Sandy's pottery cottage with lush green gardens

Since the studio days when it was all a big open space, Sandy and Pat have renovated this property to be fully accommodating so we can share the beautiful cottage and gardens with family, friends and guests for a tranquil and relaxing vacation away.

This gorgeous Pottery cottage retreat is where Sandy spent over 20 years hand crafting her finest Australian pottery collection, together Mum and I (sandy), have filled the home with many special pieces of Sandys work to give you a true feel for the beauty that was created here, most bowls, plates, cups and vases were all made in this special cottage that Pat built for Sandy. Out the back you can still see the original shed where the firing kiln still remains, still filled with the last collect ever fired.

You can have access to the entire cottage and verandah. At the back of the cottage is a garden that you are welcome to enjoy. Parking is available on the turning circle only.

Please note check in time is anytime after 3pm, and check out time is anytime before 11am.

3 night stay

We had a 3 night stay at the cottage which was comfortable with adequate facilities. The bedroom was lovely and the bed/ bedding was very comfy. The kitchen had all the basics and the huge table was a great place to eat. We had a little difficulty finding the property up the very steep drive as there was no number 15A displayed . Some reviews have said that it's a 15 minute walk into the town which we would question.The property is at the top of a very steep hill and is quite isolated. You need a car to get to and from anywhere of interest. The rear garden was a little unloved and would have benefitted from a bench or garden seating. We had thought we may get a stunning view with being so high up but the high trees hid the views and made the garden feel claustrophobic. The pottery shed and bird shed at the rear of the house did nothing to improve the area.

Lovely stay

Lovely, clean apartment. Beautiful views and quiet. The walk into town is quite hill-y so you should be prepared for that. We mostly drove everywhere. Bed was comfortable and bathroom was very clean. Would recommend for a small getaway.

Peaceful and spacious

Just had a 3-night stay at this very spacious property. The location was good- nb. very steep drive- lovely outlook, amenities good ( though we didn’t see the hot tub as listed) and was warm and cosy. The only suggestions that I made to the host and to which she responded immediately, was that an information book regarding local restaurants, medical facilities and wifi information etc would be good to add. Communication was answered promptly on each occasion. The bed was comfortable and the bathroom fit for purpose. Loved our king parrot and kookaburra visitors!

Couple Get Away

Just perfect for what we wanted, a quiet base to be able to explore the surrounding area. Good facilities if we wanted to stay home to eat, but close to good eateries. Plenty of space to chill out.

Quiet cottage

It’s a lovely cottage in a quiet area not too far from the main road. You can walk to all the shops and restaurants in about 15 minutes. The place was clean and tidy. We felt relaxed and enjoyed our stay very much.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

The property was fantastic. So well layed out and plenty of useable space. It was perfectly clean and to be honest, the photos don't actually do the property justice. Everything was clean, well designed and easy to use. I'd happily stay again with my partner and our baby and would happily recommend to family and friends. The owner was lovely and very prompt on communication. Could want for nothing more.
