Cottage holiday rentals in Lake Macquarie City Council

Beautiful place in peaceful neighbourhood. We had a lovely stay with everything you could need and all high quality

lovely little place clean and well maintained in a quiet area. They left bacon and eggs and a few other goodies for us to enjoy which was very much appreciated. Spa was lovely and clean unfortunately we didn't get a chance to use it. Highly recommend for staying and exploring the Hunter Valley.

Kerry’s place was perfect for us. The champagne and cheese platter on arrival was a great touch & the amenities provided are hard to find at such an affordable price

Applegum is just perfection! Lovely quiet and secluded location. Stunning outlook across the valley. So relaxing to wake up to cows mooing and have a beautiful view of the countryside. It was lovely to sit on the verandah and have a cuppa. The kitchen is well stocked with good quality pantry staples. We had a cold snap when we were there but the house felt cosy and warm thanks to the combustion fire as well as other heating options. Beautifully decorated with lovely attention to detail. The outdoor hot tub was an absolute winner! Thanks Jane for hosting us, we will definitely be back

This is my second time staying at this cottage and it felt like home again. Cecilia is warm and friendly and takes great pride in being a host. Everything is as described and the cottage has what you need for a short or long stay. It’s a great location in Stockton, with all amenities accessible on foot. This is one of the best, if not the best, Airbnb experiences I’ve ever had.

We only had a short overnight stay driving from Gippsland to the Sunshine Coast. It was a great place to relax and get a good nights sleep. Peter was very helpful and friendly and made our dog Poppy feel very welcome. The house was on a busy street but Peter has set up the house and surrounding gardens perfectly to provide a quiet place to relax and stay. Unfortunately we didn't get the opportunity to cook up the bacon and eggs which were provided but it looked delicious.

My partner and I stayed in Cadair Cottage 1 and we really really enjoyed our short time here. We were only here for a couple of nights but would have loved to extend our trip. There is so much to like about this place. Firstly, the surroundings are just absolutely beautiful - you are in nature and if you’re coming from a city landscape you’ll switch off so quickly. The cottage itself was spotless and had such a homely feel. All of the amenities you’d need with a fireplace, stove top, wifi, tv with foxtel and streaming - beautiful bedrooms and comfortable linen. The hot tub is also so nice to relax in and watch the sun come down. The yard (which is fully fenced) offers an expansive play area for your furry friends and our girl Peppa absolutely loved her time here too. She had so much fun. You are visited by neighbouring sheep and cows and it’s truly magical to watch them graze and trail by. Thank you, Simone - we can’t wait to return to this beautiful property again.

My partner and I absolutely loved our weekend at Jemma’s place - we spent the afternoon relaxing in the outdoor bath tubs and taking in the beautiful view before enjoying dinner by the fire pit in the evening. The house is gorgeous - beautifully decorated, comfortable and spotless. Jemma included so many thoughtful touches that made our stay even more special - including an amazing welcome hamper, a bath bomb and bubble bath, lovely soaps, candles, plush blankets and more. It felt like a very luxurious and relaxing sanctuary. And Jemma was lovely to deal with too, a very kind and generous host. We’ll definitely be back!

Sally's cottage was the perfect place for my partner and I to stay for the weekend. It had everything we needed and so much more! The space was spotless and had beautiful details throughout the room. It was clear that a lot of heart and care had gone into the space. It had lovely views over their property to wake up to and plenty of spots to enjoy it. On top of that Sally was a wonderful host! She checked in with us the day before with very clear instructions and made sure we had everything we needed. She also baked us some lovely goodies and had stocked us up with fresh eggs and milk. The perfect host and a perfect stay! We highly recommend Mindaribba Cottage and would love to go back if we are back in the area.

Barkala Cottage is an idyllic spot! The location, surroundings and house were all spectacular. It was the perfect spot to switch off from the world, breathe some fresh air, eat good food and just relax. I can’t wait for an opportunity to go back again in the not too distant future!

Amazing place. One of the best Airbnb experiences we’ve had. Peaceful and quiet with very comfortable beds and furniture. Excellent host who goes out of his way to make sure you have everything you need and want. Will happily leave you alone or keep you company and entertain you, if you prefer. Cozy fireplace. Modern bathroom. Awesome sauna and pool. Amazing views with beautiful sunrises and sunsets. Excellent fire pit. Clear views of the stars and the Milky Way. A perfect getaway.

We loved staying at the Riverhaus and cannot wait till the next time we return. Sheriden and Tom thank you so much for this airbnb! The layout, presentation, communication could not be faulted. We would highly recommend staying here.

Tanya’s place was a perfect B&B with actual breakfast provided (eggs, bacon, bread, OJ, milk etc). It was so spacious and great that it was pet friendly. It was walking distance to a few vineyards and very close to other wineries and activities. Highly recommend.

Great location. Lovely and homely. We thoroughly enjoyed our time away from the city in this really quiet and secluded home. Fully fenced so our fur baby could run around and play. Also enjoyed our walks by the water. A real time out. Thank you Yvonne 🥰

We had a wonderful time at Sally and Simon’s place. It was so lovely to have an enclosed yard for our active dog and to be able to let him run in their paddock off lead. The bed was comfy and they even had chromecast set up for movie night! We enjoyed using the fire pit and the freshly laid eggs from their chickens. Thanks for an awesome time! We’ll be back!

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home! The house itself is absolutely gorgeous and styled to perfection, creating such a welcoming and relaxing atmosphere. It was incredibly comfortable for our dog, and we loved how pet-friendly the space was. The location is fantastic as well – within easy walking distance to cafes and the dog beach, which was a huge bonus for us. The only downside was the traffic noise from the busy road outside. While everything else was perfect, this may be something to consider if your sleep is impacted by this type of noise. Overall, we had a great time and would definitely recommend it to others!

Such a cosy stay with everything you need !! 20-30 mins to shops, cafes and wineries.

We had such a wonderful stay at this beautiful lakefront property! The views were absolutely stunning – waking up to the calm water just outside our window was magical, as was the serene sunset. It was spotless, beautifully styled, and had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing two-night stay, including a cheese platter provided. It was the perfect spot to unwind, enjoy nature, and soak in the peaceful surroundings. We only wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a serene getaway right on the water!

Our stay at Sarah's was for 3 nights and was exactly what we expected. Very central location to get anywhere in Newy only 10mims to beaches. Several places to eat very close by and lots of recommendations from host. Beds were comfortable and place was very spacious perfect for relaxing after a busy day. Only complaints would be the WiFi which was not great, had to use our phone data instead and couldnt really use streaming on TV. The traffic from the main road was quiet loud throughout the night and early morning so if you're a light sleeper... Still I can highly recommend as the place was decent overall.

This place truly deserves 5 stars. Such a beautiful place and so well maintained. Feels just like home. Kim was very helpful and really appreciate the welcome cookies and Easter chocolates. It was a hit with the kids. The host was very proactive and available for anything we need. I would happily recommend this place to anyone.

Once again we had a fabulous short stay at our favourite Newcastle Airbnb, Salty Dog Cottage, only 4 days this time but wish we had longer. Cute cottage, comfy beds, super clean and close to everything we needed for our stay. Next door to the fabulous Gunyah Hotel where we enjoyed a couple of yummy lunches. Although there was a bit of reveller noise late on the Saturday night, the pub was a definite plus. We will definitely be back. Thank you Joanne and Mike.

What a gem! Our stay at this stunning cottage was faultless. Elizabeth was a fantastic host, great communication, very accommodating, and gave us excellent local tips (Toronto Hotel for dinner and Mizumi for takeaway were both great). We were spoilt with a welcome gift of wine and chocolate Easter bunnies and eggs, such a lovely touch. The cottage was spotless, beds were super comfy with beautiful linen, and the big fluffy towels, bathroom amenities made it feel like a luxury hotel. All the extras were thought of, oils and seasonings for cooking, even washing capsules and stain remover, a lifesaver when traveling with kids! We fished off the jetty daily (caught a Bream, Flathead, Octopus, Crab, Whiting), used the kayaks, and relaxed in the cosy TV room. We enjoyed the fire pit one night too, with wood provided. The cottage is even better than the photos. 100% recommend and hope to return soon!

The photos of the porch in a great sunny spot, and the back area for relaxing and eating out, do not do it justice. absolutely beautiful place. immaculate and one of the best places for the price we have stayed in

I cannot fault anything about this property, or Tracy as a host. Tracy's communication was exceptional, she also offered a 10am check in. When we did check in we were greeted with fresh pastry and cookies. We stayed at Tracy's place following our wedding, the location was superb, my wife and I literally walked to the accomodation from our ceremony. The location was great, we were able to walk to get coffee the next morning. Unfortunately I live really close to this accomodation, and we stayed here because we wanted somewhere nice for our wedding night, if I didn't live 10 minutes away, I would have zero hesitation with re-booking and enjoying Tracy's wonderful place again. Thanks so much Tracy for adding something so great to our wedding day.
