About this property

Berta's Cottage at Berry

Located on a quiet country lane 4 minutes from the quaint township of Berry and the iconic Seven Mile Beach, this well-appointed, comfortable 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom cottage overlooks a dairy farm with rolling green pastures and distant hills.

Berta's cottage sleeps up to 6 people. Linen and towels are included, and many extra touches to make your stay comfortable and relaxing. The cottage is on 3/4 acre of garden with a covered gazebo with wood burning BBQ, a games room, herb garden, fruit trees and fragrant flowers, and is surrounded on 3 sides by farmland.

Berry is a vibrant village with a diverse range of cafes & boutiques. The cottage is close to many activities including walks, swimming and surfing, fishing, canoeing, golf, wine tasting, markets, great restaurants and stunning rural scenery.

The two double bedrooms open on to the north-facing verandah at the front of the house with outdoor furniture - the perfect spot to enjoy the peace and quiet and spectacular rural views while enjoying a freshly brewed coffee or glass of wine. The third bedroom with 2 single beds overlooks the farm next door.

The well equipped kitchen boasts a country pantry equipped with a coffee machine and pantry essentials including oil, specialty tea and coffee.

The lounge room offers comfortable lounges, recycled and eclectic furniture with a cozy wood combustion fire perfect for cool Winter evenings, and air conditioning for the warmer months.

Two bathrooms are offered with toiletries, one with a walk in shower, the other you may enjoy a leisurely bath looking out the large picture window.

Beautiful cottage
The cottage is set in beautiful grounds and very comfortable. The kitchen, especially, was very well stocked. It is also nicely located, very close to Berry but also on the road to Gerringong which we loved too. Thanks for the dining recommendations - we used them for both lunch and dinner! Thanks for such a lovely stay.

A great little cottage to relax and unwind in. We particularly loved the front verandah with its wonderful view, and the close proximity to Berry was very handy.

Absolutely loved it!
We go away quite frequently. This was by far our most enjoyable trip to date.. Gorgeous cottage in a stunning setting. So peaceful and quiet. The cottage was equipped with everything we could ask for. We had 2 friends drop in and spent 2 days with us. Comfy beds, free wifi, Netflix and Prime available. Berry was a 5 min drive and we shopped till we dropped and stuffed ourselves with Devonshire teas. Our dog thoroughly enjoyed herself in the safe fenced off yard - she had a great time exploring. The pre-booking process was seamless and our host Rosemary was so kind and friendly. We will definitely be returning to this wonderful property 🙌 Thank you Rosemary 🙏
