"If you’re after peace and quiet and a great nights sleep, this is the best place to stay. Beautiful."

9.0

We loved everything about the tiny house. It was so cosy and had everything we needed for our stay. We loved chatting to the geese every morning. We loved the outlook of the creek right there. It really was beautiful.

No fly screens to keep the sand flies out and flies when cooking. No dishwash rack. No soap. No shower caddy, so having to bend down. No recycle bin. The property is a drive for supplies, so make sure you’re stocked up.

"Beautiful setting. Everything you need."

9.0

The setting was beautiful. Clean and tidy little house. Had everything we needed. Close to town by car, but still in a rural area. The shower has great pressure. Bed is a little on the soft side but that's ok.

Could have done with an open shelf in the bathroom. I hope you get some more sleep soon. He looked lonely 🐑🐏
