We have stayed at Maydena before but this was our first visit to Riders Cottage. It was perfect for us.
From the moment we arrived, everything was easy, well signed posted and beautiful. The keyless lock is great. The cottage is within one block of the mountain bike park, but in a ‘no through’ road, so it’s very peaceful. The garden is pretty and relaxing, with a great deck overlooking the gurgling creek.
The cottage is very comfortable, well furnished and spacious. The kitchen is well equipped and the oven is fairly new and works very well. The only difference is that there’s now 1 fridge, and not 2 as in the photos, so that may affect how much food you can take. We shopped at New Norfolk on the way there.
It was great to have a fully functional laundry at this point in our trip, and the instructions were all provided. We had a great time staying at Riders Cottage, and enjoyed Maydena very much. Highly recommend Fiona as a host and the cottage. We’d love to stay again!
