A beautiful bush setting surrounded by parrots and birds of all varieties; very peaceful; a lovely spot within 5 minutes drive of Lakes Entrance. The best of both worlds. A special thank you to Peter who accommodated my special needs with pleasure.

One think to be mindful of is your Sat Nav (don't turn off before you get to Lakes Entrance town centre). You will end up being navigated through a four wheel drive track that resembles a roller coaster!! Drive into Lakes Entrance and then make your way from there.

A much needed birthday nature retreat, away from the daily hustle and bustle. It is good to be disconnected in a world where we are constantly on our phones. Personalized welcome by owner & attention to detail in cottage. Well stocked fridge, even little welcome cookies to greet you. Nitric Birds that comes so close to you, loved it. Seeds provided for birdfeeding too. Above all, loved how sustainable the cottages are. I felt right at home in Lilly Pilly the 2 nights I were there

Only thing I found a bit tricky is to maintain the right hot water temperature, but that wasn't a real problem. Just quick hot shower.

Very well presented cottage that is tastefully appointed and has lots of extras. The fridge is well stocked with breakfast goodies and i suspect the eggs are home grown. Lots of books and DVD's as well as free to air TV. Large bedroom and ensuite added to the comfort of our stay. The Kitchen is decently appointed making self catering easy. There is even some seed to host the visiting FIFO wildlife. The resident Alpachas seem to watch your every move and apparently don't mind the occasional slice of apple. Lovely couple of days.

Exceptional property, well maintained and had everything you could need for a comfortable stay. Located in a quiet secluded area surrounded by nature, but not too far from the main strip of town (~10 min drive). Peter was very welcoming and ensured he greeted me upon arrival. He explained the workings of the cottage and had some nice recommendations about things to do in town. Breakfast was provided and the cottage was surrounded by lot of beautiful birds and Alpacas. It even had an outdoor bath which was amazing. Loved everything about the stay. Highly recommended

Nothing. Only thing I'd like to mention is that this property does not have wifi and barely gets mobile reception; so if you are planning to do a working holiday, it might not be the best fit

I almost do not want to give a review since this place is amazing. The alpacas, the birds, providing birdseed, the incredibly fresh eggs, the location, the extremely nice cottage. All made for such a relaxing weekend getaway that I will never forget. My partner loves birds and the morning feeding really made her trip that much memorable. I really do hope that there will be time in the near future when we can book here again. The outside bathtub is a really nice touch for those brave enough to bathe outdoors.

It is so minor but the kitchen chairs are really hard. Otherwise there is very little that one can say negatively about this place. Be prepared for ants outside everywhere, but I consider that to be part of nature!

We really enjoyed how cozy and peaceful the whole cottage was and because of it we slept really well every day! We appreciated the plenty of animals as well which was adorable to see. The alpacas were definitely a highlight for sure, really fun to feed them!

Great location away from the madding crowd about a 10 minute drive into Lakes Entrance. Wonderful birdlife all around the property. Fantastic log burner with plenty of logs and kindling. Very comfy bed. Well appointed all round with lots of character. Great tips from the owner for places to see locally.

Nothing

The cottage we stayed in ("Lilly Pilly") was large, comfortable and intricately decorated. The style is that of a different time and may not be to everyone's taste (it is very ornate), however, the furnishings, rather than being vintage and perhaps old and tired, are new and vibrant and beautifully made. The cottages are on a rural property a short drive from Lakes Entrance and not within walking distance of any restaurants, nor is there a water view. On the other hand, sitting on the balcony overlooking the native forest resonating with bird calls was one of the highlights of our trip. The host was very welcoming and, yes, as suggested by some of the photos, there are alpacas in a field next to the cottages.

The quietness of the place. The bush setting is beautiful and the variety of birds that visit is amazing - waking to the sounds of bird song. The breakfast provided is generous and tasty. The decoration of the cottage is creative and thoughtful. The wood fire provides wonderful warmth throughout the whole cottage on a chilly night.

We like it just as it is.

Lovely welcome on arrival by Peter. Discussed facilities and history of the cottages. Maid us feel like we were on holidays straight away . Enjoyed the alpacas and wildlife around our lovely cottage .

Absolutely nothing . Have been telling family and friends about this golden secret hidden so close to lakes entrance .
