Peaceful Escape

What an incredible place to stay for a romantic retreat. From the moment my partner and i drove down to the cottage, i knew this place would be perfect. The cottage was very comfortable with plenty of places to sit back and enjoy the hinterland views. Spacious room with a generous sized bathroom. A shame to leave but we will definitely be back!
