Koala Cottage TripAdvisor Reviews

“Our motto at Koala is that nothing is ever too much trouble. We’re concentrating on perfecting our first class experience and have our guests leave feeling like they’ve had a unique and pampered experience.”

Described as a “unique boutique retreat”, Koala Cottage is aimed at visitors wishing to celebrate a special occasion in style. There are three suites to choose from, all of which are fitted out with king-size beds, satellite TV, DVD/CD player, private dining facilities and opulent bathrooms. A jacuzzi and sauna is available at no extra charge as well as a gourmet ‘country breakfast’ served in the conservatory.

Owner Dee Templeton and her daughter Lynne took over the project from previous owners Ric and Maggie Hilton. “Ric and Maggie worked very hard building Koala Cottage and making it a special place to stay,” said Dee. “We want to build on the excellent reputation they created and keep our guests wanting to come back for more. We’re very excited.”

Koala Cottage has been named as overall Runner-Up in the Bed and Breakfast (B&B) of the Year category in the prestigious Tourism ExSEllence Awards 2006 for the South East. It was recognised in the awards, run by Tourism South East, as an exceptional quality B&B offering excellent added value services to its UK and international customers.

Particularly targeting couples who are looking to celebrate, and to stay in somewhere and genuinely unique, Koala Cottage received the accolade as one of the region’s very best at a glittering awards ceremony on Thursday 5 October.

Opened in March 2006, Koala Cottage offers innovative extras like health and beauty treatments in its sauna/spa villa, special intimate honeymoon and wedding packages, gourmet picnic hampers and even al fresco barbeque breakfasts!
