    The location was beautiful and tranquil, with farm animals and heaps of wildlife. The cabin was so beautiful in design, all the stunning timber work. The hosts Tania and Phillip were so lovely and welcoming 😊 our fire was going when we arrived, so lovely and warm. Definately a place to revisit!

    We had no phone reception or data available. There is also no tv, which is fine but be prepared. Pack a book, cards, puzzles etc. It’s nice to disconnect sometimes.

    It was cute comfortable and very cosy. Looking out across the beautiful green paddocks with the cows and horses was lovely.

    Excellent hosts, the most ideal setting you could hope for, great simple facilities - everything you could need. No television in the cabin = a positive. The view and surrounding animal life is captivating enough. Well stocked with wood for the fire. Thanks Tania and Phillip.

    I couldn’t fault the accommodation at all, the only thing I’d say is we wish we stayed more than 1 night! Beds were comfy, place was clean and hosts were beyond welcoming. If you’re after a peaceful retreat this place is for you, perfect location for some peace and quiet. Big thumbs up 👍🏼

    Everything is super clean and tidy. And not just the hut, the whole farm is well organised. It's easy to see that these are super organised, talented and hard working people. What they've created is very impressive.

    It’s a small but super comfy cabin with gorgeous views and everything we need. I love the fireplace the most. We had the most calm and perfect night in our trip. Regretting we didn’t book two nights here when the moment we walked into the house.

    Poor phone reception so not ideal for a work trip but perfect for a ‘switch off and relax break’!

    Loved the peace and tranquility and no distractions. Watching the burning logs in the fire, the water feature in the bathroom, the extremely comfortable bed and the gorgeous spa bath looking out at the mountain vista.
