A beautiful property in a great location. Jesse was very responsive and fixed anything we needed. There was even a high chair and cot provided for our toddler. We would stay here again!

This house is amazing. It is in a really pretty setting, on a bit of land, sweet garden beds, all paved around the house and lots of room for parking. The wood shed was well stocked and the open fire in one of the lounge rooms was super cozy. The central heating provided comfort in every room, as it was cold outside. The bathrooms have heated towel rails and are all appointed with quality fittings, and luxurious decor. The 2 larger bedrooms were huge and the bedroom with the single bed was spacious as well. The kitchen had everything we needed. We cooked a meatball casserole in the AGA, which was a really nice experience. The Mill is nearby, approx 1km, and it has great pizzas, a brewery, winery, coffee shop and one of the best vintage secondhand markets I've ever seen. The township is only a few kms away as well, lots of lovely little shops to wander around. The host, Jesse, is so professional, responsive and lovely to deal with, check in was easy and exiting was also easy. I want to stay here again, for longer. It is such a relaxing house, and setting
