About this property

Milnthorpe Holiday Cottage

This two bedroom holiday cottage is set in a private bush setting and provides a great base to explore Golden Bay. Across the road is the unique Milnthorpe Revegetation Project with its walking tracks and sculpture trail. A couple of minutes stroll takes you to a safe beach for swimming, fishing and boating. The cottage is only a few minutes drive to the world-renowned Mussel Inn or you could take a walk along the beach to Collingwood and visit one of the cafes. Well equipped bookcase, games and jigsaws for those rare wet days or just sit and listen to the birdsong from the tui, bellbirds, fantails etc. The cottage is pet friendly with a dog motel so your canine can have a holiday as well but please let us know if you are bringing your dog(s).

Special conditions:
Tariff is for 2 guests only - additional guests $15 per night. Smoking outside only, pets by arrangement. The cottage is supplied with bath towels only - we ask that you bring your own beach towels.
Pets by arrangement.

A Break Away With our Dogs
We had a lovely relaxed stay at this property. There was plenty of space and we could let the dogs out onto the lawn and know they couldn't get off the property. It is right on the edge of the walking tracks in Millinthorpe bush and a short stroll to the beach. Perfect!

Beautiful environment
We loved our stay- being able to wander across to Milnthorpe Park and with the beach so close-it was such a treat. Really appreciated being able to have our dog-she had a the best holiday too-so many walks! Thank you.

Magnificent Milnthorpe
Great place for us and our friends. Got to visit all their old stomping grounds and the swimming at the beach was wonderful with the gorgeous view of the mountains.
