delightful surprise
We were so happy when we arrived and discovered the cottage was in a beautiful garden! It was quiet and peaceful even though we were next door to a cafe Everything had been thought of right down to the bath salts which I used each night in the large bathtub! We enjoyed our stay very much and Bronwyn was very helpful before and during our stay and left us some goodies in the fridge which was very generous Thank you for making your cottage available for us

Thank you!
We had a wonderful week in this quaint, clean cottage. We enjoyed visiting Hanging Rock and hiking in the area, as well as exploring the intriguing towns in the region. The garden is so beautiful to look out on from the cottage windows and also to wander through. I can highly recommend for a relaxing and comfortable stay!

Nandi Cottage Get Away:)
What a relaxing 2 days we spent at Nandi Cottage. The property was immaculately presented and had everything we needed for a cosy stay. We really appreciated the breakfast provision, the little snacks and the fresh fruit straight from the garden. Perfectly located we were able to nip next door to the cafe / store as needed - the hotel being a short stroll was an added bonus!

Super cosy, comfortable, clean and hospitable
Second visit to this venue. The residence is self contained, well decorated and appointed and has a seperate galley kitchen with full kitchen amenities. In addition to that Rebecca leaves wine, breakfast - eggs, butter, jam and freshly baked bread! I was also invited to make use of the beautiful and expansive garden. The residence has a wood heater that heats the space and makes it really cosy - there is an unlimited supply of wood provided to keep you toasty. The PO/coffee shop up the road makes great coffee and there is plenty to do in the area..... or curl up on the sofa in front of the fire and read a book. If you are looking for a cosy and relaxing weekend, look no further......

PJ and Rebecca are great hosts who's hospitality, kindness and generosity will ensure your stay is memorable. Not your average get away accommodation experience. We can't recommend Nandi Cottage highly enough.
