The Stables Cottage was the perfect place to relax and unwind for the weekend. So peaceful and the view from the deck both day and night was incredible. The cottage is beautifully appointed inside, everything you need, just bring food and drinks. John is a so warm and friendly, full of local knowledge, such a great host. We will definitely be back again!

A really lovely stay

We were using it as a base to attend a course nearby, so didn't get to enjoy it as much during the day as it deserves.It is a beautiful restful spot and great accommodation.

John and Sarah were very welcoming. The location was ideal for a relaxing time and the cottage fitted out in a style that suited its history. We enjoyed our week exploring the local area and chilling out on the veranfah overlooking the river.

We had a very relaxing stay. The cottage is set in a beautiful rural area and yet only 45 minutes from the lake which is an absolute must to visit. Our only comment is to use caution with the kitchen taps as the hot water is very hot.

Beautiful farmstay

My partner, sister and myself had an amazingly relaxing stay at the cottage. Our favourite spot was the back deck. There is beautiful view across the river to paddocks with cows grazing, and the sound of the river running below. Our thanks to John for a wonderful stay.
