Excellent Experience
This was our fourth stay at Hillcrest Cottage. An excellent position close to Berry and Nowra. Jannette is an excellent host; always makes you feel welcome including your pets. My only concern about this recommendation is that it may become too popular.

A lovely stay
We loved our stay at the cottage. It's set just out of Berry, so everything is close by, but it still feels like a country retreat. Would definitely recommend.

Such a lovely short getaway
My husband, young son, dog and I had such a lovely stay at Janette's cottage. A beautiful location, comfortable and clean accommodation and Janette was very welcoming. We had a great time on the tennis court, meeting the goats, walking the neighbourhood and just relaxing on the property.

Janette is the perfect host and we adored our stay at Hillcrest Cottage. The peace and quiet, fresh air, and easy distance to Berry can’t be faulted. Will stay again in a heartbeat.
