Pet-Friendly Features That Make Travelling Easy

Tucked away in the outskirts of Cooroy in Noosa Country Hinterland, Magnolia Cottage is one of two Noosa Country Cottages properties. The cottage takes its name from the beautiful pink magnolia tree that was flowering in the garden during our stay. I loved watching the pale pink petals drift slowly down towards the ground.

The garden also creates a country Noosa pet friendly accommodation that’s hard to beat. The yard is fully fenced and there are lots of interesting nooks and crannies for your canines to explore. It was cat friendly too for our indoor cat. There’s no need to open the ground floor windows in winter so the cat was safely locked inside.

How Far Is Magnolia Cottage from Noosa?

Magnolia Cottage is located in Cooroy in the Noosa Hinterland, around 20–25 minutes’ drive from Noosa Heads and its famous beaches. This makes it easy to enjoy the best of both worlds, peaceful country surroundings with quick access to Noosa’s restaurants, shopping, river activities and coastal walks.

You can spend the morning at the beach or exploring Hastings Street, then retreat to the cooler hinterland in the afternoon for a quiet evening on the verandah. It’s an ideal base for travellers who want easy access to Noosa without staying in the busy centre.

What It’s Like to Stay at Magnolia Cottage

The two-storey house is cute and country in décor with cosy styling. You could spend quite a while just admiring all the carefully positioned collectables scattered around the rooms. There are books everywhere too, so there’s always something to browse. Although it’s called a cottage, don’t arrive expecting something small. This is a large dwelling with four big bedrooms, two spacious living areas and dining on the long verandah.

Since there were just two of us and two fur kids, we only occupied the spacious ground floor. This includes the open plan kitchen, dining area and spacious lounge. The main bedroom has a queen size bed and plenty of storage space.  A bathroom next door feels like an ensuite.

Plenty of room to relax at this country Noosa pet friendly accommodation.

Spacious living areas

There’s everything you could possibly need in the way of pantry staples in the kitchen. From tomato sauce to bin liners, it’s all available making it easy to self-cater. My favourite spot was sitting on the deck with a cup of tea, looking over the tropical garden and enjoying all the Noosa Country Hinterland vibes.

I could really see this place working for generational holidays too.  With three large bedrooms, a bathroom and a separate lounge area on the top floor it is almost like a second house.  Put your teenagers up there or your children and their small children all in together.  So much space to enjoy.

Booking Tips for This Pet-Friendly Noosa Country Escape

The garden is a real highlight.  It’s fully fenced so you can let your pupper roam in controlled areas, but around the dam, they need to be on a lead.  Full of hidden corners and unexpected delights this is a garden to explore.  Walk across the swinging bridge, sit on the end of the jetty and listen to the whip birds calling.  There’s a firepit for nighttime campfires and s’mores.

I always travel with a dog bed and bowl so my dog immediately feels at home in a new place. Add some dog food and a few waste bags for garden clean-ups, and you’re all set. Everything else you and your pet need is supplied at Magnolia Cottage, making it easy to settle in and enjoy a relaxed holiday together.
