Lovely accommodation in great location

Beautifully kept property within a very short stroll to the main drag, with a lovely woodburner, perfect on a very chilly weekend. Also appreciated the ample supply of teabags and the welcoming bottle of wine. Fully fenced yard offered great sniffing opportunities for the hound.

Fabulous stay...clean cosy home. Loved the wood fire place and spa bath. Landscape garden and safe doggy place was superb. Our hosts were accessible which was fantastic. Lovely and friendly.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The location is an easy walk to all the eateries and township Good retreat for a short stay. The spa bath was great. The garden area was lovely.

Great for Couples

The propery is extremely well located in a quiet area close to the main shopping street. It was very suitable for the two dogs we brought with us. The backyard if well enclosed with a reasonably substantial area for them to roam in. There is an undercover area also where they can go in the event of very hot weather or storms. Quite a few 'pet friendly' places don't have those. The gardens were also particually attracitve and a great place to sit. The unit itself was very clean and comfortable. It is accurately shown on the website.
