Our second stay was as delightful as our first. The cottage is a peaceful light-filled haven. We look forward to returning.

Super space, very private, great location: away from the hustle and bustle but also good access to stores. Etc. Clean and bright. Good water pressure for showers, firm bed, kitchen had most amenities. Definitely would book again.

Oasis in Victoria

Place is as described. It was a central location for the purposes of our trip and had all the amenities we required. Beautiful cottage.

A short ride into town with plenty to experience. Great cottage vibes. Whether you stay in or go out. Loft was fine but it may be difficult for someone elder

Property location wasn't the best for us as it was a 15–20 minute drive to anything we were interested in - this is of no fault to the owner as I should have researched the area better. The unit itself is well appointed. There is a steep set of stairs to access the property which may not be suitable for elderly or injured individuals. The loft (2nd bedroom) is not accessible for anyone over the age of 10 in my opinion.

This is a very sweet boutique like Accomodation. I think the only thing for me that wasn’t exactly clear was that the second bed was so close to the ceiling with a skylight which is right above mattress. My daughter slept comfortably as we had an eye patch to keep light out and help her to sleep in. Otherwise it was perfect. The sofa was extremely comfortable for 3 rd person who wasn’t able to climb ladder. Thx
