Wonderful property in perfect location We had a brilliant week at Star Cottage and loved being so close to the city while in a quiet area. It was wonderful to be in walking distance of the city, Cascade Brewery, Battery Point and the Derwent River, as well as having a supermarket and eateries so close. The cottage was snug and had both modern features as well as old world charm. Thank you Antonia and Robin!
