We really enjoyed our stay. It was perfect for our needs. Everything had been thought of to make our stay comfortable and hassle free. It was very interesting to read about the cottage's history too.

Loved the old fashioned feel of the house and yard. Everything was supplied - even board games, books, and DVDs. Didn't want for anything. Lovely wood heater and a well stocked wood shed. The main bedroom had a beautiful king size bed - the most comfortable bed we have ever slept in. A totally awesome place!

What a find! The cottage was perfect for our family and excellent value. It has a nice rural outlook and the kids loved seeing the animals and birds. We arrived to find a wallaby sitting right in the backyard! There were so many little touches that made it homely, such as the tea and coffee pot cosies and such a good choice of delicious tea and coffee. The complimentary crabtree and evelen gift was a nice surprise. The king bed was very comfortable and the bath was heavenly. Thanks Heather and Greg for a great stay.
