If you think the description of this property sounds good. Trust us. It's ever better. If you are looking to have a wonderful place to stay where you can experience Australia all around you, this is the place. Kangaroos in the yard, birds singing in the trees, a magnificent view across a largely undisturbed valley. The hosts provides everything you need for a comfortable stay, plus a lot of unexpected amenities. They are right up the hill from you if you need anything...and a million miles away if you don't. The cottage has so much unique character. It's just hard to say enough nice things about our stay at Harley cottage.

A magical place to unwind for a week. Quiet and peaceful. Hartvale Cottage has rustic charm and yet inside has been planned to perfection. I could live there permanently. Jennifer and Peter were wonderful hosts. Jennifer was waiting for us on arrival to show us around. A generous breakfast basket was waiting for us in the kitchen as well as a lovely bottle of wine. Little Hartley is away from the hustle and bustle but conveniently close to everything. We ventured out every day to do all the treks and sight seeing, but honestly couldn’t wait to return to Hartvale Cottage. The local residents (kangaroos, ducks and birds) entertained us every day. Jennifer has a wonderful garden and art studio which she happily showed us. We look forward to returning to Hartvale Cottage to experience it in a different season. Thank you for having us.

I already had high expectations coming onto this property, but they were exceeded! We were very kindly greeted by the host, who had stocked the house with some delicious breakfast and food items (a very generous and personable touch). The house was very clean and spacious, plus minimalistic and beautifully decorated. The view was absolutely gorgeous, with the mountains, meadows, and autumnal trees. We felt so lucky to wake to that view everyday. The host was just a text away, offering us electric blankets and anything we needed. The house itself was very close to all the major sights, so was convenient. Highly recommend: it was the most perfect peaceful home!
