Thanks Joanna for all your effort to create a beautiful, luxurious and period interior with a stunning garden to match!! We loved all the attention to detail, a garage for our classic car and the brilliant location - walking distance to everything, especially the scrumptious Babil restaurant! We'll be back!!

We had a brilliant week at Jacaranda Cottage preparing for a family wedding nearby. From the fantastic assistance from Jo, for whom nothing was too much trouble, through to having everything we could possibly need at our fingertips. It was a cold week in June and the cottage was beautifully warm and cosy - electric blankets were a welcome addition. The location is great…walking distance to shops, supermarkets and the Botanic Gardens. Would definitely recommend.

Jacaranda Cottage
Stunning cottage with all the conveniences of home and a garden that is simply amazing. The garden is a great place for drinks, a BBQ, and for afternoon tea. A home away from home. Quiet area, close to shops, Lake Colac, and the Botanical Gardens. Day tripping to local towns and the surrounding areas is made easy due to the location of the cottage. We plan to visit again. Thankyou Jo for your hospitality and looking after us during our stay.

Wonderful spacious and centrally located property
We had a relaxing stay at Jo’s property. The property is much larger than it appears in the photos! It’s tidy, clean, and has all the amenities you’d need including a great garden out the back to relax in. The beds are comfy with electric blankets.
Everything was close by and within walking distance - the lake, gardens, and shops.
Jo was a terrific host, very friendly and was great at communicating all the details.
