A group of 3 couples, we found Credo 3 very relaxing and pleasant for a night away from it all. The house isn't easy to find in Olinda where there are no street lamps at night, and google maps seemed to place it on the wrong side of the road, but Jonathan was able to point us in the right... More

Poor signage, although the Credo restaurant was easily visible, the accommodation was not. Parking not available on site, or at least we were not told of any. Had to park across the road. As soon as we entered the cottage, an unpleasant odour was obvious. I liken it to the smell of closed up house where there has been a... More

Had to call caretaker/owner upon arrival as the king size room was locked off. The booking said king size. He arrived soon after to unlock and I also advised the pool was full of bugs and leaves. I assumed it would be cleaned after each guest. He did clean it however seemed very put out like we'd disturbed him. He... More

I can you that the Spa tub and filters get... More

My partner and I stayed here as a gift from the CEO of her company,so considering we weren't paying for it, it was really very lovely. The cottage on a whole was very welcoming, it was warm, cosy, and everything you could expect from a cottage in the mountains. The only thing I have to complain about is that if... More

Overall we enjoyed our experience and stayed here a few years ago. Accommodation can't be faulted, either can location bar the road noise which isn't an issue for us. Our problem stems from the central heating which appears to be on a timer. Doesn't make sense to have the outdoor spa on all the time but not allow the same... More

Previously stayed at the sister accommodation i believe called Lochiel and thought we would try the other accommodation as we had a slightly reduced budget this time. The features seem very similar to Treetops and the contemporary style and design is great and a compliment to the area, it works well! We loved the cottages and the extras inlcuded were... More

Travelled as a couple early July 2010. Booked through their website (Credo Cottages). The cottage that I had originally chosen was not available so the owner reverted promptly to suggest Credo 4. It was not in the website then because it was very new & he sent me pictures & replied to all my questions. LAYOUT : Credo 4 Cottage... More

Some family stayed here for our wedding. It was clean and modern and well designed with good heating. Not much of a view and borders onto normal residential property however you are metres from the main st of Olinda so you wont need to sit around looking out the windows anyway. Great place to get ready for a wedding. Had... More

We recently spent 2 nights in Credo Cottage #2 (my sense is that there is some variation between cottages). We arrived while the Credo Restaurant was open, so the restaurant manager was quick to bring us up to the cottage and show us around. Cottage #2 was set back from the road, admittedly without a view, but with enough foliage... More
