"Wonderfully restorative week."

10.0

Amazing situation. Super-secluded in the forest. Really close to the Truman’s track. Walking distance to Pancake rocks and blowholes and lots of day walks. Beautiful house. Amazing forest views. Lots of light. Wonderful small kitchen. Great stargazing and birdwatching. Amazing regardless of the weather. Log burner kept us cosy in the rain, outdoor bath great in all weather. We felt very spoilt and would definitely stay again.

Nothing. We loved it all! We would take a yoga/exercise mat next time.
