Thank you Robyn for making our stay enjoyable. We were up helping farmers with tools after the fires and Robyn put us up at a great price. They weren’t directly effected by the fires so get up there and have a great holiday guys. All systems go at Upper Murray Cottages 😀

What a great place to stay. Robyn and Brian couldn’t have been more helpful. We have stayed twice and the first time was in a cottage with the most spectacular view. Our cabin was beautifully decorated and very clean It was winter and we were supplied with plenty of firewood which made it a very comfortable stay. The second time we had a family gathering and it was the most wonderful experience. Would recommend if you want a refreshing break away this is the ideal spot.

If you love the sounds and views of mother nature. If you love Cottage styling and that farm/bush setting. This is a MUST. The valley views from our cottage were 5 star. The cottages are of retreat feeling to let you feel that country feel, not a dazzling city big paradise hotel. Back to the days when I was a child. Cottage was clean and comfortable. Pools were fantastic. Heaps of native animals to see and hear. And the sunrises are a once in a life time to see. Cottages are well spaced out for that secluded private stay. I myself can not holiday with crowded places. This was apparently fully booked out when I asked during our stay and it felt empty most of the time. We will be returning again 100%

Concept of this place is great. I stayed here a few years ago but sadly in need of an update and maintenance. Stayed two nights cottage 11. Floorboards didn’t just creek totally groaned, wake everyone if getting up in middle of night. Tracks to cottages really require a 4wd. Cleaning left a bit to be desired...empty stubbies in “garden” below, saucepan full of eggshells and you need to be reed thin to get into shower can’t have room door and shower door open at same time. Swimming pool had broken tiles, a broken underwater light cable floating around and broken banana lounge ...little things but for $250 per night these count. On the plus side the views are amazing and if you like golf a gorgeous course just across the road. The Jingellic Pub is also just the other side of The Murray.

We had a lovely time - despite the rain. We had cottage 6 and the view was beautiful. Comfortable cabin which was all we needed. Enjoyed exploring the property we easily did a 5k walk and probably could have walked more its huge. Free golf course across the road you just drop in a donation and the hotel can supply golf clubs. Murray River was fantastic for a dip

Had a beautiful and relaxing stay at the cottages with incredible views. We sat by the wood-fire that Brian started for us on arrival and admired the scenery with a glass of wine. A lovely walk to visit all the farm animals and get some fresh air was just what we needed for a relaxing weekend away.

Fabulous five days at Upper Murray Cottages. The accommodation is comfortable and clean with everything you need. Beautiful views and fabulous wildlife from Kangaroos to tiny birds that entertained us every morning. Brilliant swimming pools that the kids enjoyed and a good DVD library that made up for the poor TV reception. Excellent 4G in the area kept everyone entertained at night! Fabulous dog friendly locations can be hard to Find but this is a real gem.

Two couples stayed in a 3 bedroom cottage with a fantastic view. The cabin had everything you needed, including a great wood fire for the cold nights. Brian delivered a delicious homecooked meal by Robyn right on time in the evening. The slow cooked lamb shanks were incredible. The views from our verandah were breathtaking and it was lovely to see the countryside bouncing back from the bushfires. Already booked again for the Corryong festival in April. Do yourselves a favour and head to the Upper Murray for break.

What an amazing place, so peaceful. Check in was quick and efficient. Great spot for relaxing and enjoying time with nature. Plenty of local attractions to see and do. The cabins are completely fitted out with everything you need. The wood fire was awesome and kept us warm. Our visit was in winter and I would love to come back in summer and enjoy the stunning pool that overlooks all the amazing open spaces.

We had a wonderful week staying in cottage 7, just the tonic we needed. Views overlooking the valley to the main range are incredible and were treated to a spectacular lightning display on one of the nights. Cottage was comfortable and in line with the bush retreat setting (ie. nothing flashy but contained all that we needed). Well spaced out with the only noise being the abundance of native birdlife. Ideal as a base for touring the Upper Murray region. Thanks Robyn and Brian for such an enjoyable time.
