Beautiful and lovely place to stay
10 / 10Outstanding·Apr 2026
We had a delightful stay at the Country Cottage in Spotswood over Easter weekend. The cottage was charming and thoughtfully decorated, with lots of little touches that made us feel welcome—like a lovely jar of preserves and fresh fruit and even Easter Eggs waiting for us. The kitchen was well stocked with coffee and tea, and there were plenty of linens and towels.Lesley also went out of her way to make our two greyhounds feel completely at home. She set out a big bucket of water, left a towel for their paws, and even provided tennis balls for them to play with. Those thoughtful gestures really made the stay feel special for all of us.We especially enjoyed sitting on the lanai, looking out at the curious cows next door—such a peaceful, rural setting. There’s a charming boutique right next door, and Lesley was incredibly responsive throughout our stay. Even though the cottage is near a railway line, the occasional train added a bit of character rather than being a disturbance.We highly recommend this spot for a relaxing weekend getaway.

This property is neat, tidy and well presented. Unfortunately it is within 40 metres of the main highway and the trucks kept noisily passing by all night long. Also we paid to have 2 small dogs with us but Leslie the host instructed us to keep these dogs on a leash and 'under control' whenever outside the rented house as her own 3 cats were 'outside cats that don't like dogs' and they liked to roam the property. I had initially asked if she keep her cats on her property. She reiterated that I was to leash the dogs when they were outside. Disappointing.
