Beautiful spot
Loved this place. My partner and I stayed here for a month when we were in town with work and would happily have stayed longer. It's a great house in a beautiful spot, very peaceful and private. The house has everything you need and the hosts were very responsive whilst also leaving us to ourselves. There's great walking tracks on the doorstep and overall it is fantastic place to relax and spend time. Hope to be back again!

Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay! We were on the tale end of a seven week trip and booked your place to have a place to wind down. It was such a treat to be in nature yet close to amenities and the City for a little site seeing.
