This home has all the features you need for an enjoyable stay in Melbourne. This property is well maintained, very clean with comfortable beds and lounge. Located within a short walk to numerous coffee shops, restaurants, pharmacy, supermarket and the Gardenvale train station. Our family thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. Communication with the property host Katie was easy and responsive. Highly recommend this property. ##### Vic A. Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 17 Jan 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Near impeccable cottage - like a trip back in time This charming little cottage feels like it belongs in the mid 20th century.. Tastefully decorated with features true to the period, this place is a delight to stay in. The absence of Wi-Fi may be a plus for some travellers. There were a couple of very minor maintenance items that could have improved the experience. Side gate could only be close with the key and the lock was difficult to operate. Equally the fly screen door latch was hard to operate as well. But these were very minor things in the context of the overall property ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ewan C. 13 Oct 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Lovely tranquil stay Lovely two bedroom property, very tidy on arrival and a warm greeting from Katie. Amenities all in perfect working order. Perfect amount of space for a small family, with Gardenvale Park a short walk away for some outdoor variety. Yard is very safe for small children. Be aware that the driveway is a little tight if you have a large car, but we were able to park a Carnival in there (just). Street is nice and quiet which makes reversing in easy. Wonderful visit, thank you Katie! ##### Ewan C.
