Incredible Getaway

We had such a wonderful time. Such a relaxing stay. No internet reception but that added to the experience as it was so nice to relax, sip tea and play cards. The hosts are so lovely! We really enjoyed our stay and plan to return.

Staying in an almost 200 year old cottage was extremely relaxing. Cozy and comfortable with wonderfully calming sounds of the countryside. Our hosts Jane, Peter and Cooper were very accommodating. Cooper greeted each of us when we arrived, and sat with me while a read my book on the verandah. We sat and ate breakfast each morning with tiny birds fluttering around in the cottage garden just outside the kitchen windows. We visited the local area and ended our first day with a visit to the property’s cellar door for a wine tasting hosted by Peter. We all purchased some wine to enjoy that evening. I feel privileged to have been allowed to share such a beautiful property with friends. Thank you Peter, Jane and Cooper.

A stunning little cottage with a lovely touch of history

The cottage is very cosy, my favourite spot was in front of the huge open fire. Very comfortable lounges and everything you need for a for a relaxing weekend. Peter & Jane were great hosts and a bonus of some lovely wines to taste and purchase.

Lovely cottage and beautiful location

We loved our stay at the Settler’s cottage. It was like stepping back in time! The setting is beautiful and so quiet and relaxing. Peter and Jane were lovely hosts and so welcoming and it was great to hear about the history of the place. We also enjoyed our visits from Cooper the dog too, so gorgeous! It was a lovely to have the breakfast supplies provided too. We would definitely recommend the wine too! Definitely love to return - thanks for letting us stay!

Beautiful rustic cottage in beautiful area

Jane and Peter were very welcoming and generous (thanks for the delicious bottle of wine). The cottage is old and charming with a lovely garden and lots of citrus trees. We were permitted to pick the fruit and so had lovely fresh orange juice for breakfast along with the provided bacon, eggs and toast.The days we chose were probably the coldest days we have had so far this winter and so the cottage was cold. There was an open fire and firewood and a number of heaters as well as electric blankets which were very welcome! Unfortunately, the area had a power outage for a few hours on our first day, so we retreated to the pub,We would love to stay again but maybe not in mid-winter.

The Settlers Cottage

My wife and I enjoyed a relaxing weekend in the cottage. Cooper helped wear our 2 y/o Lab out. Location to town was only a 15 minute walk. Looking forward to trying it out in the Winter with a cosy fire.

Charming cottage

Peter made us feel very welcome. The cabin was very beautiful. We sat by the open fire drinking wine and playing scrabble. During the day we adventured into the village, having a drink and some wood fired pizzas at the local pub. It was a perfect relaxing weekend we needed with our pup. Definitely come back.
