ABOUT ALDGATE CREEK COTTAGE

- A Charming Escape Amongst The Trees -

Guest Entrance Convenient and Private

The Cottage gardens are for your enjoyment. You can enjoy your own private guest entrance at 10 Strathalbyn Road, directly opposite the Aldgate Pump Hotel.

This entrance is in the picket fence – right next to the antiques shop called ‘Callum’s Collectibles’. Notice that it is behind a metal railing in the public pavement. The gate has wisteria overhead and agapanthus, camellias and roses by your feet. Enter the gate and walk along the tree-shaded path, over the little wooden bridge to the cottage. This is the best access to the Aldgate Pump Hotel, cafes and boutique shops of Aldgate Village.
Parking & Check-In Additional Parking Available

The Cottage is situated in a picturesque garden with majestic trees, soft tree ferns and flowering plants.

The main entrance is at 3 Rugby Road where you have your own private undercover parking. The parking bay is close to the main house, and it is a short stroll through the garden to the Cottage. Please come to the front door (under the veranda) and ring the bell for check-in.

The Cottage has a private garden entrance at 10 Strathalbyn Road which is located directly opposite the Aldgate Pump Hotel. There is a short-term public parking bay outside this entrance for your added convenience.

There is a second private garden entrance that leads to the local supermarket and shops of Aldgate. Here there is also a car park that has no time limit and offers free parking, where you are also welcome to park.
Outdoor BBQ Cook Your Own Steaks

The Cottage is equipped with a gas barbecue for two – perfect for when you want that barbecue flavour at mealtimes. The barbecue is situated on the far side of the decking area, and here you will also find table and seats for your enjoyment. The deck looks out over Aldgate creek that flows for most of the year, and is surrounded by trees, bushes, and ferns, with roses planted around the edges. The visiting ducks, birds and butterflies create a peaceful and happy natural setting for your open-air mealtimes.
The Second Storey Balcony Serene Views Over The Garden

The Cottage offers a pretty balcony on the second storey with table and chairs for you to make the most of the pretty view out over the Aldgate Creek that flows for most of the year, and the pretty garden with wildlife from birds to ducks – and the occasional koala! The balcony is the perfect spot to relax – whether it’s with an evening glass of wine, or gradually waking up with a steaming mug of coffee or tea in the morning.

Extra Features of the Accommodation

The Cottage is nearby a place called Stangate House, which you won’t want to miss visiting. This is a beautiful place that has a huge garden filled with camellias. Stangate House is open to the public at various times throughout the year, and the Camellia Society hold open days when the camellias are flowering at their best. Stangate House is a perfect place to hold a wedding, and it is within easy walking distance from the Cottage. For more details about Stangate House please visit their website at http://www.stangatehouse.org.au/

The Aldgate Pump Hotel opposite the Cottage offers an excellent seasonal menu. The pub has a large, shady beer garden that is great for warm summer evenings, and indoors there is a wonderful log fire for keeping warm in winter. They also have private function rooms available for hire. You can contact the Hotel by visiting their website at http://www.aldgatepumphotel.com.au/

The Aldgate Cafe next door is happy to deliver meals if you are not keen to prepare your own.

The Santos Tour Down Under WorldTour is an annual international cycling race – and the Cottage is perfect for viewing the race. Often the race route passes directly in front of the Cottage’s front gate on Strathalbyn Road – and at other times it’s a short drive to see the pelleton as it passes through local hills villages such as Stirling and Mylor – that are only a few minutes’ drive away.

If a third guest is included in your plans, we can accommodate if required – at $50 extra per night.

Discover your very own wishing well filled with flowers, paths that meander around the cottage and over Aldgate Creek, and unusual garden features tucked away among the bushes and ferns.

By the house the paths are made of brick, and as you enter the garden they change to fine wood-chip that provides a firm yet springy surface – like a natural forest floor.
