This is a great house, impeccably decorated with everything you could need for a very comfortable stay, including the log fire and electric blankets on every bed. Communication with the host couldn't have been better.

What a wonderful place. The house was very clean & the dogs & family just loved the back yard. I found myself just relaxing on the swing under the tree with the cool breeze. I really loved the extras in the pantry & kitchen but the bottle of wine as a gift was a very nice touch. Thank you for making us feel so welcome.

We had an amazing weekend at this beautiful property. Whomever is responsible for the styling has done a wonderful job! It was warm, welcoming and absolutely perfect for our group (2 families with kids 12, 12, 10, 8) and perfectly located in a quiet spot accessible to town and surrounding wineries. Communication with the host was outstanding. We would stay again in a heartbeat!

Thank you! Looking forward to having you stay with us again :)
I stayed with a few friends for 3 nights and we all loved our time here. It’s a bright, airy space with a big backyard and patio for outdoor dining, BBQs and a fire pit. The beds are so comfy - I rarely sleep as well on hols as I do in my own bed but we all agreed that these beds are amazing! The spacious kitchen is well supplied and electric blankets, a fireplace in the living room and reverse cycle air condition means that this place would be suitable at any time of the year. The house is in a quiet location a couple of km out of town, about a 20 min walk or a couple of mins’ drive. I understand that this is a new listing and I suspect it will be very popular, it’s certainly highly recommended by us!
