A beautiful and tranquil location

A beautiful tranquil location and a pefect setting with the log fire to relax mid-Winter. The Cottage itself has a modern and very comfortable feel and warms up nicely with the fire place. A nice inclusion was there is seed provided to 'feed the local bird wildlife'. Thank you for a lovely stay.

We loved the Cottages for a quiet weekend away. We wanted somewhere close to the tourist attractions and it was just a short 3min drive to the local shops as well. The ones Sianne and Jarrad made us feel very welcome!

The cottages are beautiful in every way. Super clean and freshly renovated with stunning views of the grounds. Morning and afternoon brings array of bird life to your deck and a short stroll around the property will bring you into contact with an array of animals from mini cows to goats horses and even chickens and rabbits. The owners are very quick with communication and help with anythingvyou need. Will definitely be returning in the future and recommending to all our friends.....

It is in a lovely setting and the fireplace and provided wood make it cosy. It is quiet and private. However it was overpriced for a studio unit and you have to step into a spa bath for a shower. It is also lacking some basics such as bread board, egg cups, luggage racks. We didn’t use the carport as it looked like it would collapse on our car. Some gravel around the units would help stop the red mud.

On the positive side, the cottage was clean, with cooking equipment, cutlery, crockery etc. The bed was comfortable and Hot water came quickly and the nights were quiet. However the shower flow was miserly. If you didn't want to use the wood stove, heating was awkward. TV channel choice mediocre. Parking

Beware of the scam

Upon arrival, we discovered that although our payment had been made and the reference number for our guaranteed booking supplied, our room was not available to stay in, with the concierge even going as far as saying that "we have no place for you and your family". The concierge kept on repeating that it wasn't his fault, and continued to deflect the blame and not take responsibility for the situation. He was very unhelpful. It was a holiday from hell. Even now, we're still awaiting a response from hotel.com.
