"Beautiful country setting"

10.0

This was our second stay and thoroughly enjoyed it again. The cottage is large and light filled. The decor is top quality and it is so peaceful and secluded with sheep as your neighbor. The beds are comfortable and the bath has a great shower. Everything one could want for a relaxing time. If you forgot adult beverages, good wines and beer are available for purchase. It is only about a 4 minute drive on busy Hwy 1 but so much nicer than being in town. Michelle the host is wonderful and soon becomes a cherished friend.

Just would have liked some baking measuring spoons.

"Wish we’d stayed longer, a place of relaxed perfection."

10.0

Totally exceptional. We’re on a trip where we’ve stayed in 7 properties. This was the best. Trees and lawns around, longer grass areas to offer contact with nature, lots of birds and birdsong, amenities excellent. Michelle lovely.

Nothing.

"Our stay was perfect. Great accommodation."

9.0

Loved the location. It was set amongst lovely gardens and paddocks. The decor was country Hampton. The cottage has large bedrooms beautifully decorated with a cosy lounge. Lovely to sit and look out the windows at the sheep and lovely green grass.
