This is a house in the midst of nature where you wake up to kangaroos nibbling on grass and emus strolling outside the window. The house is well equipped and close to trails and walking distance restaurants. Thanks Jennifer for having us. We enjoyed our stay alot.

A lovely cottage full of character. Perfect location to Halls Gap only a 5 minute walk away. Large front yard with a fire pit, the cottage set back from the main road so it is very quiet. So many small details to help the stay more comfortable. Caters to family stays with lots of books and games for all ages. Heating was great with wood heater, inverter, and wall heaters.

This cottage perfectly fulfilled my needs. Wonderfully tranquil, excellent value, and a great location from which to explore the Grampians. No wonder the local wildlife make it their home.The Kookaburra cottage (or the Manna House) will now be my place of choice whenever I return to the Grampians. By the way, Mount Abrupt is a corker of a hike.

The property is beautiful and clean. My daughter loved the bunk bed and was super delighted. The property is central to the halls gap town & visitor centre and the hotels are close by. The lookout points are also close by and very relaxing. I loved the fireplace. The kitchen is well-equipped with almost everything you need if you are planning to cook. I would love to come back to stay at this property again. Thanks a lot, Jenifer for hosting us at your Kookaburra cottage.

The cottage is perfectly located a short walk from the centre of Halls Gap. There was plenty of space for two adults and two teenage boys. It was pretty cold the weekend we were there, only a couple of degrees overnight, and the cottage does get a little chilly. Once the wood burning stove has been going for a couple of hours though, the place is quite cosy, and there are electric heaters as well. Good cooking facilities and a nice large kitchen and lounge were appreciated. Kangaroos in the garden were a hit with our international guest! Overall, a lovely stay.
