Family-friendly holiday rentals in Australia

I loved staying here! It was perfect for my quick trip to Melbourne, a comfortable 2 bedroom with an awesome sky deck to watch the city from. Alix and Taj have plenty of recommendations for nearby restaurants and things to do!

Peaceful surrounds. Really helpful host. Loved the spa and pool. The whole experience was excellent.

First thing you notice as you pull up to the cabin is the stunning view off the mountain. The cabin is tucked into the bush making it a private and discreet little getaway. We watched the sunset daily from the spa which was amazing. The cabin itself was a very nice touch also, well maintained and presented with everything you need to make a special relaxing getaway. From playing tennis, going for a bush walk or relaxing by the fire, Inala was the perfect getaway and a place we would feel privileged to visit again in the future.

We loved our stay, very secluded, cozy and romantic. Loved the scenery and homey touches. The hosts Vicki and Roger were awesome, would stay there again!

The apartment was clean, tidy and well presented. Located perfectly for shopping, restaurants and a good night out. The bed was comfortable, which was a big plus to come home to. If you are in the area for an event or just to unwind this place is well worth considering.

Exceeded all our expectations, the cottage oozed charm and made you feel right at home. All our needs were catered for in the kitchen. The wood heater worked a treat with great dry wood. The view is next level you could waist your day away looking at the ever changing mood of Mother Nature. Would highly recommend and we will be returning.

An exceptional place to stay! Great apartment- very kid-friendly with a warm, welcoming feel. The location is super convenient, with a short and easy tram ride to the city. Perfect for families or anyone wanting a relaxed stay close to the action. 🏙️👨‍👩‍👧‍👦🚋

Loved our stay. Amazing views. Will definitely be back!

The house is exactly as described, beautiful and cozy. Jen was flexible and kind, Charlie is a very cute dog. Highly recommend.

I cannot put into words how beautiful Moosehead Lodge is. Matt and Rachel have gone above and beyond to create a space that is peaceful and comfortable, and the effort shows the second you pull into the driveway. If you're after a getaway to disconnect from the world and reconnect with yourself and loved ones, this is the place to come to. The beds are comfortable, the fireplace is warm and the nature surrounding is heaven. The house guide was an awesome way to know everything you need to know. And the recipes were such a nice touch! Thank you again for such a beautiful stay! P.S. the woodfire pizza oven is incredible!!

From the moment we stepped in we felt welcome, comfortable and clean modern accommodation, with a few little sneaky snacks to welcome us. Thank you for a great stay.

Cosy little cottage amongst peaceful bush land. Beautifully decorated with a lovely atmosphere. We loved every minutes of our stay!

Jane and Phil were great hosts, friendly and helpful. Their accommodation had great views over Glaziers Bay. It was in a quiet, country location. The cabin was spotlessly clean and had all the amenities you would want. A choice of a lovely log fire and air conditioning. My wife and I wouldn't hesitate to book again when we next visit Tasmania.

The cottage was an absolute gem! Stunning view across the farmland to the mountains, so peaceful and tranquil. The cottage was bigger inside than the photos showed but still had the lovely cosy feel of a farmhouse. The outside patio was so lovely with all the plants creating privacy. We used the chiminea at night with a glass of wine and soaked up the atmosphere. The bacon and eggs provided were such a lovely touch. Comfy bed and lovely hot shower. A very functional space. The grounds of the property are just stunning along with the rustic outbuildings. Gary met us and showed us around even though we arrived very late. Close to Kalbar and easy access to all the Rim has to offer. Thank you Gary and Claire.

What an unbelievable gem hidden away in the trees. Bud (🐶) & I couldn’t have had a more peaceful week away at Fleur & Mike’s stunning loft. From watching the sheep out of the kitchen window (or from the shower when I was quiet enough), to the thoughtful, kind of romantic, cabin decor. We felt so at home, whilst also feeling so removed from the city - which is exactly what we were looking for. The highlights for us were walking into a toasty fireplace lit for us by the wonderful Sarah, the open-door morning showers, strolls around the land, and the dance parties inside at night with the sound system up loud. Thank you again for having us, we’ll be recommending to everyone.

Lovely overnight stay. Beautiful and clean space with lots of dvds. Super comfortable really enjoyed our stay

Tommy was a responsive host and everything was as advertised. Overall great location, clean. Not sure if from carpet cleaning but there was a smell when I entered which opening the doors to air helped to improve it. If I were to nitpick, the shower isn’t the best with water pressure, but overall I enjoyed my stay.

We stayed 6 nights after booking at short notice for a family funeral. At arrival we were greeted by a perfect selection of breakfast provisions plus a few little treats. The location was great for us to explore the area by car but we also walked into Fremantle. We cooked our own dinners, washed our clothes and had everything we needed. Off street parking was perfect for our hire car. The ducks in the yard where Trish lives were an added bonus! I highly recommend staying here.

Loved this place. Definitely the best accommodation I have stayed in Melbourne.

Thank you Ellen. We really enjoyed your beautiful Gardener’s Cottage. So close to town and walkable to our favourite restaurants. The work you have put into the cottage and thoughtful hospitality were so welcome and enjoyed. We appreciated the amenities you provided and would love to return!

Great little cottage to escape from life for a few days. Quiet and cosy but with everything you needed. Central to head to close by towns and wetlands to discover the area. Days trip to Bright was amazing while a day tour around g the area including Glenrowan and the Winton Wetlands was full of surprises. Will be back later in the year for sure! Oh and the puppy dog’s lead by Max made the trip feel even more like home.

Absolutely magical stay, we didn’t want to leave. Such a beautiful space that had everything we needed! The beds were incredibly comfortable, the kids loved the pool, kitchen was really well equipped and the location was perfect for us as we had a wedding right around the corner. 5 mins from the beach and cafes too. Will hopefully be back for another weekend stay soon!

The stay at Ollie’s was so great: perfectly located in central Sydney with a stunning rooftop with a view on the bridge and Opera: a dream for anyone that has never seen Sydney. Ollie was so nice with us and let us drop our luggage early, and was always making sure that we did not need anything. Definitely recommend staying there.

The photos of this place don't do it justice. It's really lovely and decorated so tastefully. The check in instructions were clear and easy, and our hosts were lovely and kind. An easy walk to the general store and pub, breakfast out on the deck, excellent and easy to use technology, and a really peaceful and lovely stay. Thank you for having us!
