This was the best thing for our mental health and our marriage. So relaxing and private and quiet with the sounds of nature and bird song. Loved not hearing traffic and really feeling that difference between city and country. We enjoyed all the extra touches like the marshmallows and the hot water bottles. The outdoor bath was huge and incredible! It was awesome to be able to cook for ourselves and that fireplace was the best. The hosts were so friendly and informative and this was our best experience yet. Thank you so much

Absolutely outstanding stay! This house is stunning – modern, beautifully designed, and spotlessly clean. The bedding was fresh and super comfortable, ensuring a perfect night’s sleep. Every window framed a beautiful picture, adding to the charm of the place. The real highlight was the huge grassy area – an absolute paradise for kids! They had endless fun bouncing on the trampoline, playing soccer, and sliding under the trees. It truly felt like a home away from home – warm, inviting, and so well thought out. A flawless 10/10 stay – highly recommended!

It's very unassuming from the outside but inside is lovely. It was absolutely spotless. All the beds were comfortable and there's lots of space. Location is great. Raj was great to deal with and even posted my mum's glasses that she left ther.

Friendly staff. Great location, parking on site, although there isn't a guaranteed space. Very clean. The top floor room facing carpark was good for a couple of nights. Budget motel. Small room, but it is equipped for a short stay.
