A charming cottage! The host had lots of little welcoming items, such as beverages and treats and thoughtful touches around the cabin. It was a lovely stopover - clearly much thought went into the details.
Excellent location. Absolutely adorable cottage, it was the cutest, most unique place I've stayed. We loved it. The host came and said a hello when we arrived and was lovely.
What a lovely little cottage. All the well thought out extras such as dog and people treats and fresh coffee were a hit. We would definitely stay again.
Very accommodating host, good communication, friendly and knowledgably about area. Amazing historical building. A stay of the different type. Loved it in Childers. Thank you, we will be back!Sandra and Dean

A unique Cottage .. Hosts very friendly and made us so welcome..
Would definitely recommend.. short walk into the quaint town of Childers
Fantastic hosts, really helpful, went out of their way to make sure we had a great stay. Beautiful little cottage in the heart of Childers, would definitely recommend and would love to stay there again.
Thank you so much for having us at your lovely Little Fig Tree Cottage. It was warm, cozy, and incredibly welcoming — the perfect home away from home. The location was ideal, close to everything we needed. We had such a wonderful experience and will definitely be back for another visit!
The property is unique and located in an excellent spot. It has a wonderful feel. I was able to take my dog inside and he was welcome. It's a classic place that is memorable to stay, and the check-in was easy, and there were little things like some milk and teas etc to make settling in easy
We enjoyed our stay here. The cottage was comfortable and contained everything (& more) that we needed for our time there. It's location allows for an easy walk to town. The cottage is extremely clean and has lots of lovely little extras to discover.
