If you want to get out of the city and have a quiet stay this is the place for you. We could only hear the fast water in the river to put us to sleep and the sheep talking to each other.

Clean and comfortable. Fenced area ideal for having a free run area for dog's. Right by the river and 2 reserves nearby for walking. Quiet and private.

We loved everything about the tiny house. It was so cosy and had everything we needed for our stay. We loved chatting to the geese every morning. We loved the outlook of the creek right there. It really was beautiful.
