Kangaroos, birds and close to forest trails. Loved the outdoor shower and shelves of books, great coffee and plenty of staples. My son loved hanging out in the trees and exploring with the hosts young daughter - and loved the free dogs and apples we were kindly gifted. Comfy beds and plenty of space.

Emily was very helpful and welcoming. The main bed is very comfortable, and cotton sheets a real bonus! It is fixed to the wall, which is slightly less convenient. We were unsure about the open bathroom, but actually enjoyed using it. Winter might be a bit different. ##### Sally B. Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jess P.

This beautiful little hideaway is everything I wanted and more, more spacious than in the photos, and so well equipped, there is a TV and DVD player (love it that my teenagers rummaged through the DVDs to find a film to watch, they thought it was half the fun! The fire was packed and ready to go when we got there, and the beds were so comfy. The bathroom was awesome! A hideaway and semi-outdoors. All facilities were available, a cooker, washing machine and dryer, all came with supplies, cooking was a breeze, and many essentials were already in the kitchen. My favourite was the main outside decking, two rocking chairs....very comfy!... with a coffee table, overlooking the nature-filled garden.This was such a lovely and well-needed break, thank you. ##### Jess P.

We had initially some concerns about the outdoor shower given the winter temperatures outside but we came to love it! Water was hot and plentiful and the atmosphere incomparable. We felt really at home, perhaps also because of the little library with a great selection of books. Hopefully we will be back. ##### Claudio P.
