Northern Kosciusko NP visit

Excellent value for money. Was perfect for my son and I while we explored the area. Air-conditioning was most welcomed and plenty of room. Booking process and communication very straightforward.

Awesome family summer short getaway

Pether Cottage was clean and very comfortable for our short getaway. It is close enough to Yarrangobilly Caves for our planed activities and to Tumut for evening meals the location was great for us.Talbingo itself was so peaceful for evening walks and a short drive up to power station had some awesome views of the surrounding areas.We were very happy with David who answered all our questions as we never travelled with our dog before and the property was great for all of us.

Interesting

Comfortable enough ; garden with grapes, plums, & a peahen (& her chicks), make the stay unusual ; location is good . . near the Talbingo Golf Club, where the Chinese Restaurant has a good list of dishes . The Tumut 3 Dam & the artificial beach, yatching & swimming area are worth visiting .

Cosy little cottage

We enjoyed staying at Pether Cottage. The bedrooms are very warm with Daikin heaters. The hot water from shower/bath came instantly which made bathing little children very easy. Talbingo is a lovely town to stay and only short drive to Mt Selwyn snowfield. Pether Cottage is very close to the Country Club and the restaurant there serves very good Chinese food too!

Great location for high country exploration.

Have stayed at Pether Cottage many times over the years and always enjoyed the experience. This time was visited by the peacock and several kangaroos on front lawn. Despite the frigid conditions outside the cottage is always warm, cosy and comfortable. My Collie dog loves lying round big backyard and never jumps the fences. Great value for money.
