A great property in the beautiful countryside around Albany. Very quiet with nice walks close by and an easy drive into town. Greg left orange juice and items for great cooked breakfasts during our stay which weren't expected. Everything was as described but the windows could have been given a good dust and clean. We would happily stay here again.

Great quiet location

Great accomodation - just far enough out of town to be quiet and peaceful, but definitely enough not to be a bother. I really enjoyed this accomodation and would recommend to others.

The property was easy to find. Parking was simple and Greg met us on arrival. He'd even put some food into the fridge for us :). The heating was good, which was just as well as a cold snap hit and the heating was definitely needed. The bed was very warm and comfortable - such lovely soft sheets. The shower was quick to heat up and had a good water pressure. The property is on a road but traffic was not an issue. A lovely location.

Yes the host was welcoming, the plumbing in the bathroom needs to be looked at as the water pressure was nonexcistent and no hot water in kitchen had to boil kettle to do dishes. The cottage was clean and well stocked for breakfast.

Pretty stone cottage

We enjoyed a much-needed quiet comfortable stay. Used as home base for our day trips out and about, slept well every night. Walking distance to excellent antique store nearby and many attractions to visit in the region to keep you busy for days.

Lovely historical home to stay in with two lovely bedrooms. The owner left excellent supplies for breakfast.Only thing that was strange was access to the bathroom and kitchenette was through a bedroom. Would be a little off putting if there were two couples staying

Greg was very welcoming, he had arranged goodies in the fridge for our breakfast which was very much appreciated.Beds were comfortable and clean as was the property..The location was quite and peaceful. The only downside was that there was no hot water connected to the hand basin in the kitchen, but we managed. There was also a little damp patch on one wall in the living room which gave off a smell, but that was to be expected due to the age of the property.Thank you for letting us stay.

Beautiful cottage

The property is beautiful and the location is great. The layout is a little different with the kitchen and bathroom both accessed through the bedroom. Has a comfy lounge and TV/DVD player. The host was lovely, calling to check in and welcome us. A lovely breakfast was left which was greatly appreciated. Antique store is right next door and has a great range of items.

Ideally located out of town but within a 10 minute drive of anything you need. Easily accessible to local national parks. Parking available off the road. 2 beds, lounge area and patio with BBQ and dining setting. Comfortable beds, cozy kitchenette with basics and huge bathroom. Breakfast supplies were very much appreciated to enjoy when we wanted to cook them up. Note 1 bedroom is a thoroughfare to the bathroom so not recommended for light sleepers of those wanting privacy. Beautiful grounds and shady in the heat of summer. Windows open for a breeze, pedestal fan provided for hot days. Would definitely stay again.

The property could benefit from a good clean, cobwebbing throughout the interior and cooking equipment was not clean. The microwave was covered in food splatters from previous use and the kitchenette is very limiting in terms of space and location. The room configuration makes it inconvenient for more than two persons as the bathroom and kitchen are accessed off one of the bedrooms. On the plus side the beds were comfy and the location private and peaceful/good access to Albany town. Plan to eat out.

Area of shower wall thick with mould canceled the extra two nights accommodation and requested my money back. The mould had made me very ill. It was not only on the grout but on the slate tiles as well.

Perfect farm house stay

We loved our time as the Gate keepers! We enjoyed many a cup of tea on the verandah, watching the little birds. The brekkie provisions were most appreciated - yum! Greg was helpful when we needed him but left us to our own devices the rest of the time. In a word: perfect!
