Cottage is in the most stunning setting. We visited in Autumn and all the leaves were showing their colours. The house had sufficient heating, it did take a couple of hours to warm the house after arriving as it was very cold, after having dinner at the pub we came back to a warm house. The whole village is like a movie set and photos dont do it justice, you pay for the experience to escape to a picturesque village. The house has everything you need to be comfortable, its clean and the gardens are so beautiful. The experience of staying in a historical house and the history our kids and us learnt really made a great family get away and experience.

It felt like staying overnight in a piece of history, deeply rooted in Australian culture. The renovated bathroom was very pleasant after our 20km trail.

“The house is old and beautiful but there’s a difference between old and unclean, it’s a shame at over $300 a night to be”
So close to town, so peaceful and tranquil, the old charm was beautiful

“Idylic cottage with history, charm and every convenience.”
Perfect location, perfect cottage, gorgeous town! The cottage is original but maintained, apart from the bathroom which is conveniently and tastefull modernised. Love that it's dog friendly too. The yard is huge and gorgeous, the sounds of the birds and the stream separating the property from the street are idyllic, and you're a short walk to the shops. The house, like the town, is oozing with local history. You'll have everything you could need, and the host is super lovely and easy to communicate with. We will DEFINITELY be back!

“Genuine old gold town place. Will be back in summer for the trail walks!”
Wallhalla is a genuine old town experience with mostly heritage buildings buried in bushland. Complete remote bush getaway. The Cottage was 1871 built with enough mod cons to be comfortable but not totally at the expense of the "old charm". Really loved it! Unfortunately the power went out on the first night(regional outage) and wasn't forecast to be on for a while. Fiona was very reasonable and gave us a full refund on the 2nd night without any fuss.😊
