We had a great stay at Frangipani Cottage. A very well appointed accomodation. Plenty of room for ourselves and 4 Adult children. Plenty of reading, DVD's, beautiful linen and a well stocked kitchen. Have rebooked for next year. Thank you Lyndall.

We had a delightful four day stay at Frangipani Cottage. We were sorry we had to spend so much time at a convention and so little enjoying the Cottage. The home was beautifully prepared and presented with lovely crisp linen on the beds, access to to plenty of reading material and thoughtfully supplied milk and cereal in the kitchen. My husband is sorry he didn't have time to watch the Loony Tunes DVD!!! It was so good to have our Pomeranium in a relaxed environment. We hope to stay again. Wade and Lorraine

We had a wonderful (if to short ) stay at frangipani cottage made all the more delightful by Lyndall & Nicks' hospitality . The cottage is very comfortable and one wants for nothing, it is ideally situated being close to shops and transport . We hope we can stay again. Myrna & Charles Neill

It was an absolute pleasure staying there. It made our life MUCH easier for my sister and myself, trying to cope with the 3 bubs at once! The accommodation was very 'homely' as well as very well stocked with items/appliances that we needed, so - again, thanks! We will definitely be contacting you if/when we come up to visit again...

What a wonderful holiday we had staying at Frangipani Cottage. We were made feel welcome, supported in every way, we were "AT HOME" there. Nothing was too much trouble and our dog Mr Ronson enjoyed his stay too. Thankyou Lyndall, Nick and Charlie for your hospitality and allowing us to call Frangipani Cottage home for our few weeks there. We will be back!
