Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Australasia

The house and surrounding property was better than we imagined. It was one of the most beautiful houses we have stayed in, and the view from the living area was breathtaking. We didn’t go anywhere all weekend because the house was so relaxing and comfortable and all we wanted to do was look out the windows at the ocean. Thank you Richard for letting us enjoy your property.

we had a lovely weekend at SaltHouse. our little pooch enjoyed the fully enclosed yard, and the gas fire place worked a treat on the cold nights.

This is the second time I have stayed at David’s beautiful home. Can’t thank him enough he is very responsive and clear with instructions to get inside. Once you are inside it’s absolutely magical. Views are incredible and the house is just so perfect. Can not recommend this place enough and I can’t wait to go back again one day. 5 stars

If I go missing, check here first. The winged house is ridiculously good. Right on the water, stocked like a gourmet bunker, and so full of home grown produce in the garden I briefly considered starting a farmers market! The amenities? Let’s just say if you forgot to pack something, this place probably already has three of it! Quentin was also a very responsive host, with easy and clear instructions. Highly recommend, unless you’re trying to book the same weekend as me—then no, it’s terrible, avoid.

Great location, easy access to public transport and amenities. Beautifully decorated, a lovely space to escape to.

This little peace of heaven was perfect for our family to celebrate my 40th birthday. From the moment we walked in the front gate to see the house amongst the gum trees and then the waterfall from the bedroom. We felt like we stepped into an old fairytale world with our own treehouse. Everywhere we walked felt like little fairy’s were waiting to greet us. The ferns throughout and stepping stones between each area made for the best adventures. The kids loved watching the frogs and tadpoles in the back pool. The natural pool was incredible and soul nourishing. Our first experience with a natural pool and it was breathtaking, especially being able to swim under the waterfalls. Thank you so much Sarah, we hope to return sometime Soon.

This was the first time we went to a Winter Holiday with the family. Elbert was ABSOLUTELY stunning from inside out. Kate has really hit the nail on the head with everything, from cleanliness, to design, to the homely feeling, all the way down to surprising us with little gifts, and snacks. I honestly don't think I will enjoy a Winter getaway without staying at Elbert, it really made our experience even more enjoyable. Will definately be back. Thank you so much Kate & Jeremy.

Lovely getaway! We really enjoyed our relaxing mid week stay - lots of walking, sitting by the fire, and the home was comfy and spotless. Definitely would agree that you should pack your cheese platters and most meals for ease. Would love to come back again soon!

This was our second stay with Melinda and as with the first time we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The space and property are beautiful and Melinda is a friendly helpful host. I can’t imagine staying anywhere else the next time I come to the area.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lakefront@Tyrolean. The apartment was spacious, spotless, and thoughtfully furnished with all the modern amenities for a comfortable and relaxing break. Its location was perfect—just a short walk to the lake and an excellent base for scenic drives to Thredbo, Perisher, and Charlotte Pass.

Maria's Little Gem is just that, a little gem. Everything you could want for a quiet overnight or a long stay. It's a short distance from Bowral CBD which is nice to have the quiet :)

We had a wonderful stay, Made was beyond helpful and responsive. He is a wonderful host, he was responsive helped with all our questions and gave us rides everywhere we needed. He was very patient with us too because we didn’t know what we wanted to do. the villa is very private and clean. They gave us all the amenities we needed. The only thing is that there wasn’t many restaurants around and it’s not too close to the main town. It’s a 15 minute drive but besides that I highly recommend staying here. Made is a wonderful person and he made our stay special.

Medlow Bath is a fantastic, peaceful location near to Leura, Katoomba and Blackheath. Denise was a wonderful host and provided us with many recommendations for the area. The space was quiet and comfortable. Would definitely recommend!

Great place Loved the site, nice clean house. Just tucked away in peaceful place. Plenty of sleeping option. Lisa was great to deal with. No doubt will visit again.

Julie's place is a fantastic place to stay in Hobart. It was super convenient, cozy and peaceful, and we felt right at home. There was even a lovely little box of treats on the dining table waiting for us when we arrived! Would highly recommend this place.

Catherine was very helpful and easy to communicate with throughout the booking, check in and check out process. The place was amazing and in such a great location in St Kilda. The added touch of putting the fire on for us on arrival, on a cold evening, was very thoughtful. We had a great time in St Kilda and Melbourne, using Catherine's place as a hub made it all the more special. I cannot forget to mention the great recommendations for cafes, bars and restaurants locally that are now on our 'must go back to' list.

an amazing place, very well furnished. A perfect holiday place, ideal for a big group. kids will love the place too. has a clean pool n a play area. Enough of indoor games n books :-) for a peaceful read, sitting with birds in the balcony overlooking the town, the cloud clad hills. would love to visit in spring /summer again. thank you, Phil.

This place is beautiful. Furnished with pieces from all over the world, plenty of greenery inside and out. Veronika is very pleasant and helpful. A great little getaway inside Victoria

We had a great stay at George's place. Great view of the breaking waves from the deck, a warm house, comfy bed, well-equipped and stocked kitchen. Communication was easy. All as good as could be!

Absolutely amazing, was only 5 minutes from Apollo Bay, and a tonne of great restaurants, the accommodation was very clean, very secluded, there was a bottle of champage and chocolates upon arrival. The spa with the view absolutely incredible! Everything was thought of. Comfortable bed and loved the gas fireplace so didn't have to cart wood in! I would absolutely recommend this experience and we will be back. Thank you for an amazing stay :)

Superb and attentive hosts. Organised everything for us from arrival at the airport to departure. Villa was beautiful and kept clean. Really enjoyable stay. Will be back again.

Absolutely loved our spa weekend stay, so many thoughtful touches, from the quality bed linen and towels, gorgeous toiletries, great record collection, book of well thought out information about the area, places to eat, visit etc. there was even bird food for the native birds which you could hear and see from the well set up outdoor area. It truly felt like you were at home, they really have thought of everything to help their guests enjoy their stay, we will definitely return 😊 too many personal touches to mention but we fully recommend this lovely home.

It was such an incredible trip! Isla was very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. The place itself is amazing—clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. Highly recommended!

Genuinely wonderful! Go beachfront if you can - it is worth it. Views incredible, villa is perfect, location is out of this world. Will definitely be back.
