  • "Green Gable is a great cosy place for a couple, with warm, welcoming touches on arrival. We had a few rainy days where we stayed indoors and the cottage was a really comfortable place to hibernate. We used & appreciated the suggested 1/2 day and 1 day driving tours provided by our hosts."

  • "A very relaxing place. Sitting on the deck or taking a walk to the beach it was all so easy going. Being so central it gave us plenty of opportunity to explore the island and still have time to relax."

  • "Green Gables will be remembered for the hospitality and helpfulness shown by its owners, Cindy and Geoff. All that you need will be provided in a home away from home atmosphere...even food for the wallabies and possums that come to the verandah to eat. Relax and enjoy."
