When I booked The Cottage I wasn’t sure what to expect - so often the magic of AirBnB online images & expectation doesn’t quite meet reality ..
We have been going to Byron for Holidays from Sydney for years and staying in various places in town . We wanted to try something different and and came across The Cottage in the Byron Hinterlands.
Skye , our hostess directed us to call her as we arrived at her property and greeted us personally .
She made us feel comfortable and gave us a brief tour of her beautiful cottage and showed us where everything was and was helpful recommending restaurants in town and local markets and shops in case we wanted to cook . She made us feel comfortable and relaxed having as much or as little interaction with her as we wanted . We felt we had absolute privacy at all times.
The Cottage is a 2 bedroom luxury nirvana set on the most magical Byron hinterlands property .
There was chocolates , local dips, ice cold Champagne and fresh orange juice in the fridge , assorted produce that grew on the property and fresh flowers to greet us on arrival.
Skye offered to have her staff or her, tour us the through the property if we felt like it and left us to feel completely independent and comfortable to explore our surroundings with as much or as little interaction as we wanted.
The Cottage has been furnished with the kind of effortless detailing and quality that’s rarely found in a rental. French Market vintage finds are mixed with modern touches to create an escape to property life with every comfort one could think of considered . It’s really great.
We ended up going to the local market and bought some local produce and cheese and cooking ingredients so we could spend more time at the property.
The Cottage at Windaboo was instantly relaxing and made us feel so at home.
We can’t wait to come and escape again !
