"We loved staying in Cathy’s place! It’s comfortable and cosy, has a great retro feel, and is in an attractive garden setting. A short walk into the village and not far to drive to other villages around, and to Hanging Rock and other attractions. Cathy was really helpful and we had some good chats! "
