10 / 10Outstanding·Oct 2025
Our family of eight people experienced an enjoyable stay in a very well equipped and comfortable accommodation. Nestled in the hills surrounding Tumut and adjacent to the river, the location was perfect. We did however become a little disoriented returning to the accommodation in the dark and after enjoying a delightful meal at The Star hotel. Some solar lighting on the direction signs along the road once you leave Little River road would assist guests. Overall, a delightful stay and would certainly recommend Yellowbox guest house to others visiting the Tumut region.

We had a fantastic stay at Elm Cottage celebrating Dads 80th birthday. The setting location is amazing - river, the hills, the well kept and artistic surrounds. The house was ideal for a large group like ours and plenty of space to relax. Super amenities in the house. We had a fantastic stay.

This is a great property in a fantastic location. It is a good space for a large group and the deck offers a great view of the river. Plenty of cutlery and glasses and an excellent BBQ. Directions to the property were clear. Excellent communication with the host as well.
