About

Tranquil one-bedroom cottage on the Gold Coast Hinterland — the perfect peaceful retreat surrounded by wallabies, birdsong, and lush greenery. A fully self-contained, freestanding space ideal for couples looking to relax, recharge, and reconnect with nature — yet just minutes from beaches, shops, and cafes and theme parks.

Good to know

Escape to your own private cottage, set in a quiet, leafy part of the Gold Coast Hinterland. Just 5 minutes from Mudgeeraba Village, 10 minutes to Robina Town Centre, and 20 minutes to the beach — it’s the best of both worlds: peaceful and accessible. Inside, you'll find: A queen-sized bed with ensuite bathroom. A study nook with desk and chair. A walk-in robe. A fully equipped kitchen with oven, cooktop, and fridge/freezer. Air conditioning, ceiling fans, and a Smart TV with Chromecast for Netflix or You Tube. Beautiful linens and thoughtful touches throughout. Decorated with original artwork and treasures from around the world. Upstairs opens to a cosy lounge and kitchen area, perfect for a morning coffee or quiet dinner in. Step outside to your private patio and enjoy the peace of the garden — often visited by wallabies and a variety of native birds.

Other Details to Note

Our property is on a septic tank system, so please only flush toilet paper — it keeps everything running smoothly. WiFi is available under a Fair Use policy. We have a generous data plan, perfect for streaming and browsing — just no heavy downloads or online gaming, please. Our garden is often visited by wallabies, kangaroos, possums, and a colourful mix of owls, cockatoos, parrots, lorikeets, and kookaburras. Some guests love them — others, not so much! Either way, they are part of the natural setting here. As tempting as it is, please avoid feeding the wildlife — it’s not good for their digestion, and they can become dependent on handouts. Fun Fact - I'm a travel writer who has lived on three continents, and our cottage is filled with treasures from our journeys.

House rules

We love the peaceful nature of this area — and so do our neighbours! Out of consideration, please keep noise to a minimum after 9 pm, and we kindly ask that no parties are held at the cottage. SEPTIC SYSTEM: We are on an eco-friendly septic tank system, so please only flush toilet paper — no wet wipes or sanitary items, as they don’t break down and can cause damage. Also, please avoid using bleach-based cleaning products, as they disrupt the system. AT CHECKOUT: Before you leave, we would really appreciate if you could: Turn off all lights and the air-conditioning. Empty the fridge and place any leftover food in the rubbish. Wash, dry, and put away all dishes. Close all windows and lock the doors/ Dispose of rubbish in the bins under the top house carport. CLEANING: Excess cleaning, especially unwashed dishes, may incur an additional cleaning fee. Stains on linen or soft furnishings (e.g. blood, food) may result in a dry cleaning charge VISITORS AND GUESTS: Only guests listed in your booking are permitted to stay overnight. We can accommodate a third guest (child only) by request — a single bed is in the lounge, and bedding is only provided when this is arranged in advance. PARKING: There is one dedicated parking space on-site. If you need additional parking, please contact us before arrival. TV & STREAMING: Use the Kogan remote to access all free-to-air channels: SBS, Channel 7, 9, 10, etc. To stream Netflix or other services, use the white Chromecast remote. (Please note: Netflix no longer supports account sharing — you will need to log in with your own details.) KITCHEN & INVENTORY: We have stocked the cottage with everything you need, including cookware, utensils, and crockery. We kindly ask that you don’t take items like cutlery or household goods out of the home (e.g. to the beach), as they are easily misplaced. If something breaks — no stress! Just let us know.

It’s a good place to go, very quiet, there’s a cafe shop taste so good. Shelley is helpful for check-in, which is very easy to do. I think this place is really nice to stay!

I was there for a week. Lovely host. Great big space. I liked the layout and how private it was. Kitchen and living room are upstairs. I enjoyed being near Sprinbrook and Burleigh beach. I would definitely recommend.
