About the host
Hosted by Stack or Helen Stevens
We are both passionate about tourism and believe that word of mouth is far superior than any print matter and so we strive to make your stay as pleasurable as possible. we are both new to the area although have been here 20 years!! having owned and operated a tour company as well as a number of years running backpackers we can give you good insight where to visit,
Why they chose this property
It was run down and unloved and we could see the potential, we also stayed in a couple of houses and decided that we would cater for the disabled and family's in an honest way and not just pretend what we had. we also ran a very successful backpackers hostel for a number of years and both been in hospitality most of our lives
What makes this property unique
It is set on 5 acres in a semi rural setting with no neighbors. You are far enough away from the town and yet so close ,there is lots of room for kids to be kids and make lots of noise and play outside, the cottage is 115 years old so has lots of old world charm and is not pretentious, is comfortable with plenty of activities for everyone
