We really enjoyed our stay here. Tucked away on a hill in the bush, it felt private, peaceful, and perfect for switching off. The house was spotless, comfortable, and thoughtfully set up. It’s also very well located for easy day trips - the scenery up there is something else and well worth the trip! We’d happily stay again and would definitely recommend to anyone wanting a relaxing and peaceful getaway.
