Great weekend getaway
Had a really enjoyable weekend on my second stay at Elsie’s Cottage. The property is comfortable, neat and tidy, in a quiet street conveniently located about a 10 minute walk into town. Check-in was easy and all essentials are provided. Wine and chocolate was much appreciated. A great place for a relaxing weekend.

Very Clean, great communication and comfortable stay.
We stayed for a few days and were very comfortable during our stay. Our dog enjoyed lazing around in the back garden and provided us many walks in the area. Although the property is in town, it’s still a good 20 minute walk to town however easy to find. Overall a pleasant stay and exactly what we needed. thank you.

Short break from busy Melbourne life
The property was super clean, the bed very comfortable (and I am picky) and with the colder weather the open fire was fantastic. Great for the dog with a good secured yard. Walking into town is good, around 10-15 mins and we enjoyed talking to the locals at the pub and and the bakery. The positive reviews stack up.

Beautiful dreamlike getaway.
We are heartbroken that we did not sign the guestbook. We had so many compliments. The cleanliness was superb, the attention to detail and the overall look- just divine. A highlight was discovering children toys, this was a godsend for our bub. She had a wonderful time! Beds were comfortable, kitchen was lovely.. all of it- gorgeous! Thank you once again!

Our hosts communicated really well from the start. We were all super impressed with the cottage in how it looks and how it had all you need for a comfortable weekend away. We have 2 teenage lads who loved the fire pit and big back yard to play in. Some really cute touches made it a memorable weekend away. Highly recommended for a family getaway!

Cosy and classy with charm and character. Little beauty.
Property was excellent in all areas that mattered to us as seniors. Clean comfort facilities and appliances accessible and access to management when necessary. The township and people were lovely, freely sharing information and knowledge. Weather on this occasion was perfect. Our only criticism is really one for council and authorities to improve. We found general road signage to be less than satisfactory when trying to follow maps and attractions brochures. Attractions need a lot more follow up signs from initial start points. Many street names are missing. In our opinion for Maldon to become a traveler preferred destination maps and signs require significant work. As we do not feel we are stupid, we must attribute difficulty with navigation in and around Maldon an important issue to be addressed. Overall our experience was positive but it could have been better. Laurie
