We spent four nights there and Lyn was so welcoming to us and our four legged traveling companion. The gardens are beautiful and the local French Cafe was fantastic - we ate there every day. Highly recommend it for people who want to get away from it all, but be able to do it in style. ##### Kareena A.

There are so many spots around the garden to sit and relax in, including on the back porch overlooking a brook. The cottage was clean, nicely decorated, spacious and comfortable, and had a great shower. We were grateful for the easy space to have our small dog along, too. The location is great- short drive into Tilba for local food and shops, beaches, hikes/walks, a winery/brewery down the road, etc. But you could easily just stay at the cottage and gardens for a couple of days relaxing. ##### Ashley R.

It was our first time to Tilba Tilba and the locate area of Tilba Central was a pleasant surprise. Lovely little locate pub with live music on Sunday lunch. The place to be. The little specialty boutique shops were gorgeous too. (Spent way too much money, I couldn't help myself)....I would return in a heartbeat. Thank you for a lovely weekend. ##### Maree A.
