Perfect comfortable cottage
Borough Cottage is an exceptionally comfortable family home. We loved everything about it including the very generous breakfast hamper, the comfy couches and cosy warm bed. Sitting on the verandah enjoying breakfast and watching the resident Eastern spinebill family was a highlight for us birdwatchers. Highly recommended.

Borough Cottage is beautiful, comfortable, well appointed and location is great. My only concern is that I am in my sixties and had trouble getting into the bath as the shower is over the bath. I don’t know if the owner would consider some adjustment to this , otherwise the cottage is magnificent.

Easy and comfortable
This property was such a lovely place to stay in. A real treat and communication with the property manager was rapid and clear. The house and garden are gorgeous, the breakfast treats left for us were very appreciated and it's a nice ten minute walk into town. My family and I enjoyed spending time both indoors and outdoors. I couldn't recommend this property highly enough.

Wonderfully Relaxing Stay
My mother and I stayed for a girls long weekend and had such a pleasant time. The hearing was already on when we arrived which was a relief from the cold outside. The house is super clean and has everything you need for your stay. The gardens are just beautiful. Even in the grey, cold, rain. If you are looking for a place to relax that is warm and inviting I would highly recommend this property

Beautiful garden
Beautiful garden and lovely historic home. We loved the location and the house but the mattresses on all of the beds were way to soft, need an update. Also the house had lots of lovely antique furniture but I felt it was a bit to crowded especially if you have children. One more issue was the bathtub. Given the distance off the foor it really should have a rail to hang on to when you climb in and out of. A couple of things but overall our stay was lovely and Gippsland is so very pretty
