Warm welcoming unique abode

Beautiful garden setting, with a traditional timber yurt cleverly constructed to seamlessly provide bathroom facilities and hanging space. The gazebo and sitting areas alongside the yurt were gorgeous and added to the sense of privacy. The owner was welcoming. We were here in winter in chilly conditions but the yurt was well equipped with heating and we were perfectly comfortable.

Perfect little gateway home

The property is well managed and the photos exactly justify what proper looks like. The garden is managed perfectly, and the property is highly recommended if you want to have a little time off to cool off your mind.

Our first time in a yurt

Loved the property, tucked away off the road in a beautiful rose garden. The roses were in full bloom and magnificent. The yurt itself was a masterpiece in craftsmanship and we loved the rustic feel of it and enjoyed our visit.

Colin’s place is warm and cozy at the back of his beautiful garden. The place is neat and tidy and the area is lovely to walk around with established trees and beautiful homes. Colin went above and beyond to make our stay easy and relaxing.

A gorgeous Yurt with everything we needed

Our hosts were extremely accomodating when a late flight caused us to turn up extremely late. The yurt was clean, warm and had everything we needed. It was comfortable and homely. We would stay here again happily!

Ok for 1-2 nights

This is is a unique place- a Yert. We enjoyed it but two nights would be max for us. Just one large room with the shower/toilet through a very low door- watch your head! However we enjoyed our stay.

Disappointing

The photos give a much better impression than the property deserves. Everything is just “made do” and nothing was outstanding. The doubts started with finding the address for the property and only deteriorated from that. It was a very cold place too.

Cosy little cottage

I really enjoyed my stay in this beautiful spot, the cottage had all I could ask for, in a lovely garden and the hosts were friendly and helpful. It is a little further out of town, I enjoyed the walk but some might prefer to travel by car. I was there for parkrun after all, which was only another 1km up the road in the Botanic gardens, so I was perfectly placed 🙂
