Beautiful retreat
We stayed for 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed all that the property has to offer. It is a 3 min drive into Berry, yet tucked away on a quiet and peaceful property. The owner is very friendly and the check in process was easy. We especially loved the surrounding trees and greenery. We could open up the house and let the fresh breeze put us to sleep at night. The house had everything we needed for our getaway.

Excellent Experience
This was our fourth stay at Hillcrest Cottage. An excellent position close to Berry and Nowra. Jannette is an excellent host; always makes you feel welcome including your pets. My only concern about this recommendation is that it may become too popular.

Berry Nice Getaway!
Janette the property manager was helpful and friendly. The property was clean and had a small indoor fireplace with plenty of wood available at no cost. We loved picking fruit from the orchard and our little dogs had an absolute ball running around the large property. The driveway was lined with trees in spectacular Autumn colour. Lots of rain for us but with Berry minutes away, we still found plenty to do and see. Thank you and we hope to be back again some day.

Berry with dogs
It was a lovely property and beautiful cottage. A relaxing place to stay. It was only two minutes from Berry but it felt like you were miles out of town. It was also only a 10km trip to Shoalhaven Heads beach via a pretty, quiet country road. The host, Janette, was very welcoming; kind and friendly but not intrusive. I really appreciated that I could have my dogs with me and Janette was very understanding of their curiosity of her property. Will definitely be back again and happy to recommend to others.

Hillcrest Cottage Anniversary stay
The property was very clean and we enjoyed except for the stove. We couldn’t cook on it as the circuit breaker kept tripping (3 times) and electricity would go off on all appliances in the kitchen. It really needs replacing. On both nights we didn’t want to go out and we used the hot plate to finish our cooking. Everything else was perfect just that little annoying thing. I thank the owner very much for making such a beautiful property available. My dog Archie settled in very quickly and was fascinated by Stanley. Thank you

Delightful get-away location in a quiet and peaceful place
You’ll have to make your own wi fi arrangements. Delightful pen for your animal/s, if required. Kitchen was over supplied with stuff in cupboards, leaving not enough room for one’s own supplies, etc. The stove is dated and barely adequate. Aside from this, our stay was comfortable and relaxing in a most beautiful verdant environment.

Hillcrest Cottage
We've stayed in various places around Berry, but Hillcrest Cottage is definitely the best. It's in a scenic area, close to Berry but very quiet. The cottage is clean and comfortable and our stay was very pleasant and relaxing. Janette, the owner, is very friendly and obliging and obviously keen to ensure that guests enjoy their stay. Being dog friendly is a bonus and our dog appreciated being able to explore all the interesting things on the property. Definitely recommended if you're looking for a place to stay in Berry.
