This was an oasis of peace during a 4 week trip. Off street parking so the hire car felt safe. Hosts helpful with check in which was easy. What was not to like about the inside - it was clean, fresh, had the space in the living/kitchen/dining area that was needed. Bedrooms with comfy beds. Bathrooms were good as were the washing facilities. Kitchen had the basics needed and the coffee provided was great. Walking distance to the 4 square store and town facilities. Some previous guests had written bad things like needing to leave by 10am.!! Those people obviously are self centred. You need time to clean and prepare for following guests.

Everything was great. Very decent size house with a large lounge/kitchen space, 3 big rooms, and 2 spacious bathrooms! Fire place with heaps of woods prepared in the garage. Fast wifi, oh, the last room, which is at the end of the corridor, doesn't get strong wifi, but it didn't really bother much. Really nice host with a prompt response. A few days before our booking, there was an unexpected road closure. I got worried and texted Mel. She was super helpful, giving all the details and information that she could get. From that information, she said that the road work would be done before my check-in date. And she kept me posted until the road work was finally done, which was really kind. (In the end, the road reopened even before the scheduled date.) We absolutely loved this place. So happy that we could make it to Franz Josef! As soon as we checked in, I contacted Mel to extend our stay, but sadly, it was already booked(no wonder!) I'm definitely coming back when I'm back in town next time =)

Looking for a vacation home?

Great for families or large parties, vacation homes are privately owned accommodations, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities, though breakfast might be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different than apartments.

    The puppy Frankie was such a nice treat to pat. We loved this and my 4 year old daughter thought it was the absolute best. I found the cottage very clean, loved the bedding. Parking was great just out back which makes it easy for carrying in bags. The serenity was amazing, the lawn was so green. The birds chirping in the trees! We just adored staying here and highly recommend it.

    Very clean and comfortable small holiday home estate a little outside the main drag of Franz Josef. Spacious self-catering accomodation, comfy bed, good bathrooms. Best to be in a car if you want to eat in the township itself.
