This holiday cottage was a perfect getaway for my 2 friends and I as it's only a short trip from the the city but felt like we were getting out of the city as well. There's lots of bush walks nearby for exploring too. Though it felt semi-rural it was nice to have the convenience of restaurants such as the Thai close by. The highlight for me was the peaceful views of the tree-tops from the balcony and visiting the nearby Araluen Botanical Park.
