Property listing and experience
The property was well appointed with a separate bedroom off the lounge, kitchen, two bedrooms and bathroom. What was not clear with the listing is that the property owners reside in the main home and rent out the "flat" which is attached. A downside to the separate bedroom was that there was no on-suite which required a "mid-night" walk outside to enter the main "flat". The accomodation was well appointed and clean. The property owners were very accommodating and friendly permitting early access prior to the allocated time. Lavish gardens to walk around beautifully maintained.

Hi Vicki, I'm so glad you enjoyed your stay with us and trust you had a safe trip home :)
The accommodation is the original farmhouse with 2 bedrooms, and a third bedroom (part of a separate wing) for the 5th & 6th guests is accessed across a covered private BBQ patio area. Only 3 metres away undercover from the main farmhouse. This room is great for couples or grandparents (like Vicki who chose it for her stay) who want a little bit more privacy and separation.

Beautiful Peaceful Retreat
The accomodation is spacious and restful, with beautiful grounds and a peaceful, quiet setting well back from any traffic. Even though it rained it was still delightful.

Wonderful place to stay
A peaceful, secluded retreat in amazing setting but still close enough to allow easy access to local amenities and surrounding attractions. Thankyou to the owners for their foresight in providing such charming accommodation.
