Nearly!
Overall I would say the property could be excellent. There were guests with dogs in the cottage next door - so close virtually attached - there are no fences and their dobermann would enjoy her No2 in the morning on the lawn just in front of where we were sitting, and the jack russell would take every opportunity do a No1 on our deck chairs. The kitchen is compact and unfortunately poorly set up with storage/crockery up and down steps though could be improved with extra shelving and a little thought. And the BBQ had just enough gas for the time we spent cleaning it - then was run out with no sign of back up.

Family function in Burra
This is a beautifully cute cottage with some beverages supplied on arrival, milk and coffee/tea. Our Property Manager/host was in contact over the weekend and it was a beautiful rural location. Peppertree cottage was easy to find and the local stone was evident throughout the cottage. This is a multi level cottage and there is steps to the bathroom and dining area. The outside deck was lovely and a favourite spot for us all to have the provided continental breakfast (juice, cereal, bread and milk). Everyone was very happy with the comfortable beds and mum (80yrs) especially happy with the quality of her linen. My mother is from Minatro so it was nice to go back there. She found the steps quite difficult and that was a minor issue for her, but she was still happy with the accomodation otherwise. Baby is just taking first steps and climbing the stairs kept us busy watching him. I had a great time there and will think of when I can go back.

Lovely little cottage in a beautiful part of the valley. Guests are best advised to bring breakfast supplies, as there is only a limited range on offer, but the cottage itself is gorgeous and very comfortable.

Peppertree was perfect accommodation for our groom & groomsmen and having both Peppertree & Tickle in such close proximity worked extremely well for our needs. Would highly recommend for a getaway with friends and family.

Nice cottage, but NOT private
This accommodation has an adjacent cottage right next to it with zero fencing in between. The back doors are less than 3 metres away from each other. Do not book this if you are looking for a private getaway. We had noisy 'neighbours' with dogs coming over into our part of the property and someone walking right into our lounge looking for the shared laundry facilities. This should be fully disclosed in the listing.

Gorgeous 1850's cottage in rural setting
Wonderful atmosphere, comfy beds, great hot water supply for rural accomodation, and so close to all the attractions. Mintaro is a delightful village with very special attractions of maze and Martindale Hall. The wood fire was a treat and kept the cottage cosy throughout. Great stay with our family and dog

A lovely birthday treat
Such a charming place. I can not think of a better place to spend my birthday. A lovely bottle of wine and some crunchy bread was there to greet us. The lovely warm fire, unbelievably comfortable beds and such a warm, inviting place to spend some time to wind down and take some time out. Plenty of places to go for a walk just outside of this delightful cottage. Our dog Milly was in heaven. We ran out of wood and within an hour the wood box was replenished. Can’t wait for another visit. Thank you to our hosts

Front and internal doors jamming ,difficult to open .. dangerous steps down to living area ,arriving in unlit room .bathroom heater not working ,shower floor cracked ,insufficient tea making facilities (no tea bags) only one bedroom had heating .tv remote does not work . This property need quite a lot of TLC and updating . The saving grace of this let is the beds and bedding which were excellent Would not recommend this stay to any one until vast improvements are made

We found the property charming and quirky. The bedrooms were clean and lovely. The lounge had not been cleaned very well if at all, dirty floor. The kitchen is tiny but was fine for us, especially having the spacious dining room. The bathroom was fine and the shower great. We enjoyed our stay there, perhaps a bigger second couch would be even better. Thankyou to the owners and hosts. We had a great time.

The location was great and the bread, orange juice and flowers were a nice touch thank you.
Unfortunately we experienced millipedes everywhere, in the beds, lounge, walls not sure where they were coming from but this made our stay very uncomfortable. The placed needed a good clean and we were washing cutlery and saucepans and cleaning down kitchen surfaces before we could cook our meal. The toaster needs replacing.

Country comfort
Great cottage in rural setting. Bread, wine, OJ & milk on arrival which was a lovely welcome. Loved that we could take our dog. The family in house next door also had a (larger) dog so thankfully the backyards are fenced off. Also loved the fireplace; we had cool nights despite the sunny days. We ate out or had cheese n meze platter for dinners so didn’t use the oven/stove. Unfortunately quite a few flies, millipedes and other bugs in the house so we shoved an old towel from our car inside the door which slowed them down. As a country gal, it didn’t bother me. Would stay again!
