Avalon Farmstay was more beautiful and peaceful than we could have anticipated. The owners were lovely and very accommodating.
The property was clean and provisioned with tea/coffee and breakfast supplies.
I couldn't recommend staying there more.
Excellent property and great communication. Best place for absolute quietness and quality. We wanted to climb the Rock at The Rock and this heritage cottage was the perfect location.
