The real fire i We arrived on Friday evening and instantly fell in love with the wonderful cottage. The real fire in the lounge is gorgeous, and an absolute joy to stoke! We constantly discovered antique items, dotted in various rooms, and all of them seemed to be very clever designs, especially those found in the kitchen. The unique furniture and huge beds were a pleasure to use, and we found the cottage to be very well equipped. We will definitely be visiting again in the future, and we're looking forward to it already. We were sad to leave today. It's a wonderful cottage, in a beautiful part of the world. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kelly D.

We loved the wood fire and the big bath great for thawing your muscles after a big hike. Fully equiped kitchen allowed us to cook all our dinners in the evening and the big back windows proved impressive for the morning sunrise. Don't be alarmed by the possums tap dancing on the roof as the wildlife comes alive in the night. We were worried about heating but the bed had an electric blanket and there was a great gas heater in the main room. Would definitely stay again.

Decked out in vintage Australiana and with a treetop view that you'll find it hard to leave. Our German shepherd had a great time sleeping by the fire. ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Shearwater Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Shearwater-Hotels-Shearwater-Resort.h11114220.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Southside](https://www.expedia.ca/Southside-Edmonton-Hotels.0-n6057886-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Courtyard by Marriott New York Manhattan / Central Park](https://www.expedia.ca/New-York-Hotels-Courtyard-By-Marriott-New-York-Manhattan-Central-Park.h7017732.Hotel-Information) > > [The Copa Cabana at Copacabana](https://www.expedia.ca/Copacabana-Hotels-The-Copa-Cabana-At-Copacabana.h33554165.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sebel Whitsundays Airlie Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Airlie-Beach-Hotels-At-Blue-Horizon-Resort-Apartments.h2650727.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Fernie](https://www.expedia.ca/Fernie-Hotels.d181765.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Milan](https://www.expedia.ca/Milan-Hotels.d180012.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [The Barrington Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Halifax-Hotels-The-Barrington-Hotel.h27989.Hotel-Information) > > [Fairmont Resort Blue Mountains MGallery Collection](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels-Fairmont-Resort-Spa-Blue-Mountains.h522363.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Edmonton](https://www.expedia.ca/Edmonton-Hotels.d180002.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Bonnie Doon Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Bonnie-Doon-Hotels-Bonnie-Doon-Hotel.h20516057.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Sao Paulo (GRU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/gru/toronto-to-sao-paulo) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Orlando (MCO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mco/toronto-to-orlando) > > [Flights from Grande Prairie (YQU) to Comox (YQQ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yqu/yqq/grande-prairie-to-comox) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/yyz/edmonton-to-toronto) > > [Flights from Pearson Intl. to TYO-All Airports](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/tyo/toronto-to-tokyo) > > [Flights from London (YXU) to Kelowna (YLW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxu/ylw/london-to-kelowna) > > [Flights from Prince George (YXS) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yxs/yvr/prince-george-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Detroit (DTW) to Ottawa (YOW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dtw/yow/detroit-to-ottawa) > > [Flights from Tampa (TPA) to Montreal (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/tpa/yul/tampa-to-montreal) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Xianyang (XIY)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/xiy/toronto-to-xian) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Vancouver (YVR)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yvr/toronto-to-vancouver) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Athens (ATH)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/ath/toronto-to-athens) ### Activities > [Things to do in Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Things-To-Do-In-Sydney.d4057.Travel-Guide-Activities) ### Packages > [Ontario Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Ontario.d11178.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Punta Cana](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/theme-vacations/all-inclusive-vacations/601906/Punta-Cana) > > [Europe Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Europe.d6022967.Destination-Travel-Guides) > > [Westminster Bridge](https://www.expedia.ca/Westminster-Bridge-London-City-Centre.d508423.Vacation-Attraction) ### Vacation Rentals > [Sudbury Vacation Rentals](https://www.expedia.ca/Sudbury-Vacation-Rentals.d6127346.Travel-Guide-VacationRentals) ### General > [Visit Yorkville](https://www.expedia.ca/Toronto-Yorkville.dx6151271)
