Astonishing architecture, amazing woodwork, and the most elegant, comfortable mansion-y home I've ever seen...morning, noon & nite birdsong, roaring deer, and Mary.

That we couldn't stay longer!

"Overall, enjoyed our stay in the “summer house”"

8.0

Breakfast was beautiful, homemade granola/toasted muesli was great

Location was difficult to find mainly due to poor signage at entrance to property, number and name of homestead was obscured by overgrown garden, did try and contact property, no reply. Resulted in stressful drive further up rocky road, vehicle almost got stuck in rocky crevices

Mary, the host, was so friendly and happy to help with any questions. Great place to stay and a great place to relax from the city and busy backpackers. Thanks a lot
