    Nothing

    The house was beautiful very clean and comfortable, fireplace amazing. The beds were very comfortable warm and cozy, and all the instructions were easy to follow. The cheese, crackers and breakfast provisions were generous, with a great selection of cereals, a loaf of raisin bread, plenty of milk, juice, coffee, tea, and butter, which was so well received and very appreciated. Location is fantastic - right near town and an easy walk to everything. We would love to stay at Merala Cottage again.

    I loved this property, however the one thing that could have made it even more amazing would have just been to have somewhere to connect my music from my phone to. I personally love to sit with some soft tunes on - we weren’t there for long so this wasn’t an issue at all. If I stayed for longer though, I would have loved to have music to relax with. No marks lost though - I’ll absolutely return in a heartbeat.

    The property was really well kept, and very clean. The beds were super comfortable, and the bedding was great quality which in turn kept us really warm on a cold night. The fireplace was a lovely touch for us, as we sat in the lounge room enjoying each others company in the warmth. The kitchen had all the bits and pieces we needed, and a lovely welcome hamper from the property owners was a great touch for breakfast, milk & snacks to keep everyone’s tummies happy.

    Everything was great. The keys were a little tricky to put back into the box but that's about it.

    The house was beautiful - clean, newly renovated, and very comfortable. The beds were warm and cozy, and all the instructions were easy to follow. There were so many thoughtful details that made us feel right at home. Breakfast provisions were generous, with a great selection of cereals, a loaf of raisin bread, plenty of milk, juice, coffee, tea, and butter, which was so convenient, plus a few treats and cheeses. The location is fantastic - right near town and an easy walk to everything. We’d happily stay here again.

    Lighting was a bit harsh with bright cool white LED’s throughout, would be much nicer if they were switched to warm white for a warmer nicer ambiance. Linen quality was a little tired and we found hairs on the walls and a dirty window frame in the bathroom. Sadly the back garden was a little unkempt. Included breakfast was a little sparse and perhaps a little ungenerous. There was various items of opened packets of foods left from previous guests. The only condiments we could find was a 2/3 empty jar of Vegemite and a 1/4 full jar of jam. On a positive the coffee pod machine was well stocked with plenty of pods and there was a large variety of teas. We just felt at this price point the property should be immaculate.

    Great location. Lovely wood fire with plenty of wood. (it got down to zero during our stay) also great reverse cycle air conditioning as a back up. Well equipped kitchen with every conceivable item you could need. Convenient off street parking. Nice big fully enclosed back yard for our dog to run around in. Would be an ideal sized house for a family to stay.

    Shower could do with a larger exhaust fan and a better shower head. Couldn't fault anything else really !!

    Facilities and provisions at the property on arrival were beyond expectations, nothing was left to chance. Cleanliness was spot on as you'd expect from a residence of it's standing. Proximity to town centre, shopping and restaurants was fabulous.

    Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The accommodation was impeccably clean, with every detail thoughtfully taken care of. It was also well-stocked with everything we could possibly need, from kitchen essentials to extra linens and toiletries. The host was fantastic—communication was seamless, and they were always quick to respond and helpful with any questions. The location was perfect, and the entire experience was comfortable and stress-free. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone!

    Very clean and tidy and also very accommodating with our tight time frame schedule with early book in time to enable us to get ready before a family wedding after travelling close to 4 hours to get there. Would have loved to have been able to stay longer as it is so close to town, cute charming little cottage, definitely recommend the stay.

    Only one toilet, and it is located within the bathroom. Makes it a bit more uncomfortable when travelling with friends. Would be fine if you are a family.

    Very well located. Breakfast & treats left for us were a nice touch. Fire was ready to light on arrival- very good in wintery Mudgee. Large Enclosed yard for our dog.

    We had a wonderful stay in this lovely comfortable cottage. It has a heritage feel (love the high pressed ceilings, timber floors and original fireplace) with modern convenience (GREAT kitchen and dining area). The location is an easy stroll to shops and food options, and it’s central for vineyards in the region. Beryl went out of her way to ensure we felt welcomed and enjoyed a comfortable stay.
