Such gorgeous surroundings; a lovely fenced garden for our dogs plus plenty of walking on the property. The host was exceptional with her communication and amount of information regarding the local area. Everything you could think of was provided, including dog beds, dog towels, balls, lead, you name it. Seriously lovely little haven. We will def book again.

This was our second stay here in couple of years and we loved it as much as last time. The ambience of the cottage and the kindness of the host are the two main reasons for it.

Great property to stay at and being able to bring the pups was a bonus. They loved the open space to run and the fresh air as much as we did. Super relaxed by the whole experience

I needed some peace and quiet and that's what I got, just me and my dog. It rained all weekend, but this 'shed' is so well appointed with so many treats included, I just didn't want to leave! The property is lovely and I got a swim in before the rain started. Roslyn was so helpful throughout. Just a gorgeous stay and exactly what I needed.

Ros was really helpful throughout our 15 night stay. We were moving home and had two cars and a trailer with us and a place was found for each one without issue. Terrific place when travelling with dogs too. The yard to the Packing Shed was secure and the access to the full extent of the property throughout our stay to exercise our two dogs was very welcome. Would stay at the Packing Shed again. Thanks. Ros.

Quiet Getaway

Lovely quiet get away. Everything you need to stay as long as you want. Ideally situated with only a short drive to the beach/ bush walks/ local markets/ eats out or just chill by the fire pit! Thanks Ros, great place!
