Perfect for a quiet and serene, self-contained country stay. Plenty of chooks, rabbits, galahs and very respectful owners (left us to ourselves). The unit is very tidy with tasteful finishes and everything we needed, including a great set of DVDs. Fresh eggs were a very welcome flourish.

Great stay
We stayed for 5 days. It is a small place but with great function and really lovely outdoor areas. The hosts are lovely and everything was really clean. I didn’t feel I had to clean anything before We used it. It’s wonderfully dog proof which is good cause the chickens are free range a lot of the time. Which were wonderful. By

What a fantastic place for an overnight stopover
After travelling for many hours including delays with car issues we arrived quite late and were greeted warmly by Megan. The cottage was beautifully furnished with a lovely outdoor area that was completely enclosed - perfect for our little dog. The inclusion of breakfast provisions was a nice touch. Will definitely be back next year.

Extremely stressful
I was in town for a wedding, we were unable to find the property, contact the hosts, and had no way of communicating other than being sent to a website to send an online message. We had to urgently find a hotel to stay at so we didn't miss the wedding. I would highly, highly recommend for these people if this was real to send contact information let alone an address to find the property in the first place. I would like to be refunded as we never even stayed there and could have potentially missed the wedding if we had brought our dog with us. I had my information when I booked so I believe I should have been contacted.
