Our family of four really enjoyed our stay at Sue’s cottage. The outlook was outstanding and the Cottage itself is well stocked and very clean and comfortable

I could gaze out the living room doors at the beautiful garden with the butterflies flying around all day, so relaxing

Judy,our host,greeted us at the door.Friendly and gracious she led us through our accommodation and we felt very much at home.Beautiful 2 bedroom home in a gorgeous garden setting.Unfortunately we were only staying overnight but it is close to a beautiful lake and bushland and it would have been nice to stay a couple of more days.I would wholeheartedly recommend Watershed to family and friends plus it's not too far from Hobbiton.Thank you Judy.

This was a beautiful property.I can't say enough about how beautiful it is.We have every intention of returning.

If you want to try something different then the usual box, bed and window, this is it. Our family of 5 are sure glad it was on our list as it was a stay to remember. The Host is as good as they get, polite, helpful, friendly and welcoming and even had some supplies to make a pretty good breakfast in the morning. The bus is equipped with everything needed including bathroom facilities and a fully utensiled kitchen. Beds were comfy and clean. If you've got spare time there's a great quiet spot to chill down near the river.

We enjoyed our stay very much in this lovely comfortable house.

Our stay in Nov 2023 was lovely, the house was perfect for our family of 5, the views were amazing, everything we needed and the owners were very helpful. Can't wait to book again in the coming years.
