Very cosy and comfortable cottage that looked exactly as the photos. Hadn’t realised that the hosts stayed at the back of the property which impacted on our privacy a bit. Well located, short walk to town.

Thanks Trudie We advertise we are semi detached Caretakers if needed. Not like a motel or apartment, next to strangers. The accommodation is purpose built, to run close to motel style, however with a lot more character. Enjoy your journey to Adelaide with your four-legged friend. Cheers Sue
