Cottage holiday rentals in Lake Macquarie City Council

I would highly recommend Karen’s place . It was one of the cleanest and well appointed houses I have stayed in . Lovely bedding , bathrooms immaculate and the spa worked without a glitch ! Not one negative thing to say . Thank you Karen for everything .

We stayed at the Love St Cottage for a family wedding at Peterson House and couldn’t have been happier with our choice. The home was exactly as pictured—spotlessly clean, beautifully presented, and incredibly comfortable. It had everything we needed for a relaxed and enjoyable stay. The location was super central, making it easy to get around, and the host was friendly and very responsive. Highly recommend!

A great location to relax before and after a wedding in the Hunter.

Wonderful place to stay for a relaxing time. Close enough to everything yet far enough away to be peaceful and secluded. The house was comfortable and kitchen was well kitted out.

This is a really lovely cottage in Stockton, clean, well-equipped and finished to a high standard. Handy for all the shops and for exploring the neighbouring areas. It was a perfect place for me to stay during a recent relocation to the area. I’m staying again next week and I’m really looking forward to coming back, it felt like home.

Lovely mid-week stay. Check in super easy, place had everything we needed. Large well fenced yard to keep our dogs secured. 10/10 - would stay again.

We stayed for two nights. The place is surrounded by nature and farms—you could hear cows and birds, which was really peaceful. The house was excellent and clean, and Jemma was a responsive host. Our phones didn’t have reception, so we were completely disconnected during our stay, which helped us truly relax and clear our minds.

What an amazing experience we had with our little ones, from waking up to feeding the horses, playing on the swing set to walking around the property. Eloise was so helpful and communicated all information that we needed. Its a perfect secluded home for getting away with the family.

We would like to thank Jimmy for our beautiful stay. We booked last minute and were very surprised at the value for money. Such a beautiful well kept little place. Thoughtfully decorated, even down to the small details such as bed linen and towels. Would definitely re book :)

Our stay with Sally and Romo was absolutely magical! Their cottage is impeccable - exactly as pictured, cozy and welcoming. Walking in to find freshly baked bread, homemade cookies and cakes was just the beginning. What makes this place extraordinary are Sally and Romo themselves. Their genuine warmth, joy and desire to connect made us feel like longtime friends rather than guests. Romo's personal tour of nearby towns and pubs was a highlight, as was the enchanting riverfront on their property. Our dogs had the time of their lives exploring the fields and meeting farm animals. The entire experience was filled with thoughtful touches and genuine hospitality. Our only regret? Not staying longer! We left with treats, memories, and new friends. Without doubt, this was our best Airbnb experience ever - we're already planning our return! Sally and Romo aren't just hosts, they're the epitome of hospitality and human connection.

Myself, husband and our dog Lenni had a wonderful stay at Glenn’s property. The property itself is absolutely amazing, stunning gardens and feel a million miles away even though you’re only a short drive to Morpeth which offers so much including cafes, boutique stores, and restaurant options, or alternatively the cottage has a fully equipped kitchen for cooking. Lenni had great fun with Glenn’s dogs and running free around the property. The pool and sauna were a great addition and we especially loved having a fire watching the sunset. 10/10 can’t recommend this place enough for a lovely relaxing getaway.

We had the best stay at Tanya’s place. Walking distance and short drive to many vineyards and restaurants. Perfect cosy cottage, even when the weather is rainy. The huge spa bath and rain shower head is a big plus as well!! Our golden retriever Moose had an absolute blast and we will be back!

We had a wonderful time at Somersby cottage. It’s so beautiful and peaceful. Our dog loved sitting on the deck and taking in the view and sniffing around the big, enclosed garden. Sally and Simon are perfect hosts. It was super easy to get to the beautiful beach and town of Umina and there are plenty of other things to do in close proximity. Thanks for an excellent getaway!

Beautiful and quiet country retreat, just as described. Firewood provided 🥰 nice and roomy with serene surrounds. Had a great little getaway here

The accommodation was very comfortable and very well set up. The bed was comfortable and the shower was good. The location was quiet and peaceful yet not too far from the M1 which made it a perfect place to break my journey north. I could see that it would also be an excellent spot for a longer holiday since it is so well equipped and well located. Margeurite and her husband were lovely hosts yet respected my privacy. They were also kind enough to allow me to have my cavoodle inside. I would definitely stay again.

Great place, perfect for celebrating my dads bday in the Hunter. Close to vineyards and the bbq was great.

If you’re looking for a great location for a peaceful, relaxing stay and a great host to look after you, this is it. Nothing more to add really lol. Wished we had more time with the horses and explore the farm!

The cottage is beautifully decorated, wonderfully comfortable and the location can’t be beat. I didn’t want to leave! Rebecca was a fantastic host, friendly and responsive and made me feel right at home. My stay was exactly what I hoped it would be and I can’t wait to visit again.

Was a lovely stay and Sarah was an excellent host. Coming back very quickly on any questions I had. The place was very clean and close to shops and the beaches not too far away. Would recommend a stay!

This place truly deserves 5 stars. Such a beautiful place and so well maintained. Feels just like home. Kim was very helpful and really appreciate the welcome cookies and Easter chocolates. It was a hit with the kids. The host was very proactive and available for anything we need. I would happily recommend this place to anyone.

Perfect spot for exploring this part of Australia. Particularly loved the sunset views from decking. Would definately stay again.

What a gem! Our stay at this stunning cottage was faultless. Elizabeth was a fantastic host, great communication, very accommodating, and gave us excellent local tips (Toronto Hotel for dinner and Mizumi for takeaway were both great). We were spoilt with a welcome gift of wine and chocolate Easter bunnies and eggs, such a lovely touch. The cottage was spotless, beds were super comfy with beautiful linen, and the big fluffy towels, bathroom amenities made it feel like a luxury hotel. All the extras were thought of, oils and seasonings for cooking, even washing capsules and stain remover, a lifesaver when traveling with kids! We fished off the jetty daily (caught a Bream, Flathead, Octopus, Crab, Whiting), used the kayaks, and relaxed in the cosy TV room. We enjoyed the fire pit one night too, with wood provided. The cottage is even better than the photos. 100% recommend and hope to return soon!

Julia’s place is well thought out and comfortable. Everything you require is provided. Location is great and close to the lake and short drive or walk to shop’s etc. The place was neat and clean. Thanks for a great stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The place perfect for our weekend away it was clean, very user friendly and has everything you could need plus more! The outdoor space was wonderful to sit in the afternoon and enjoy the weather. The whole experience was a breeze, Bec has thought of everything you may need and definitely went above and beyond. She was a fantastic host, very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. We highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a great place to stay!
