We were very comfortable and warm in the quaint cottage. The beds were very comfortable, kitchen very well equipped and everything we needed was here. We loved the open fireplace and it was only a short stroll to Leura Mall which was a bonus being able to leave the car and walk everywhere. Bev was very good to communicate with. We would definitely stay again.

Quiet with lovely outlook.

The house is in a very quiet area, high up in the trees. Bev was super kind and helpful. We had a medium sized dog which was fine, but I don’t think it would be suitable for bigger dogs, or more than one dog as the garden is very small and is off the main bedroom. The bathroom is also off the main bedroom which was fine for us as it was just the two of us. It was nice and warm with aircon and also an open fire. We enjoyed our stay.
