Beautiful house and yard

Such a lovely cottage, 4 good size bedrooms and 2 living areas. Back garden and deck area was great to just sit out there and watch all the different birds that visit. Wood fire was wonderful and there was an abundance of chopped wood. The kitchen was well appointed and a good size. We really enjoyed our stay

A perfect family getaway

We are a young family of 4 from Perth. The house was clean, spacious, extremely family friendly and well equipped with everything you need for a perfect family getaway. It has 4 bedrooms and a big gated backyard. It could easily and comfortably accomodate 2 families. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Magnolia Cottage and would love to come back to visit again.
