Loved this beautiful cosy dog friendly cottage and all the extra thoughtful gestures the owners had for us when we arrived. Great enclosed yard for our dog and thoughtful dog supplies there for us to use. Very considerate hosts who thought of everything. Would highly recommend. Close to town but far enough away for the quiet and serenity!

This property was lovely , just the cleanliness of the place lets it down . We stay for 5 nights and it is very dog friendly. Unfortunately the cabin was far from clean , and I’m not a neat freak.

An ideal BnB for family & pets. Heaps of food provided, to help when you arrive & following days. For a winter stay there is a wood heater, making it nice & cosy. Anyone would love staying there with their pet.

This was the ideal property for us to base ourselves on, plenty of secure grounds for our border collie to explore. The cottage was well equipped, cosy warm fireplace and comfortable beds. Lovely touches including continental breakfast staples, chocolates, wine and doggie treats were a nice addition. Enjoyed our stay.

Disappointed

To be honest we were disappointed with the property. It was not very clean, between the seats on the couch was like a sand pit, the shower had quite a bit of mould and soap scum. The beds were very poorly made with fitted sheets not even pulled on properly, however they were comfortable. The towels were very thin and old. We loved the fire and that kept us nice and warm. Overall the accommodation was ok for what we needed but is a bit tired and could be presented a lot nicer. We would not choose to stay again.

Wonderful stay for pet owners visiting Mt.Gambier

Property is well located in a calm private place near Mt.Gambier. Plenty of space around the house to walk the pets or play with kids. Pet owners would love a stay here with plenty of space with fence.

Beautiful Quiet Location

Lovely, quiet place just outside Mount Gambier. Nice big secure yard for the 2 dogs. Comfortable beds, nice kitchen, lounge room and shower. Nice gesture of breakfast goodies, chocolates and wine on arrival. Pauline greeted us at the gate and was a good communicator from start to finish. We enjoyed our stay and are considering coming back. Highly recommend Kelpie Cottage for a pleasant and relaxing stay. Thanks Pauline and Russ for geing great hosts. Thanks

Thoughtful touches

Thanks Russ & Pauline. The little extras, communication and thoughtful touches were greatly appreciated. The property and walks were enjoyed by myself and our fur baby whilst the boys were off mountain biking. The location is serene but only a short drive to the action in town. Everything was comfortable and accommodating. We’ll be back next October long weekend. Thanks again for having us :))

Lovely stay, very homely

Friendly host whom we were fortunate to meet on arrival. Such a warm & welcoming stay for our family of 4 & 2 pups. Our dogs felt so at home as the amount of care for pets at this property is outstanding. Beds were super comfy & the house was very clean. Our kids loved the area as there is plenty of farm animals around. Thank you so much for our special stay & the extra special touches on arrival. Bread, wine, chocolates, milk & condiments really added to the homely stay…oh & especially the fresh eggs. Thank you!
