Beautiful. Tranquil. Relaxing. Wish I could stay longer. If or when I head back to Hamilton i will go here.
We couldn’t get the electric stove element to work at breakfast time.

Multiple bed options, clean and tidy space with fresh milk, towels and bedding. Small table for enjoying the surrounding nature scenery. A spectacular sunset surrounded the pine tree. Really reasonable checkout times. Owners were above, very friendly, helped us with our luggage and made us feel very welcomed on arrival.
Honestly… it was really fantastic I can’t fault it.

Amazing space, quiet and plenty of room for our family. Hosts were friendly and helpful. The space is larger than the pictures show.

Quiet, clean and modern, had a lot of extras. It's a renovation of someone's house but done really well.we didn't interact with the owners as the emailed instructions were clear, the space was quiet and comfortable. We would choose again for a short stay. A Midweek booking was incredibly cheap for what was offered

This property was better than we expected and very good value for money. The host was very friendly and helpful with arrangements before check-in. Instructions to access were clear and timely. The unit was private, very clean and tidy with everything we needed. Shower was hot, and there was a TV with Netflix.
The beds were quite hard (personal preference) and the pillows were a bit flat. A few spares would have been good. There was an extra blanket if needed.

Much nicer and larger than the photos show. Very clean and in good repair. Nice touches like the little packets of cereals & milk - my kids loved this. Lovely view of the bush. Excellent pricing. Also very friendly cat.
Would be great to have on hand some spare sheets & pillowcase in the cupboard to make up the sofa bed. Also would be great to have a tea towel to dry the dishes. Smaller bed was quite firm.

The hosts are kind and attentive, and the place has a peaceful charm that makes it easy to relax. A special mention goes to Charlie, the house cat, who added an extra touch of comfort and friendliness to our visit.

The terrace was so amazing that literally you would like to stay longer during the day, just sitting there and watching the beautiful views. The owners are very friendly and welcoming.

Very friendly hosts. Location was fantastic. Close to town but where the property was situated you'd think you were in your own quite oasis in the middle of a forest. Beautiful atmoshere & surroundings. Little extras provided like noodles, porridge, muslei etc. Free WiFi & very friendly dog & cat were a plus.
Our biggest gripe was how difficult it was to trundle our luggage down the side of the house, round the back, & then manoeuvre our large bags down the steps to our accomadation. In the dark it was quite difficult to see walking around the back of the house. I think this problem with the access depends on your age. If my young, fit, strong sons stayed here they would have given 10/10 as they could have dashed down the stairs with ease & really don't notice the little things mentioned further on. Quite cold, would benifit with a larger heater. The bed was one of hardest beds I've ever slept on but what I found really strange was the bed had no top sheet!!! After asking the host we were told they never supplied a top sheet (I think this might be custom in their country) but they kindly provided us one, just a pity it was only a single size. Overall all we found the bedding dissapointing. If the hosts upgraded the bedding we would have given this a 9/10😊 overall though quite & reasonably priced accomadation handy to town.
P. S/ Alison contacted me a couple of days after we left saying she had found one of my hearing aids. She kindly posted it back to me which was very nice of her to go that extra mile. For this I upgraded them to 8/10 as not every host would do this.

The room is at the back of the house, facing the spectacular view of the gully. The view itself worths the stay, but the room is beautiful and well equipped with necessary items to make your stay pleasant and pampered. The host is nice and kind, came to say hello and to see if we need anything else. Moreover, it would be a heaven for cat lovers, with a beautiful and friendly black and white cat at the front, and two dark cats moving around (but not come close to you or your room)

Flawless! The room opens up to the gully out back, giving the illusion of being surrounded by nature even though positioned squarely in the city, near the stadium. Host (and cat) were there to greet us, and even went the extra mile and helped bring down a bag. Could not have had a better stay.

Unusual location with tropical forest/ woods in front. Lovely Couple with Phil a Gentleman , he carried our heavy luggage to and from our car to the room. ( 3 flights of steps). Not really for old people these steps. But the place very nice Super cuddly warm bed ( (13 C) at night, brilliant Hot shower. we really enjoyed our 3 nights there.
We recommend.

It was incredible! Literally on the doorstep of nature and it feels like a cozy little nest. I loved how clean and comfy it was, and there were a lot of books and games available for your entertainment. It was awesome!!
There was nothing I didn't like about this place. Alison was always responsive towards my messages and was such a sweetheart! Absolutely adored everyone and the location! Definitely thinking of going back!

Excellente nuit dans ce loft au calme au bord de la forêt. On aurait aimé y rester plus d’une nuit. Rapport qualité prix imbattable !
Pas fan du chat qui tente d’entrer dans le logement à la moindre occasion…

כמעט כלום.מיטות נוחות דירה מאובזרת בצורה חסרה הושארו כמה פריטי אוכל יבש להכנה
נאמר לי שהדירה נמצאת בקומת הבסיס.האמת שיש לרדת 14 מדרגות אליה והיא נמצאת מתחת לדירת הבעלים שנשמע ממנה רעש לא נעים של כלי נגינה.
חדר האמבטיה והשירותים לא היו נקיים.
סה״כ הדירה לא נעימה כלל.
הדבר היחיד שאפשר לציין הוא המחיר הנמוך
