    The cottage was beautifully secluded and the included breakfast food was fresh and clearly locally sourced.

Nathan and Courtney Webber
This peaceful little cottage is hidden away behind the trees in its own little world. We wanted to crest a restful and relaxing place for guests to stay. It has a lovely mezzanine bedroom- but please note the stairs are steep. No fireworks are allowed on the property at any time!
My family has owned the property for more than 40 years. My Mother planted a most of the trees in our paddocks. My wife Courtney and i live in the cottage for a few years before we had our first child. We loved the peacefulness of it. When we bought the property off Mum a few years ago it seened a shame to leave it empty so we gave it a makeover in the hope that others may enjoy its country charm. PLEASE NOTE THE STAIRS TO THE MEZZANINE ARE STEEP AND MAY NOT BE SUITABLE FOR EVERYONE. PLEASE CHECK PICTURES.
