Manilla Cottage has 1 bathroom, there is also a 2nd toilet. Which is very handy when you have larger groups.

In 2019 we want to upgrade the kitchen with modern kitchen. This will include new fridge and stove / oven

Thanks Kalo for feedback. Manilla gets very little rain but Manilla had lots of rain, with Spring and sun the grass growth went crazy. We always listen to guests, return phone calls and respond to what is required to make guests have pleasant stay. Just be mindful with large groups to take short showers. Hot water checked next day and it was OK. Manilla has a lot to offer along with surrounding towns.

Thanks Pam for review of our Aussie Chillout at Manilla Cottage - Manilla NSW. We are an older style cottage. In last year we have got new fridge, stove / oven, lounge and bunk bed. Easy 10 minute walk to CBD and river just down the road. We are pet friendly.

Manilla Cottage is a 5 minute walk from town. It is also about a 20-30 minute drive to mountains and lakes. Beautiful areas for sightseeing.

Manilla is near Tamworth NSW, it is a small country town. It has around 2,000 residents. So if you like to get away from it all it is a great location. But Tamworth is a half hour drive away, it is a large town that has everything as far as shops goes.

We really appreciate feedback and taken on board guest reviews. We have made a hard decision and taken on new care takers for Manilla Cottage: Jess and Adam on Wednesday, 31st May 2017. From 1-5 June 2017 they thoroughly cleaned house inside and out as well as do yard. The thing I like is that they treat it as their own house. See specific cleaning comments in 1 May 2017 guest review. Addressed pillows with new pillow protectors. Stove has been cleaned. Bought new cookware and electric frypan. Threw out old ones that teflon coating was coming off. Also got new sandwich press, 4 slice toaster and jug on 31.05.17. Whole place has had thorough clean like a permanent rental changeover.

Thoroughly agree with comments above and must apologise. We live in the Hunter Valley about a 3.5 hour drive to Manilla Cottage. We trusted our previous cleaner to manage, keep an eye out and clean our property thoroughly. After refunds, pest control, cleaning issues, bad guest reviews and chances to improve cleaning, we had to make a tough decision and get new care takers: Jess and Adam. They have thoroughly cleaned the place from 1-5 June 2017 and addressed all the issues raised in guest reviews on 01.05.17 and 22.05.17. As owners we are going to visit and improve the property each visit. We do have an older style kitchen so when the budget enables it will be upgraded to a modern kitchen with a modern stove / oven. Difficult to give timeframe. IT IS READY TO RENT OUT AGAIN!

The caravan is a bonus in the back yard and acts like 3rd bedroom. About 5-10 minute walk to Manilla CBD, RSL and Bowls Club, Bean Away Cafe and Petrol Station. Fully equipped kitchen.

We try to keep our price reasonable to accommodate groups. We do adjust tariff for peak periods such as the Tamworth Country Music Festival.

We did get pest control done in January 2017 so rodent and bug issues have been fixed. We have had words with the cleaner and a thorough spring clean has been done since. We have had a few bookings since and they have been happy with their stay. We provided a full refund of $1,320. Manilla Cottage is a cottage which is comfortable. The photos do reflect the cottage. Later in 2017 we will do a living area upgrade with new kitchen.

Manilla Cottage needed some TLC. So arranged for cleaner to spring clean, handyman to do a few jobs and pest control being done on Wednesday, 18th January 2017. Got plans in 2017 to paint, put up new blinds and do a new kitchen and accessories. Looking forward to coming 3 weeks with guests coming for Tamworth Country Music Festival and Paragliding and Mount Borah.

We cater to preferred method of communication, either: phone, mobile, SMS or email or a combination of all communication methods. We are flexible with early check-in and late check-out on the proviso that there are no bookings immediately before or after your booking. Flexible with payment methods, either: Stayz Online Payment with credit card or EFT or Direct Deposit. Even cheques. Looking forward to Monday, 1st August 2016 when Reece Hawkins Photography is going to take some professional photos to show off Manilla Cottage.

Thank you regarding your experience with us as owners and our empathy for your situation. Guests need to read terms and conditions. Even though guests informed us day after they were meant to arrive and thus forfeit 100% of holiday rental due to terms and conditions. We refunded them 50% and gave them a rain check of the other 50% as they plan to visit the area annually with sporting competitions. In the past we have waived terms and conditions in favour of the guests at our other holiday rental accommodation due to fires and family matters.

Feedback taken on board Janice. Informed cleaner about dust and to be more diligent. We have a new DAIKIN inverter s/s a/c for heating and cooling the entire living area to replace the old worn wall units. They are more efficient and works great for the comfort of guests.

If you are from a busy city like Sydney, where there are millions of people. Going to a little country town like Manilla would be very different. Manilla has a population of 2,550 people. Country people are very relaxed and friendly. They are not in a rush to get anywhere, there aren't even any traffic lights in Manilla. If you find Manilla too quiet for your liking then Tamworth is less than a 30 minute drive. The road is fairly straight and not a lot of traffic on the road. Although sometimes there might be cattle grazing along the side of the road!

In the warm weather if you are looking for somewhere with water, there is Warrabah National Park, which has great swimming holes. Spit Rock Dam and Lake Keepit are also very close to Manilla.

Having the caravan in the back yard is handy for large groups. It can be used as a 3rd bedroom. You can have your teenagers out there so it acts as a second living area. It has 2 single beds, TV, small fridge, dining table with 2 small built in couches.

Rain has brought green to the country side. Nice scenery. Big front and back yard for kids and pets to play and run around. Manilla is a great alternative to staying in Tamworth. Only 45 km and 30 minute drive.

Trying to find accommodation near Tamworth in January isn't easy. As Tamworth holds the Country Music Festival every year. Motels and caravan parks get booked out early. The benefit of staying at Manilla Cottage is that it is a house, so there is space for family and friends. In the evenings you can have a BBQ and relax under the covered back verandah and unwind.
