Lavender Cottage Get away
Wow!! Close to river for walks, 10 minutes walk to Goolwa main street, but very quiet in the accomodation. Beautifullly appointed, clean with all one needs for a stay. We did not want to leave the property it was so inviting, light, spacious and calming. Ideal for say 3 couples, we did not use all the space as it ended up only being the 2 of us as our friends could not come because of illness. Would highly recommend and we met Dianne as we were leaving - a great host!

Lavender Cottage was a pure delight from start to finish. Very welcoming, clean and nicely supplied with some delightful extras. A really lovely welcome Xmas basket greeted us and comfy beds were a bonus. Loved the high bench tops no stooping or strained backs for us. Highly recommend this PERFECT holiday let. Bravo Dianne.

Perfect Getaway House
Our group of four friends enjoyed a lovely and relaxing weekend getaway in this beautiful property. Absolutely stunning garden with multiple spaces to sit and enjoy the space. The beds are very comfortable and all linen is high quality. The home is well represented by the photos and if anything is even better in real life. Lots of lovely little touches and all the pantry and fridge basics (and more) are provided. Absolutely recommend this home, we will definitely return.
