Tania & Elvis G., Williamstown – July 2007 (came back again in September 2007)
As I wrote when I stayed in December 2006 – this establishment is simply beautiful. It is 1st class accommodation that has everything. Tyntynder is simply the best.

Glenda F., Airport West – April, 2007
It’s clean & tidy with lots of space for us to enjoy our holiday break together. The best recharge we have had for a long time and lots of fun memories to take back to Melbourne. Thanks so much.
Pauline & Andrew H., Sandringham – April 2007
Thank you for a great Easter break in beautiful spot. We all loved the Rail Trail, BMX park, river, bakery, market, etc. The weather was unbelievable. Dogs were in 7th heaven and had a run with me into town for breakfast each morning. Happy to provide a testimonial anytime – my father in law (an 82 year old cyclist) has already booked with you.
Stacey I., Port Melbourne – April, 2007
We want to thank you for a most relaxing & enjoyable time. The accommodation at Tyntynder was 1st class – all the essentials provided plus a lovely large back garden. We will most certainly be recommending this place to our friends.
Daniel & Tareanna D., Wantirna – April, 2007
Perfectly positioned along a river with so many trails to explore. We all loved it totally and are going home exhausted but happy.
Jennifer E., Garfield – April, 2007
Tyntynder provided a lovely secure garden area and the apartment was really clean and comfortable. A really great holiday facility.
Carol & Lyle D., Ringwood – April, 2007
It’s all that it advertises to be. It’s extremely clean and well maintained. Very private & peaceful. Thank you.
Ruth R. & Annette D., McCrae – April, 2007
Heaven! River swimming, safe garden and glorious off lead walks into town through the bush trails. Friendly staff too.
Patrick I, Port Melbourne – April, 2007
The cottage was beautifully presented and exceptionally clean – everything provided for. The position is fantastic and we look forward to returning.
Ashley & Karen B., Surrey Hills – March, 2007
We just want to let you know how much we enjoyed our stay at Tyntynder. It was just perfect. Everything we needed was supplied and everything was beautifully clean. We loved the big garden and we all loved sitting on the deck of an evening – or anytime for that matter. We all thought the location and setting was gorgeous.
I think we sampled just about everything Bright had to offer – we loved the Brewery with its local-produce tasting platters, we were regulars at many wineries – Brown Bros, John Gehrig, Boyntons & Michelinis too. Beechworth was interesting to see, particularly the hour or so we spent in the court house; the drive to Mt Hotham was awesome and then across to Dinner Plain and back through Falls Creek was a world away from Melbourne.
Back to work tomorrow but I am sure we shall return. We’ve already started spreading the word about your lovely property.
Elsa P., Kew – March, 2007
Close enough to town and in a nice quiet location. First rate facilities and spotlessly clean. Plenty of information and brochures together with pleasant and very helpful staff.
Russ & Phyllis G., South Blackburn – March, 2007
All mod conveniences. Excellent accommodation, spotlessly clean. Set in peaceful surroundings – the bird life was an extra bonus.
Joy & Jenny G., Glen Waverley – March, 2007
All the creature comforts including magpies to enjoy. Most relaxing and lots of good walks nearby
Allan w., Mansfield – March 2007
Because of its first class appointments for a comfortable & relaxing holiday we’ll be recommending Tyntynder Lodge as an ideal place to stay.
Tony & Louise B., Tenterfield – March 2007
We found the accommodation very clean on arrival. Facilities have been updated and are very comfortable. The Lodge is easy to maintain giving us more time to enjoy our stay. The area outside is safe and secure. Jasper certainly settled in which is fantastic considering it is his first holiday away from home. The river is nice and close to cool off.
Alistair & Gaye P., Humevale – January 2007
The cottage accommodation is excellent as are the private garden, views from the verandah and walks along the river nearby.
Dianne H., East Brunswick – January, 2007
A lot of care has gone into this Lodge

Tyntynder Lodge was just like home – very cosy and everything was here. Very, very lovely place to stay. Very clean and easy to manage. Lovely cleaner and owners.
Hayley C., Castlemaine – November, 2006
Excellent 2 bedroom spacious units with wonderful fully fenced garden. Enjoyed the back verandah for relaxing on after enjoyable bush walks and paddling in the nearby river. Tyntynder is very friendly and kept spotlessly clean. A credit to the owners and the cleaners. I will be back again.

My husband, self and occasionally family have stayed in many dog friendly places. Most of them have been excellent but Tyntynder Cottages are “Simply the Best”. They are clean, comfortable, beautifully appointed with all conveniences and within close proximity to shopping and all attractions. These cottages are a perfect paradise.
