A quiet little ‘granny flat’ overlooking the lake. Very comfortable, with simple compact kitchen incorporated. As indicated in a notice, wifi was best in kitchen area: sometimes no connection in the contiguous bedroom section. Malcolm and Penny very welcoming: Malcolm providing great local advice.

Owners live next door so check in was easy. Basic but adequate kitchen facilities. We were able to park with a trailer in the driveway. Fabulous, relaxing view. Lovely little sunny sitting spot, by the water, out the front.

A Tranquil Piece of Paradise

What a beautiful place set amongst green lawns and beautiful gardens.We stayed for three nights over the Easter weekend. We were welcomed by friendly and helpful hosts. The place was very comfortable, clean and homely. The kitchenette contained all the necessary requirements for cooking meals.
