20a Happy Go Lucky Road, Walhalla, 3825 Walhalla, Australia –

Lovely quaint cottage in a little piece of history. Entry details given by instructions well before the visit. Turning up in daylight would be advisable, if not make sure you have a good torch.

Bed was a dream. Cottage was cute as!! Rustic style and the board games and books were fantastic.

Amber, Australia

This is a truly idylic cottage, spotlessly clean and very well equipped even down to firelighters! Cannot praise it enough and Walhalla is a great quaint historic town.

Walhalla is a brilliant historic gold town where we could walk everywhere and watch the tourist train’s daily routine below our cottage.

Stewart, Australia

It was a lot like Glamping but in a tiny cottage. Lovely and cosy and nice to get away from phones, tv etc., Lots to do in Walhalla and we thoroughly enjoyed it.

Anna

Stringer’s Cottage is named after Edward “Ned” Stringer. He was one of a group of prospectors who had been exploring in creeks flowing into the Thomson River valley and found gold sometime during late December 1862 or early January 1863.

I grew up in Gippsland and visited Walhalla as a child when it was an uninhabited ghost town full of derelict properties. I returned as an adult with my own children to find a town revitalised and a steam train my kids and I fell in love with.

In 1863 a claim was pegged out & former convict Edward Randel, registered it at the outpost town of Bald Hills under his assumed name, Edward “Ned” Stringer. Walhalla became one of the world’s richest gold mines with over 13 tonnes of gold produced

The instructions about getting access need updating, We initally could not get the key, so as per the instructions went to the newsagent. They told us they had not had a spare key for the cottage for a long time. They also told us the contact number for the cleaner was no longer correct. They did help us get the key at he property so it worked out.

Inside the cabin the steps were not suitable for us to use eg. To big a drop from room to room, front door step to low, step around toilet, dangerous

The bed was very saggy. You slept in a parabola position which made pillows high and even more uncomfortable. Oven needs good clean , smells a bit. Needs good dust under bed and lost socks removed.
