Cottage vacation rentals in Wollongong

We loved this beach holiday, so much so that our dog refused to get in the car to come home! It was exactly what we needed. A very quiet town, right on the water. We would love to go back and hope to do so. Such a gem of a location, this should be a “Rare Find” AirBnB, it truly was magical.

The cottage is lovely facing a paddock of horses and cows. We loved being so close to nature. The interior was warm and full of character. We loved loved our stay. We came for winery tours and wine tastings famous in the local area. And in the evening enjoyed warming up in the outdoor jacuzzi that Sam kindly made up for us with a fire. Highly recommend this experience.

Our only negative about our stay is that we didn't choose to stay longer. Banksia Park cottages in Kangaoo Valley are located in a truly magical place. Beautifully scenic and serene and totally surrounded by nature. We sparked up the fire pit as soon as we got there and had it going until we went to sleep. Everything was great

We had an absolutely perfect stay! The house is even better than it looks in the pictures—spacious, beautifully set up, and incredibly comfortable. Although the weather wasn’t great for most of our visit, we barely noticed—we were too busy enjoying the cosy fireplace, relaxing bath, well-equipped kitchen, entertainment options, and board games. The place was stocked not just with the essentials but with thoughtful extras—we didn’t want for a thing. We were lucky to get a break in the weather and explore Currarong Beach, which was beautiful. We had the entire beach to ourselves—it truly felt like a VIP escape! It was the perfect spot to celebrate a milestone birthday. Our two dogs had a wonderful time as well, and the secure back garden was a huge bonus. We’d 100% recommend this place and hope to return in the future!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at The Byres, such a peaceful rural location, rolling green hills the sound of the cows and yet only 9 mins to Berry and 7 mins to Shoalhaven. The house was well equipped, we made great use of the outdoor spa and the coffee machine, glad that the rooms had fans and the master had aircon, comfy beds. Loved it all! Would definitely recommend this property and we hope to book again in the future.

Absolutely beautiful cottage set amongst some of the most beautiful gardens and trees, amazing spa hotub and the cosiest fireplace on cool nights. Highly recommend.

We throughly enjoyed our stay here! It was the perfect quiet romantic weekend getaway for my husband and I. We saw kangaroos in our backyard everyday and saw some beautiful birds as well. The cottage was adorable and extremely cozy! We would absolutely stay here again and can’t wait to come back.

The staff is so kind and always responsive. My family and I had a really good time there. They also give some tips about where to go. Strong recommendation

Had a lovely stay at the cottage - was cosy, warm fireplaces, great location (quiet but convenient), and beautiful autumn leaves in the garden.

We had a great weekend at Luke’s house, it was a great location with a short easy walk to a beautiful beach. The house had all we could ask for BBQ, fire pit, outdoor eating area and great views. Beds were comfortable with plenty of sleeping options and all the appliances imaginable. Luke was quick with his communication and gave us a very generous late check out . Highly recommended.

Charming little cottage set only 5 minutes from beach side town of Huskisson. Loved the farm-feel to the home - lots of green space for our pup to run around in and for us to explore. Hosts keep a tidy and functional space that we would absolutely recommend

We stayed at Cottage for a couple of nights and the place was absolutely treat! Beautiful house with all the details that they put into each space was amazing. The location was spot on and we walked to the town for breakfast, lunch and shopping for less than 5mins. Also there are a couple of nice walk trails around the house. Lastly, I slept well on their amazing comfy bed during my stay! Thank you for lovely hospitality Jo and Greg. We will definitely visit this lovely place again.

We had a lovely stay at Knoxberry Farm with our 4 yo. Location is excellent, lovely outlook from the large windows and deck to trees and field beyond and just a few minutes drive in to town. We went for scenic runs along the quiet road. The cottage is compact, we loved the big beds and hotel bedding, very comfortable. We did all our cooking on the bbq on the covered deck in sunshine or torrential rain, great setup with a fire pit in the garden as well.

What a wonderful place! Wheelchair accessible, very quiet, rural vista and within easy reach of towns and activities. Our last stay at Mungo Lodge in February was just as good. Looking forward to our next booking.

We loved our 3 night stay. Beautiful and comfortable, it had everything we needed. Our cavoodle loved rxploring the grounds and felt right at home. The welcoming bottle of wine & coffee pods for the coffee machine were a nice touch. We'd love to come back and stay again sometime.

Chris was a great host and the place lived up to expectations in a wonderful way. It was such a cosy place on a cool late autumn weekend, and so wonderful to be able to watch out on the horses and kangaroos on the other side of the fenced in garden (so your 4 legged friends can also watch from a safe distance!). All in all a fabulous place and we will definitely love to return soon.

We absolutely loved our stay for a girls weekend away. The house is gorgeous and really well styled. Lovely extra touches such as a basket of toiletries which was quite needed when I forgot my toothbrush! Jodie also left a lovely basket of goodies for us including carrots to feed the donkeys.

We had a fantastic stay at Rhonda’s apartment. The location was perfect—ideal for anyone looking for a relaxing escape. The peaceful atmosphere made it easy to unwind, and the apartment had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We love spending time outdoors, so this area was perfect for us. There’s plenty to do, from the scenic Kiama Coastal Walk to exploring Berry. Definitely a 5-star experience! We’ll be recommending it to our friends and hope to return soon.

The place has a lovely outlook across to the mountains. It was very wet when we stayed unfortunately, so couldn't get out to walk around much, but the fireplace and heating kept us warm. Thanks for a lovely stay. Would definitely come back.

Noelaine and Allan were great! I couldn’t have asked for better hosts. They were so welcoming and showed amazing hospitality. I would definitely book here again

Magic setting, super comfortable and cosy. Gerald is always available and proactive with tips, we had a relaxing time with a well equipped kitchen, and super clean comfort. We’ll be back. Thanks Gerald.

Great place. Will certainly book again!

This is a beautiful little cottage, and particularly enjoyable during the day as it gets lovely natural light. The little touches like fresh bread and eggs made our stay extra comfortable!

We had a great time in this cottage. It is Ideally located near the centre of Wollongong.
