My wife and I recently stayed to celebrate our wedding anniversary, and we were so delighted by the thoughtful card and gift from Sabina upon our arrival.We absolutely loved our stay and found it to be a wonderful, quiet getaway. The house was very cozy, comfortable, and clean, and the location was great—close to local shops, attractions, and eateries.We would highly recommend this property to others planning a visit to the region.

The photos dont do this property justice. Love the way that this house has been decorated. Theres alot of small touches. Gardens are beautiful. Its nice to sit outside on the grass or bar stools outside and admire the view. Four Square, Two Thumbs Brewery and Fish and Chips are only a 2 min walk away. If you want the best coffee, Soul Coffee is only a 2 to 5 min drive away, 25 min walk. The girls there all beautiful human beings. Thank you Bina. You are great to deal with and it was kind of you to offer a later checkout. Enjoy your stay.

Loved the welcome tray and note. Beautiful surroundings even on the rainy days. Great to light the fire and hunker down. A cosy retreat for getting away from it all.
