Newly Refurbished as of September 2023. 1930s Cottage, wood fire, lovely high ceilings, beautiful fully enclosed back yard, and lockable indoor dog enclosure, just a walk to parks, river ramble and heritage walk, town centre, heritage park, Markets, and a short drive to wineries, beaches!
BADNo gas for bbq, stove starter didnt work and no matches available, microwave did not work, rats or possums in the roof and walls, overgrown lawn, blood stains on bed underlay. GOODHot water was very much appreciated after a long bike ride.
Had a very enjoyable quiet stay at this quaint rustic old cottage. Fully fenced back yard was ideal for our medium sized dog. Great location and all amenities provided.
Quaint little cottage with everything you need for a couple of days stay. Aircon heating was lovely as a bit chilly during our stay. Lounge room could do with another chair as only a 2 seater couch. Very clean and close to shops and cafe.
Old expected, good bathroom toilet, clean comfortable linen on bed found not as clean in bedroom corners and lounge room, sofa old not comfortable difficulty getting up and down as im a senior person with mobility issues this was a big negative also slopping of floors in bedroom difficult for me as well. Appreciated rail in bathroom and non slip mat in shower. Height of toilet good again sloping floors towards back of house. Sloping step at back door also a problem for me. Big negative was entry to gate where you park car huge big puddle to walk through to unload car our feet were very wet before we even got into the house to settle in. Appreciated bread and milk being left and cake unfortunately, we are lactose intolerant and prefer brown bread had already visited local bakery and had brought cakes and pastries with us.
Nice old house. Good location. The only heater was in the living room. So the rest of the house was very cold. Toilet was a long way from main bedroom.
We decided to have a last minute get away to do some things in Bunbury, so needed a pet friendly location. House is cute and did the purpose of a short get away. Ellen the host allowed us to check in early which was lovely.
The bed in the main bedroom was the worst bed I have slept in , the mattress did not fit the frame and we had to prop up the right hand side of the mattress to level it.There were no dish cloths or tea towels.The house was set up to accommodate 4 people but only had lounge seating for 2.
The area was great close to many other ares of interest to us.Mentions recently refurbished in the advert for the property, I would disagree with this statement as some new flooring doesn't cover a refurbish in my take on the word. The kitchen cabinetry was very run down and very dirty interior shelving, lacking a full set of saucepans for cooking. 1 milkpan & lid 1 medium pan no lid in grubby condition.The lids on the kitchen and bathroom bins were filthy and the ragged net curtain in the bathroom would be better off being removed. I personally would prefer to pay a cleaning fee rather than feel the need to clean thing yourself on arrival, which I did. Just because the charge for a stay is a very reasonable price doesn't mean you expect dirt and grim thrown in for free.Some nice touches around the interior with vintage looking pictures, collection of old magazine and books.
Lock box code didnât workHouse operation manual non existent No operating info on stove and only 2 burners workedNo teatowel, dead matches left on table, used crockery in cupboard Bed in main bedroom-mattress ensemble with slated bed base in between the base and top inside a larger bedframe making it difficult to exit the bed without getting your foot caught. Bedsheets used.Couldnât open the front door, curtains rotten.Toilet had been used and left. Tampon wraps left.House in good location but very poor condition. Possums and rats. Booked for two nights. Left at first light next morning. Definitely not renovated in 2023z
The cottage is a little old but other than the quaintness all good. Property manager very friendly and communication is great. Loaf of bread and milk in the fridge on arrival was a bonus especially since I arrived on a public holiday and shops were closed, thank you. Only problem I had was my dog⊠she jumped the 4 foot fence into the neighbourâs yard on the morning we were checking out.
We had the most perfect stay at Connies Cottage. We have so much gratitude for the host who couldnât have been more accommodating to my messages and request. Looking forward to booking our next stay. The resident possum was a laugh! As we live in the bush and have our own resident possums, it didnât bother us.
Les points forts : Communication, emplacement, exactitude de lâannonce
Cute little cottage.
This cute cottage Had everything we needed. The host also kindly stocked the fridge with milk, bread and a lovely Chocolate Swiss Roll. Not far to the Boyanup Tavern for a great meal.
