The property though old was neat and tidy. The area was very peaceful and the fact that we were able to bring our dog with us was great. We were booked in for two nights but had to leave early.

Peaceful location

We enjoyed a 2 night winter getaway at Maeburn Cottages. Dorothy was lovely, and kindly allowed us to check in 30 mins early. The cottages are in a very quiet location. Our cottage was nice and clean and we found it to have everything we needed for a short stay. Electric blankets on all the beds were a bonus for a winter stay. The accommodation is also dog friendly and the cottage verandah can be secured by a small gate, which we appreciated.

The property was great. We received terrific support from the owner. The grounds were very well maintained, the cottage was spacious, clean and all the amenities were in good working order. The cottages were fairly centrally located, only minutes from all the town centre and other venues. Short drive to Lakes Entrance and Bairnsdale. Really enjoyed our stay.
