COME INSIDE THE HOME:
BNB Made Easy is a professional short-term rental property management company, so rest assured your stay at Dora Cottage will be professionally managed, thoughtfully prepared, and easy to settle into. The cottage pairs an original heritage exterior with a soft, considered interior — sage green kitchen, marble bathroom finishes with matte black accents, and feature lighting through the two living areas. A wood fireplace anchors the main living area on cool nights, and the 70-inch smart TV is on hand for evenings in. Step out the back for a BBQ in the fully fenced yard, or settle around the firepit with a wine from the Orange region. Cook with fresh produce from the Orange Farmers' Market (second Saturday monthly in Robertson Park), or set up at the Bedroom 1 desk for a work-from-home day on the free WiFi.
THE LOCATION:
Dora Cottage sits on a quiet street in East Orange, around 7 minutes' walk from the CBD.
Coffee and brunch are close at hand, with Nile Street Cafe (49 Nile St) the nearest cafe in East Orange, and Village Bakehouse (208 Peisley St, 550m) and Bread & Honey (650m) a short walk further. Avido Ristorante (184 Peisley St, 550m) handles Italian, Bodhi Garden (400m) and Mr Sushi King (550m) cover Asian, and Hey Rosey (550m) is the small wine bar to know. The Hotel Orange (500m) and Parkview Hotel (281 Summer St, 600m) both serve pub-style meals. Ashcroft's SUPA IGA (600m) covers groceries, and Odeon 5 Cinemas (43 William St, 650m) and Pinot & Picasso (800m) are both walkable evening options.
For wine lovers, Highland Heritage Estate cellar door sits 3km east on the Mitchell Highway (8 min drive), Swinging Bridge Wines is around 10 minutes out, and Heifer Station Wines roughly 12. Lake Canobolas (12km) is a short drive west for a picnic, and the Duntryleague golf course sits just a couple of minutes from the CBD.
Guest Access:
Guests will have access to the entire home for the duration of their stay.
The Neighborhood:
Orange is a beautiful city distinguished by its gorgeous tree-lined streets, charming heritage houses and fresh local produce. Home to just over 40,000 people, this significant regional centre hosts an exciting calendar of events including festivals of food and wine, cycling, running, hot-air ballooning and poetry. Over 80 vineyards surround Orange producing distinguished cool-climate wines.

Other Things to Note:
