The cottage was clean and set up as requested, with sofa bed made up for sleeping. Janene was friendly and gave advice on where to eat locally. Beautiful view of lake and loved hearing birds in the morning. Kitchenette was well set up and porridge sachets a hit on cold morning.

Quiet & Clean

We had a lovely stay as two adults and our daughter. The property was exactly as advertised and suited our needs perfectly. Janene very generously gave us beautiful bananas from their crop. Sounds of nature were the only noises we heard which was lovely. Great stay!

A tranquil haven

We very much enjoyed our stay at Duck Heaven. The property is extremely comfortable, spacious and inviting, and it has everything needed for a short break. We wished there was more time to sit out in the lovely courtyard and enjoy the garden, but hopefully we will visit again and stay longer. Thank you Janene for the extra touches which make the studio so comfortable. We will highly recommend this property to anyone wishing to explore the region.

Duck Heaven is a lovely place to stay. Comfortable, cosy (in the best sense), clean. Property is well maintained.The aircon and ceiling fans were much appreciated on a hot and humid night. Our host was easy to communicate with and very helpful. Our only downside, we didn’t see a duck! But I have no doubt they would be on the pond, we just didn’t have time to explore.

Perfect for my needs

A lovely property. Perfect for a single person or couple. Only 7 minutes from family nearby. Clean and inviting. Bed was very comfortable however pillows were a bit soft. Easily cooled on hot day and very pleasant to be in. Sofa could do with replacing. Not good for arthritic knees!! Difficult to get out of. Bathroom was lovely. Would definitely book this accommodation again. Thank you for a great stay. Lovely outlook.
