Great little out of town stay.

Cottage was clean and tidy with everything you would need. Fresh eggs supplied by the resident chooks was a lovely touch.Great relaxing quiet setting close enough to the main city of Bendigo. Just a shame we had to leave early.

We really enjoyed our stay at Huntly Country Cottage. It was very comfortable and the hosts, Meagan and Mitch, added some lovely touches. Oats and cornflakes, an assortment of condiments, Helgas bread, and some nice touches in the bathroom. Being on a semi-rural property was something different, and having chooks and a few rabbits outside the property was lovely. It was great having a secure area to leave our small dog when we went out for dinner. Bendigo hasn't had any decent rain for months, so the area around the property is very dry and bare, but we certainly enjoyed our stay at Huntly Country Cottage and will stay there again.

What a fantastic place for an overnight stopover

After travelling for many hours including delays with car issues we arrived quite late and were greeted warmly by Megan. The cottage was beautifully furnished with a lovely outdoor area that was completely enclosed - perfect for our little dog. The inclusion of breakfast provisions was a nice touch. Will definitely be back next year.

Great stay

We stayed for 5 days. It is a small place but with great function and really lovely outdoor areas. The hosts are lovely and everything was really clean. I didn’t feel I had to clean anything before We used it. It’s wonderfully dog proof which is good cause the chickens are free range a lot of the time. Which were wonderful. By
