25.01.2022 The Best in Rockhampton! We are pretty excited to tell you that Cottages on The Range, in September, 2018, became the highest rated accommodation in Rockhampton, according to Booking.com. Accommodation booking companies survey guests after their stay. Cottages on The Range guests have obviously been very happy with their stay in the Cottages and with their Rockhampton experience. Guests are asked to rate their accommodation experience in 6 categories - staff, facilities, cleanliness, comfort, location and value for money. Our guests have consistently rated us 10/10 in all categories. Is it OK to feel really proud that our little business, less than a year old, has done so well? I hope so, because being proud is making us smile very broadly.

18.01.2022 Late last year I shared with you the excitement of the purchase of another Cottage on The Range, Rockhampton. Renovations began in February, 2020, and all was going well for a few weeks. Along came Covid-19 to add a little challenge to everything. Absolutely everything! The simple trips, such as a reno-required Bunnings run to a coffee at smoko, became major expeditions into the wilderness. Bookings disappeared overnight and many sad guests rang to cancel their accommodatio...n for holidays, weddings and special events. Life changed almost overnight for all of us. The Kellow Cottage renovations continued albeit with social distancing and staggered visits from tradies. Dust masks were in short supply. Now, rolling towards the end of May, I'm pleased to say I can see the light at the end of the renovation tunnel. It's looking bright and I am excited to declare the Kellow Cottage will be open for business by the 1st July, 2020. Without giving too much away, here is a sneak peek at the Kellow Cottage bathroom and kitchen. See more

16.01.2022 Easter has come and gone along with that Bunny. It has me fascinated how it manages to stay so slim. Thank goodness for grandchildren. They provide an excellent excuse to over indulge in chocolate at least once a year. In just a few weeks we have Beef Week in Rockhampton. The Cottages on The Range are extra busy. The Beef Week Program is out and bookings for events have taken off. There is competition for which event will have the most international visitors - the Commonwe...alth Games at the Gold Coast or Beef Week in Rockhampton. No... seriously... Beef Week is attracting beef producers and related industry representatives from many countries and we are delighted some are staying with us. Beef Week is a big industry and a rather exciting event hosted in Rockhampton. If you are attending or just curious here is the link to the Program: http://beefaustralia.com.au/plan/program/. Hope to see at an event. Safe travels. See more

10.01.2022 You can't miss a wonderful experience at the Gardens Tearooms, Zoo and Botanic Gardens when on holidays in this fantastic region .

09.01.2022 Today Cottages on the Range opened for business the latest Cottage in Kellow Street (between the Base Hospital and the Rockhampton Grammar School). The Kellow Street Cottage is the third elegant Cottage we have on offer for self-contained, short term and holiday accommodation. Our other Cottages are located in Archer Street and Bishop Street, inThe Range, Rockhampton. We are excited to be expanding, even in these tough times, and we are hoping for local community support in our venture. Direct bookings are most welcome as well as bookings through Stayz/Home Away. Maybe we will celebrate tonight after months or renovations and lots of hard work. Cheers!

08.01.2022 The Botanic Gardens are often very favourably commented on by our guests. The Gardens are walking distance, or a short drive, from any of the Cottages. A daily visit for a leisurely walk, excellent food and coffee at the Gardens Tea Rooms and the sheer enjoyment of being amongst the magnificent Gardens, is highly recommended. These upgrades to the walking tracks are excellent news.

07.01.2022 When you stay at one of the Cottages on The Range do find time to explore the region and don't miss a trip to Mt Archer. It really is an amazing view and a photographic delight. Great for bushwalking and great for the kids.

07.01.2022 When you stay at one of our Cottages and you are planning to spoil yourself with something a little special, then please consider a Grazing Box from the Gardens Tearooms. It will match perfectly with a well chosen bottle of wine as you watch the birds and the sunset over the wetlands of the Yeppen Lagoon.

06.01.2022 There are so many great things to do in and around Rockhampton. When you stay with Cottages on The Range we will leave you information in your Cottage to showcase the region. You will want to stay longer than a few days. The fun and great experiences are here to be enjoyed .

05.01.2022 Happy New Year to all our guests and friends. Your support and patronage during 2019 was hugely appreciated. If we may, we would like to ask for your assistance. We purchased our third Cottage on The Range in December, 2019. Like the Archer Street Cottage and the Bishop Street Cottage, the Kellow Street Cottage requires renovating before we will make it available as holiday and short to medium term accommodation. What we would appreciate hearing from you is an indication of ...the facilities and set-up you have most appreciated when you have stayed at either Archer or Bishop Street Cottages. What must we ensure we 'get right' and include in the new Cottage on The Range? Your feedback will be hugely appreciated. And... for your interest, the new Cottage in Kellow Street is located between the back of the Rockhampton Base Hospital and the back of The Rockhampton Grammar School. Here is a photo of the Kellow Street Cottage, as it stands now. Well, if the truth be told, it is quite a bit more the worse for wear than the photo shows. However, it has great potential and character and we will enjoy making it available for your 'home away from home' in lat February/early March. We'll post some progress photos of the transformation of the Cottage over the next 6 to 8 weeks, hopefully including your recommendations for the renovations. See more
