Relaxing, cozy and luxurious stay
An absolutely beautiful cottage with all the amenities you'd need for a relaxing stay. The location was absolutely stunning and the cottage was so beautifully made up. It was well and beyond our expectations and we couldn't be happier with our time here.

You won't want to leave...
Walking into this beautiful cottage nestled in its quiet bushland setting, and overlooking the enormous pond felt as if we were being embraced in a warm, comforting, and gentle hug.
It was a delightful place to celebrate our 50th anniversary.
Everything was spotlessly clean and so thoughtfully equipped and presented that we could immediately relax and feel welcome and at home.
We settled into enjoying the wonderful daily routine of the resident ducks and chickens.
One morning when collecting eggs I was very excited to discover it was so freshly laid that it still felt warm in my hand 🥰
The only downside came when it was time to leave, and we were already longing to return.
Thank you Linda and Lee

Delightful
Perfectly set up and furnished. Elegant, useable, functional and practical.
How good is the bath, designed and fabricated over 100 years ago - they go it so right!
Chickens to feed, ducks to view as they waddle, mist rising from the dam.
Stay, do not go wandering.

The Best, Cosiest Stay ♥️
We absolutely loved our stay at Naivasha cottage. From the already roaring fire when we came in, to the little touches like marshmallows and hot chocolate being provided.
We cosied up with hot drinks and watched the platypus and the ducks playing out the window.
We appreciated the well equiped kitchen which meant we could cook meals and really reset without having the leave the cottage at all!
The bed was the comfiest thing we’ve slept on in a while, so good sleeps were definitely had. Also the bath is an understated touch of luxury to wind down after an already relaxing day.

Perfect Rest and Recharge Location
Equal parts Nostalgia and Modern, this beautiful retreat was perfect for recharging the spirit. Naivasha Cottage was immaculate, well appointed and very comfortable. Linda's eye for detail certainly shone through.
As soon as I entered the space I felt relaxed; partly due to the serene decor colours & beautiful artwork and partly due to the wonderful vista viewed through the picture windows.
Tall eucalypts framing the property's dam created the perfect backdrop for many wildlife sightings...including that of the sensational endemic Native Hens (as well as Tasmanian Pademelons and Red-necked Wallabies). I had my camera out and about a lot during my 2 night visit...there was a lot to photograph!
Thank you, Linda, for creating a quiet and welcoming space...a place that i hope to return to one day.

Heaven on Earth
If your looking for peace and serenity this is the perfect place for you. From the beautiful view of the trees, the sound of birds, the wildlife (and the resident chickens), the most comfy cute cosy cottage with everything you could wish for. We arrived on a cold day and was greeted by a warm space with the combustion fire working its magic. We fell in love with this magical place and we will definitely be going back some day. Sadly we didn’t get to meet Linda the owner but none the less she kept us informed via messaging. The cookies were pretty yummy too! Thankyou so much for your incredible hospitality.

Amazing cottage and surrounds
What a beautiful place. The cottage itself was spacious and beautifully decorated with a sense of serenity and peacefullness. It was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed to rest, relax or cook our meals. We breakfasted on the fresh eggs, bread and yummy jam supplied. We could collect eggs from the friendly hens each morning. We didn't even turn on the tv as the birdlife and other wildlife on and around the the dam kept us entertained. It was only a few minutes drive back into Deloraine to wander around the market and shops. Linda was a wonderful, friendly host and I loved all the small, thoughtful touches around the cottage. It was suitable for couples and families, with plenty of room. I can't recommend this enough as a place to relax and unwind.

How's the serenity
What a beautiful place to get away from the hustle and bustle! Peace and quiet (minus my kids noise haha)
Linda was lovely and the personal touches to make us feel welcome really did the job!
The kids loved the chooks, ducks and turbo chooks! We checked for fresh eggs every chance we could and they enjoyed feeding them each morning... probably a little too much haha having 4 children to keep an eye on by myself was made so much easier because the area around the house was fully fenced! Great for the little ones and peace of mind!
Hope to be back again, minus the kids and with wine on hand lol
