    This cottage is gorgeous! Well situated within the town, easily walkable from the ferry. Charming decor and comfortable seating. The property views are delightful with a wide variety of fruit trees and visiting birds. Kitchen is well equipped, and everything worked as described. Road seemed to be a bit of a thoroughfare, so not silent, but not annoying either. Would definitely stay here again!

    Really cute yet spacious house right in centre of Russell within 3 minute walk of the seafront. We loved being able to visit the museums and restaurants, wharf and supermarket on foot. We also enjoyed the 20 minute walk to Long Beach and the walking tracks to Flagstaff Hill.The cottage was very homely and comfortable and the kitchen exceptionally well stocked.The huge deck and garden were wonderful added bonuses.Thank you to Carrie for being so accommodating, helpful and communicative both before and during our stay!

    What a delightful cottage! Clean and comfortable, with charming, slightly quirky décor that is quite enchanting. The kitchen is modern, spacious, and well stocked with saucepans etc if you wish to cook, but it is an easy walk to Russell restaurant, shops, and waterfront. The bathroom is small but efficient and has been nicely updated. I hope we have another opportunity to stay!

    We have been holidaying in Russell for several years and were not disappointed with this character property, which has been thoughtfully renovated. It is an easy 2-minute walk to the waterfront and high street. Carrie was great to deal with, and we would definitely stay there again.
