About this house rental
Located on a quiet country lane 4 minutes from the quaint township of Berry and the iconic Seven Mile Beach, this well-appointed, comfortable 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage overlooks a dairy farm with rolling green pastures and distant hills.
Berta's cottage sleeps up to 6 people. Linen and towels are included, and many extra touches to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. The cottage is on 3/4 acre of garden with a covered gazebo with wood burning BBQ, a games room, herb garden, fruit trees and fragrant flowers, and is surrounded on 3 sides by farmland.
Berry is a vibrant village with a diverse range of cafes & boutiques. The cottage is close to many activities including walks, swimming and surfing, fishing, canoeing, golf, wine tasting, markets, great restaurants and stunning rural scenery.
The two double bedrooms open on to the north-facing verandah at the front of the house with outdoor furniture - the perfect spot to enjoy the peace and quiet and spectacular rural views while enjoying a freshly brewed coffee or glass of wine. The third bedroom with 2 single beds overlooks the farm next door.
The well equipped kitchen boasts a country pantry equipped with a coffee machine and pantry essentials including oil, specialty tea and coffee.
The lounge room offers comfortable lounges, recycled and eclectic furniture with a cozy wood combustion fire perfect for cool Winter evenings, and air conditioning for the warmer months.
Two bathrooms are offered with toiletries, one with a walk in shower, the other you may enjoy a leisurely bath looking out the large picture window.
Berta's Cottage check in time is 3 pm and check out time is 10 am. Other times may be arranged when available.
Berry is a delightful popular holiday destination with wonderful cafes and shopping. Don't forget a visit to the Berry Markets (4th Sunday of the month), there are other markets each week in nearby towns. Take a drive to nearby attractions including swimming at Seven Mile beach at Shoalhaven Heads or Gerroa, the Blow hole at Kiama, whale watching at Jervis Bay, canoeing and lunch at the Kangaroo Valley, or Cambewarra Mountain lookout. For the more adventurous, the Coast walk from Gerringong to Kiama - the views will take your breath away.
Wineries and restaurants abound in this beautiful region. Enjoy a casual lunch or pizzas at Mountain Ridge winery, or lunches in Berry at Hedgehogs, The Garden, Il Locale Gelato cafe, and dinners at the Berry Hotel, Indika Indian and the Post House. In Gerroa we love seafood at the Blue Swimmer Restaurant, in Gerringong lunch at Sea Vista or The Hill, or for great vegetarian, The Perfect Break by the Surf Shop.

We and our dog, Sandy, enjoyed our stay very much. The cottage was situated in a lovely rural area overlooking dairy farmland. We enjoyed the tranquillity, garden areas and surrounding places to visit. We look forward to staying again.
4.8
The cottage is set in beautiful grounds and very comfortable. The kitchen, especially, was very well stocked. It is also nicely located, very close to Berry but also on the road to Gerringong which we loved too. Thanks for the dining recommendations - we used them for both lunch and dinner! Thanks for such a lovely stay.

A great little cottage to relax and unwind in. We particularly loved the front verandah with its wonderful view, and the close proximity to Berry was very handy.

A beautiful comfortable home in a fabulous location. This group of old friends thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.

We go away quite frequently. This was by far our most enjoyable trip to date.. Gorgeous cottage in a stunning setting. So peaceful and quiet. The cottage was equipped with everything we could ask for. We had 2 friends drop in and spent 2 days with us. Comfy beds, free wifi, Netflix and Prime available. Berry was a 5 min drive and we shopped till we dropped and stuffed ourselves with Devonshire teas. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed herself in the safe fenced off yard - she had a great time exploring. The pre-booking process was seamless and our host Rosemary was so kind and friendly. We will definitely be returning to this wonderful property 🙌 Thank you Rosemary 🙏

This is the type of place where you can really unwind. Beautiful country setting but close to beach and Berry. The house is immaculate and very cosy, and had all the little touches that make a stay special - bottle of wine & cheese in the fridge, bikes & hammock. We loved this place and will be back.
4.8
We just had a 3 night stay. Loved sitting on the verhanda looking at the view, sitting in the bath with the window open, log fires and delicious food in Berry. A perfect break.

We went on a family weekend and couldn’t have been happier with the accommodation. Gorgeous layout, clean and great area. Would definitely recommend this house
4.8
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Berta’s cottage. So lovely to find a great place to not only accommodate us but also our dog. With all the creature comforts. Rosemary has thought of everything to make the stay welcoming and comfortable. The wood fire was perfection. We look forward to visiting again.
4.8
This was our third visit to Rosemary's beautiful house. As soon as we stepped out of the car and took in the view from the deck we felt instantly relaxed.
The house is set on a lovely country road. Cows mooing and lovely goats as neighbours. All only 5 minutes from Berry town centre.
We can't wait to come back again soon.
4.8
The cottage was exactly as described in a beautiful peaceful country location. Perfect for a relaxing getaway. Close to Berry and a short drive to the beach, a perfect home base to explore the region.
4.8
We had a wonderful & relaxing time, our dogs absolutely loved the fenced garden. It is so good to be in the heart of the country but only 15 mins from the beach too.
Would definitely book again. The added touch of a local wine, cheese & crackers was lovely.
If (hopefully when) we return I would bring our dog fence/pen as whilst the back is fully fenced, the bbq deck area is at the side of the house open to the front and also the front deck which the bedroom doors open onto has two sets of steps down to the front yard, when out here we had to watch to make sure the dogs didn’t go straight out the drive onto the road as there is no gate. The one thing that did happen was that the gardener turned up around 5pm on the first night to mow, we had no notice and in fact just 10 mins earlier I’d been in the bathroom where the picture window would have given them a view of me in the shower rather than me seeing the country!!
4.8
Berta's Cottage was located in a quiet spot with a peaceful location and pretty outlook, yet a short 5 min drive into town. We paid to allow the dog to stay and it was perfect for him too. Very much appreciated treats left for us: jam, milk, wine, cheese and crackers. Thank you Rosemary you were a lovely host to deal with. One tiny suggestion a bath mat inside the bath tub for using the shower would make you feel a little more secure and less afraid of slipping. Thank you for sharing your property with us.

Our experience was wonderful! The location was amazing and the house was well equipped. We were surrounded by beautiful views as well as neighbouring farm animals which was lovely. My family and I enjoyed our stay as well as our two dogs who loved running around in the backyard that was fenced off and secure.
4.8
We enjoyed a 5 night stay at this comfortable, cosy and well-equipped holiday home. Evenings on the front deck looking out across farmland to the hills around Berry as the sun set were a highlight. It is a short and easy drive to either Gerroa and Gerringong and the coast, or into Berry township. We appreciated being able to bring our dog, however the fencing wasn’t adequate to contain a curious medium sized cattle dog cross. If you’re bringing a small dog, the backyard may be better suited.
4.8
This is my 4th time staying at Berta's Cottage. I love the quiet country setting, yet still so close to Berry township.
4.8
I loved the outlook over green paddocks and yet minutes from Berry and the Beaches. Comfy bed and pillow, 5 stars
4.8
Lovely little old cottage. Shower was terrible. Beds were comfy.
Close to town. Very close to neighbours and a bit noisy.
4.8
Overall, really good stay and nice inclusions like milk and muesli. However, it wasn't perfectly clean and the drainage in the bathroom is defective such that water goes everywhere when you shower.
4.8
Been coming to Berta’s for over 10 years and never disappointed.
4.8
Comfortable, thoughtful, well-equipped and such a peaceful neighbourhood. Could not have asked for a cosier stay in Berry! A very short drive to the heart of town or a decent walk if you’re feeling energetic. Surrounded by greenery and cute animals- absolutely wonderful. Plus incredibly thoughtful touches with the coffee machine, welcome nibbles, bath products and candles.

Recently spent 2 nights at Berta’s Cottage with a couple of girlfriends wanting a relaxing break. From the moment we drove into the driveway we knew we had booked the perfect property.
The outlook from the front veranda is beautiful. The house itself was very clean, beds were very comfortable. Kitchen well equiped.
The house is a short drive to Berry if you want to do a bit of shopping.
We are already planning another stay.

Berta's is a charming rural cottage which worked well for us and our two small dogs. It is well equipped and furnished - complimentary local wine, cheese and milk were very much enjoyed and the sunny front deck is perfect for lunch.

We have stayed at a few dog friendly places but very few are also acceptable for human habitation as well! This little cottage just outside Berry is not bad at all. Wooden floors and decent heating as well as decent outside area for dogs.
