Gum nut cottage is lovely. It’s spacious and well set up with everything you need, including a coffee press and pantry staples. I would definitely stay here again.

Excellent property and a reasonable price and a prime location. Such a wonderful home, so much room with wonderful facilities. We only had 2 but 4 people would be perfect.

The property was good although an odd design. I.e the bathroom is on the opposite side of house to bedrooms accessed via the kitchen.
We used the blanket warmer and portable heater to keep the room warm as we couldn’t get the fireplace started so the rest of the house was cold.
We had to wash and return all used dishes and cutlery to their original location otherwise incur a fee.
It was an old property but well maintained and had everything we needed. Bedroom was comfortable and shower was hot.

Good value and close to everything
Clean and orderly , plenty of kitchen cooking equipment. Close to both the town center and also the tavern.
Beautiful view of the mountains even not being on the waterfront.Only suggestion would be a highlight strip on the steps to the loo. Will stay again for sure

Nice location, average cottage
We liked that we were so close to the National Park.
The electric stove & cooktop were terrible- extremely hard to cook on.
There were no basic amenities-like hand soap near the toilet or kitchen sink.
The fire was nice but only two pieces of wood so didn’t stay lit for too long (even with the flu closed).
My friend had the bunk room and woke up with an extremely sore back the bed was so bad.
And one towel each wasn’t great for long hair.
