Guest Reviews

• Sarah (10/5): Lovely cozy cottage that is great for families to relax and enjoy time together in front of the fire - The cottage was so cute, cosy and warm with the fireplace and all the other heating devices to keep us warm on a cold evening! It's a great space. The photos didn't do it justice in our opinion - better than expected! The only issue was that there wasn't soap in the dispenser in the shower. An easy oversight - otherwise all was great, nil issues or complaints.
• Aynsley (10/5): -
• Kazue (10/5): -
• Ann (6/5): -
• Daniel (9/5): -
• Mark (10/5): - Stunning old property with excellent features The toilet door didn't lock and we were 3 couples
• Olivia (9/5): wonderful stay very helpful communication, will come again! - atmosphere beds were comfortable clean extra fan
• Devu (10/5): -
• Bronnie (3/5): Disappointing - There was a Christmas tree set up which was lovely. The location is good. The king bed was comfy, although it squealed a bit. It was not clean, there was mould and dirt. It is very hot and the fans are inadequate. The garage is not for guest use which is not listed in the ad
• Christina (9/5): It was a great central place to stay & would be really lovely & cosy in winter - Very central. Very cute. Loved the decor which was in keeping with the age of the cottage. Fenced so safe for children It was very hot in Stanthorpe & there were only 3 fans
• Leanne (10/5): What a wonderful little place to stay in Stanthorpe. I loved this little cottage.🙂 - Dillons Cottage was quaint, quiet, and cosy. Very close to the main street and close to lovely parks for walks. The owner was very accommodating and very easy to correspond with. I would highly recommend this property. It was a really hot, humid day and the cottage didn’t have air conditioning when we first walked in, but once the doors and windows were opened there was a lovely breeze throughout the cottage. It cooled down quickly.
• Bill (8/5): Our stay was comfortable & quaint. May need minor fix ups but history/location beautiful nontheless. - Location was great. History of the place was amazing, beautiful interior and comforting atmosphere. The only thing I would improve is the bathroom door wasn't able to lock or shut quite properly. May need some fixing up but otherwise beautiful.
• Nicki (10/5): Best cottage stay ever. Highly recommend. - Gorgeously furnished and decorated. Super comfortable beds and pillows. The whole cottage has such a good feel to it. Very impressed. Absolutely nothing.
• Tim (8/5): Lovely heritage cottage true to photos. Sitting out on the front verandah was wonderful. - wonderful comfortable bed. Very still in the home . More fans would have been useful.
• Lily (8/5): Cute Cottage - Comfortable beds, well equiped kitchen. Good size rooms, good location.
• Loretta (3/5): Disappointed - The location
• Patricia Mary (7/5): Enjoyable despite the few shortcomings described. - Quaint & in keeping with its era. Nice verandah & rear deck. Good location, near creek & town. Bath towels very thin & need replacing. Tea towels not absorbent which made drying up difficult. (Could be linen or heavier cotton). Back burners on stove didn’t heat. Toilet door came off its hinge in breeze - latch inside would help to ensure privacy. Single bed lumpy & flannelette sheets unsuitable for warmer weather. Brands of toiletry products in shower weren’t identified
• Susan (8/5): - Location & quirkiness
• Terece (10/5): Amazing house and location with full facilities - Amazing old house so full of character. Beautifully restored and furnished. All cooking utensils and tea/coffee etc provided. Everything was perfect.
• Tony (9/5): -
• Brie (9/5): Cosy little cottage, with plenty of facilities to warm up on a winters night. - Such a beautiful little cottage. Nothing
• Kath (10/5): -
• Angela (10/5): -
• Rachel (8/5): -
• Katrina (8/5): -
• Lindy (8/5): Charming Heritage Cottage with Open Fire - It's a lovely heritage cottage with a good open fire and heaters in the kitchen and bedrooms. It feels like a family home. It's within walking distance of Anna's restaurant and the tourist office. It's also very close to Griffith Universities campus. A heater in the bathroom would be good. The single beds were a bit dippy but they were very warm and toasty with the electric blanket.
• Jacinta (9/5): Highly rec - It was a absolutely beautiful in this place it had everything u need and the staging/design was Charming central roomy and warm Minor thing but Water pressure in shower
• Russ (10/5): Exceptional - The Dillions Cottage felt like home! It was cozy and warm and just was so comfortable, super local to town. A huge thank you to Maree for being such a great host.
• Stacey (10/5): Lovely overnight getaway with the kids to a cute little cottage that was very homely. - Good location, nice host, had electric blankets and gas heater to keep us warm Would have been helpful to have instructions on how to use the gas heater. Us “city folk” had to google how to operate it.
• Carlie (9/5): Beautiful quirky cottage with a lovely warm fireplace - Beautiful homely cottage I thought we had booked a three bedroom but it was two as they close the third room. The listing isn’t clear with that
• M (9/5): Superb -
• Mylissa (10/5): Cozy, comfortable stay in a nice quiet location. - Lovely accommodation, very close to town, lots of cafes, shops. Nice quiet location and easy walk for a morning coffee.
• Kim (7/5): we enjoyed our stay overall, but attention to these few minor details would enhance the stay:) - location was excellent. The main bed needs replacing, squeaky bed and not a good mattress. The main TV needs to be larger. NO WIFI- this is a pretty basic expectation today. A lot of Travellers are also in business. It may be an old house (which is nice) but it needs up to date modern facilities.
• Margaret (9/5): A delightful & welcoming cottage! - A very cute, cosy & comfortable cottage. The beds were very comfortable & the kitchen was well equipped, Not being able to use the wood burner on a cold night. A smart TV would have been a bonus. Would have preferred that the extra charge of $50 for use of two bedrooms was incorporated in the initial price quoted for the cottage. Two single travellers are disadvantaged as they pay more than a couple. Have stayed at many similar accommodations nationwide & internationally & have rarely encountered a separate bedroom charge before.
• Katja (10/5): Exceptional -
• Danielle (10/5): Wonderful stay in a beautiful family cottage, reminded us of ‘grandmas home’ - Lovely homely feel that made us feel safe and comfortable. We lovely every corner of the home and all the details. All essential provided and plenty of towels. The bedding was lovely as well as the electric blanket. Beds were a bit soft for all of us, and the king bed had a really loud squeak, comfortable nonetheless.
• Alicia (10/5): Beautifully presented, cosy home - The cottage was beautiful, it was like stepping back in time and brought back memories of staying with my Great-Grandmother (who is no longer with us). The property had everything we needed, electric blanket included, which was fantastic as it was much colder than we expected at night. Bit disappointed we didn't get to meet the friendly spirit mentioned in the guest book by prior guests though...maybe next time! I'm a ridiculously light sleeper so the only thing that didn't work for me was the King size bed, as it was a bit on the creaky side so every time myself or partner rolled over I woke up, but other than that, the bed was so comfortable and warm. And the complimentary bottle of wine was a lovely touch also. Thank you for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home, the pleasure was definitely all ours.

The photos do not do this charming cottage justice, it absolutely exceeded our expectations! We were very impressed with how cozy and homely the cottage felt. The communication with the owner was always prompt and friendly. We were a short 10 minute walk from town and it was a very peaceful location. The beds were comfortable and we had everything we needed available to us, plenty of glasses, towels, etc. There was nothing else we could have needed. The fairy lights at night time on the front veranda and back deck were a lovely touch. Highly recommend Dillons Cottage to anyone travelling to Stanthorpe! Wish we stayed longer!
