It’s a very spacious, quite and clean place. The surrounding area is beautiful. We stayed for two nights and are really impressed by what we got. It has all the amenities we need, the host provided plenty of tea, coffee, snacks, fruits, and a loaf of bread with a variety of jam and spread. We would definitely go back if we need to stay in that area again.

This is a beautiful place to stay. Very clean, quiet and has everything you could need. Very spacious for a two bedroom cottage. The hosts were lovely, gave us space but were available if we needed them. Their attention to detail and country charm was spot on. Would definitely stay here again.

We had a very relaxing stay at Kookaburra cottage. The cottage really lived up to its name with lots of Kookaburras to watch when chilling out on the balcony. Beautiful location with lots of trees, birds and green lawns all around. The extras of fruit, bread and spreads provided by the hosts on arrival were very much appreciated. Thanks for the lovely stay!
