Coco's Cottage

Coco's Cottage is a self-contained, pet-friendly cottage on Goonoo Goonoo Road at Hillvue, in Tamworth's south, listed on Airbnb and Booking.com. It suits travellers who want a whole cottage with a yard for the dog rather than a motel room by the highway, with the country music city's venues a short drive away.

Dogs at Coco's Cottage

Dogs are welcome at the property, and guests travelling with pets report the hosts are accommodating. The yard is fenced, so your dog has somewhere to stretch and do its business without a lead on. Expect the usual conditions: well-behaved, house-trained dogs, and possibly a small surcharge or cleaning fee depending on how you book. Size limits and the number of pets are not published, so message the host before booking to confirm your dog is approved, whether there is a fee, and which parts of the cottage your dog can use.

Max: A fenced yard at a cottage beats a motel lawn every time, but still ask the host what the fence is like before you count on it.

Worth knowing

The cottage gets consistently strong marks for cleanliness from guests. Hillvue is the southern side of Tamworth, so you are close to the long Goonoo Goonoo Road corridor of shops and takeaways, and the Equine Centre and regional showground are nearby without being in the middle of the festival traffic.

Close by with the dogs

For a proper off-lead run, George Street Dog Park is the dedicated fenced dog park on this side of town, and Gipps Street Sports Field works for an on-lead walk. If the cottage is booked out, Almond Inn Motel and Roydons Motor Inn take pets too. More options are on the NSW stays page and the West Tamworth guide.

Message the host before booking to confirm pet approval, any fee, and current house rules for your dog.
