Guest Reviews

"Eclectic and a trip down memory lane. This gorgeous cottage will take you on a journey of yesteryear. It’s a beautiful location by the river with birds and sheep to watch while having a cuppa on the verandah. The inside is laid out beautifully with a mix of the old and new, tastefully decorated. Jen is an amazing host, very responsive and I highly recommend staying here, you will love it."

"Perfect place to getaway! We saw a platypus in the river within 30 mins of arriving and we woke up thinking we definitely should have stayed longer. We will be back!"

"Jen's place is charming, great place to just breathe and calm down, great shop near by for coffee, sandwich hot food, dont just stop here, stay, interact, walk, see the wildlife, go on the back roads, light the fire at night, look at the stars, see the old pud and buildings, you will enjoy as we had the most amazing time, by slowing down, seeing not rushing, take your time Eagles owls, wombats to find🙂"
