Great, quiet little getaway
I booked this for two nights and was a great experience for me, my partner and small dog.
Location was just past the main street of town so if you needed anything it was close by. The accommodation itself was further back on the property, but it still felt like you had the place to yourself.
All essential amenities were provided and the place was very clean. The owners have done good work in the landscaping out the front of the place and was perfect for morning sun as well as evenings by the fire.
Thanks for a great stay
