Sam
Set in historically beautiful Clunes, this gorgeous shop front cottage, Madam Saddler dates from c1853 and has been tastefully restored and decorated with old world charm yet all the modern conveniences to make your stay as comfortable, relaxing and memorable as possible. It took its present owners over 15 years to collect and restore 1850's building materials, and a further 4 years to personally craft this luxurious 1* bedroom shop cottage. A great effort to detail this little cottage, and is a perfect place where guests can be spoilt. “Beautiful”, “gorgeous”, “charming”, “comfortable”, “luxurious” are all words which have been overused for a long time, but somehow for Madam Saddler, they don’t seem to be enough!
