2 Bedroom House in Maldon

A beautiful little house that was once a fruit shop, in a delightful goldfields town. From 1877 to 2019, Shopkeeper's is now another world, a beautiful place of the handmade, the local character, and lots of preloved bits and pieces. It's a place to love, a place to write, a creative and reflective space, tucked away here in Maldon.
The Shopkeeper's House has been carefully rebuilt and decorated to share. There are special textiles - handmade and antique, a quality sound system (with a turntable + vinyl!), focussing on the locally-made and hand-made. All sorts of interesting books and mags, eclectic music, and lots of games. Oh, and lush beds.
Most things have had a previous life, because they have the most character - just like Shopkeeper's. We prefer reusing and recycling, and anyway, pre-loved is just better.
Super-cosy in winter with both wood-fired and gas heating and the split-system keeps things cool in summer. Shopkeeper's is the perfect space for 2 people and lovely for 4. Lots of games, a large garden that's always changing, and walking and cycling trails just around the corner. This is the place to come to balance out your busy life; to be in the country; where time slows just enough to really get away.

Summary: The property is very quaint with so much care given to the decor. The bed comfortable and beautifully made with linen sheeting. The host very thoughtful and helpful.The star rating is given due to the position of the cottage. It is right on the loose stone footpath and road with quite loud traffic noise. Other than that it is a perfect getaway.

Summary: We booked this property for a weekend visit to Maldon to surprise my Dad, whose grandparents lived in the town, for his 70th birthday. The property was fantastic - like stepping back in time. The beds were extremely comfortable and we loved the little touches put in place by the owners like local produce and notes of what to do in/around town. The owners also went the extra mile organising champagne from Avoca and an amazing cake from the local bakery to be placed in the fridge upon arrival - and being dog friendly we were able to ensure our 4 year old golden retriever Charlie (very much part of the family) was able to come with us! I couldn't recommend the property highly enough - and Jamie and Kate make checking in and communicating in the lead up to and throughout the stay a breeze. A gem of a property run by really charming, friendly people!

Summary: This is the most gorgeous quaint cottage with a lovely garden on the side, perfect for us and our dogs! We loved the little extra touches like quality local cheese, olives, and sparkling rose, and being able to go down the nostalgia road with the record player! The beds were comfortable with linen and blankets. I did get a shock when I found out there was no wifi as I needed to download a document, but managed to do that on my phone. It would have been nice to use it to get Netflix when the TV was full of Carols and replays. Another little issue was that the dining table was extremely wobbly, so much so we could not eat on it, so pretty as it is, it either needs replacing or fixing. No biggie though! We really loved the cottage and would heartily recommend it to anyone needing a romantic break in the countryside!

Summary: We had a lovely time at the Shopkeeper's Quarters. The house is charming, cosy and filled with interesting antiques and trinkets. We had everything we needed - plenty of firewood, towels, luxurious bathroom products, a great selection of tea and a wonderfully generous welcome hamper. The beds were very comfortable with beautiful linen sheets in fact all the soft furnishings made the house feel welcoming and cosy. It's clear that a lot of thought and care has gone into decorating and outfitting the house to make it a very pleasant and comfortable stay. The yard is spacious and attractive too, especially on a sunny afternoon. We were able to bring our cat Roy with us, and he quickly settled into life at the Shopkeeper's Quarters, and we found it a very pet-friendly place to stay. The cottage is also only a short walk from Maldon's main street. Overall, we would thoroughly recommend the Quarters to anyone looking to stay in Maldon.

Summary: We spent nearly a week at the Shopkeepers and we could not have imagined a more wonderful place to spend our Christmas holiday. The shade of the big beautiful Elm Tree in the garden was just magically, offering such cool shade even on those 30'C+ days when you'd usually hide inside. If felt incredible to be able to spend time just reading on a blanket and enjoy the summer without fear of overheating or burning. The house itself was equally as wonderful, we loved preparing meals in the airy and bright kitchen, and spent our evenings relaxing by listening to records and feasting on the visual delights the interior offered. We would recommend this little lovely little oasis to anyone, and we will most definitely be back! Thank you!

Summary: This property is amazingly well crafted. The attention to detail for each room impeccable. A modern clean bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, the lounge focused around the log fire and comfortable bedrooms. The house is full of curiosities and wonderfully restored furniture as well as all mod cons (discreetly placed so they don't ruin the feel). The back yard is picture postcard beautiful and with the steam train rail line just over the back fence (don't worry, only goes during the day and is very quiet), it has something for everyone. We WILL BE BACK!

Summary: Shopkeepers Cottage was a lovely little oasis close to town. Welcome pack was fab. Great few days away after several failed attempts due to COVID lockdowns. Very clean and tidy and our pupper loved roaming around the lovely garden.
