Firewood's supplied free of charge. Air conditioning's also provided if you want quick and easy heating. The cottage is hidden down a 200 metre long sealed asphalt driveway into a clearing set around luscious subtropical rainforest. There’s a small steep section of the driveway but it has good traction for 2WD cars as it’s sealed with asphalt. The cottage is completely private with no neighbours around but you'll share the bush with an abundance of birdlife, if you're lucky you might see a koala but if you're unlucky you might get a leach (after heavy rain) - that's just the bush. It's a perfect location for an overnight stopover or for a few days to unwind in nature. If you don't want to completely disconnect from tech there's free wifi and a chrome cast TV. A landline is also provided if you don't receive good mobile phone reception that you can make outgoing local/national calls. There's lots of creeks nearby to explore only a 5 minute drive and the town and beach is only a short 15 minute drive away. If you have any special requests I'm always happy to accommodate. Pets are welcome free of charge. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Food and drink - Dishwasher - Microwave - Oven - Stovetop ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - TV ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming cats only - 3 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Designated smoking areas ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ## Similar properties ![Beach nearby, surfing, fishing](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/15000000/14740000/14737200/14737152/98561459.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Charlesworth Bay Beach Resort Coffs Harbour - Pool - Hot tub - Spa - Kids pool 8.0 Very good 1,002 reviews CA $206 CA $206 total includes taxes & fees Mar 9 - Mar 10 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-09&endDate=2026-03-10&selected=14737152&PinnedHotelID=14737152&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Outdoor pool, a heated pool, open 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM, pool umbrellas](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/8000000/7030000/7027200/7027186/c920f662.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Aqua Villa Resort Park Beach - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Parking included 8.6 Excellent 435 reviews CA $243 CA $243 total includes taxes & fees Feb 28 - Mar 1 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-28&endDate=2026-03-01&selected=7027186&PinnedHotelID=7027186&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![3 Bedrooms Executive Suite | Private kitchen](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/5000000/4320000/4315100/4315084/ddb2fd92.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Pacific Marina Apartments Coffs Harbour - Pool - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer 8.8 Excellent 627 reviews CA $259 CA $285 total includes taxes & fees Mar 1 - Mar 2 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-01&endDate=2026-03-02&selected=4315084&PinnedHotelID=4315084&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Fireplace](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/17000000/16140000/16138800/16138745/99adb7d7.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Lookout Mountain Retreat Dorrigo Mountain - Parking included - Free WiFi - Restaurant - Air conditioning 9.0 Wonderful 279 reviews CA $188 CA $207 total includes taxes & fees Feb 28 - Mar 1 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-02-28&endDate=2026-03-01&selected=16138745&PinnedHotelID=16138745&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/122000000/121260000/121259700/121259625/49395723.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Moonee Stayz - Bungalow 5 Moonee Beach - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet friendly 10 Exceptional 3 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-13&endDate=2026-03-14&selected=121259625&PinnedHotelID=121259625&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) [Compare similar properties](/Hotel-Search?startDate=2026-03-13&endDate=2026-03-14&selected=106093835&PinnedHotelID=106093835&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2&comparePropertyIds=106093835,14737152,7027186,4315084,16138745) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 2:00 PM Minimum check-in age: 18 ### Check-out Check-out before 10:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions Information provided by the property may be translated using automated translation tools ### Pets Pets allowed Service animals are welcome, and are exempt from fees Welcoming cats only 3 total pets ### Children and extra beds Children are welcome ### Events No events allowed ### Smoking Smoking allowed: in designated areas ## Important information ### You need to know Extra-person charges may apply and vary depending on property policy Government-issued photo identification and a credit card, debit card, or cash deposit may be required at check-in for incidental charges Special requests are subject to availability upon check-in and may incur additional charges; special requests cannot be guaranteed Onsite parties or group events are strictly prohibited Host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector with you on the trip Host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property This property is managed through our partner, Vrbo.

Feb 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Relaxing What a lovely cottage had a very quite and relaxing stay.The only negative would be it had a very strange and strong smell the whole time we where there. Mainly in the lounge and kitchen area. ##### Kim J. Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 6/10 Okay #### Christopher B. Jan 7, 2025 Liked: Check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful property and wildness This is a very cute little cottage with beautiful greenery all around. Very quick and easy check in and out. The only downside was it had a very unpleasant damp smell when you first walk in. There was a dehumidifier to help but it had to be emptied multiple times. This is definitely a laid back lifestyle. a few cob webs inside.There wasn't any itemised tea ,coffee or bread.General used jam, sauce and jar of coffee Tv reception wasn't very good. The stay itself was nice and the new fittings and appliances were lovely. abit unsure about the no certains at the start but it was nice waking up to the rainforest. ##### Christopher B.
