The place is beautifully appointed and clean as a whistle. The location was a stones throw from the Towonga-Mt Beauty trail making a quick ride into Mt Beauty easy. The property is so quiet and peaceful and wonderful to enjoy from the pristine jacuzzi. Beds very comfortable, shower lovely, couch cosy. Thanks for a great weekend. ##### Shelly H.

We had enjoyed our 2 nights stay, had an excellent night’s sleeps in super comfy bed. The standard of everything is excellent providing a peaceful, tranquil place surrounded with natural beauty with a highlight of watching a variety of species such as the Bowerbirds. We enjoyed watching their unique courtship behaviour where the male built and decorated a nest with sticks and with blue objects to attract female. The garden was immaculately manicured to perfection. We would highly recommend staying at Lothlorien, beautiful cottage with a lovely touched, extremely friendly hosts Tim and Marsie, we will most definitely come back.
