About this property
Gairdner Cottage - something a bit different!
- Something a Little Different
Gairdner Cottage is a private, self-contained and modest retreat close to Albany's CBD and medical precinct. Comfortable, practical and private, it offers a relaxed base and everything needed for couples and solo travellers visiting Albany.
Compact but thoughtfully equipped, the cottage features a fully equipped kitchen, EV charger, enclosed rear yard and wonderfully comfortable queen bed, along with parking for two vehicles, air-conditioning, laundry facilities and free WiFi.
The open-plan living area opens onto a sunny north-facing deck with cottage garden and hillside views — a peaceful base from which to attend to business or explore Albany and the Great Southern.
Original artworks, indoor plants and personal touches add warmth and character, while the enclosed yard means your dog can stay too.
Please note - agreement to our Pet Policy prior to arrival and payment of a Pet Fee applies to guests with pets.
