Enjoy echoes of contented cows lowing while you savour the warm fire, watch television or tune out to some of your favourite CDs. Or sleep the morning away up on the original hayloft which now houses a great, big king size bed with a fluffy, feather doonah. The original barn doors are still in place for you to fling open and let the sun shine in or keep closed for an intimate atmosphere.

Timber, old tin, stained glass windows, an antique claw foot bath and wrought iron all add to the overall effect of beauty and comfort.

1 ½ bathrooms plus an additional 2 single beds make this a versatile retreat.

A full kitchen with
dishwasher allows you to choose between never leaving this little sanctuary or heading off to some of the fantastic local cafes and restaurants.

The quaint and rustic Milking Shed is open plan accommodation with 1 king bed in the hay loft and 2 single beds on the main floor. Luxury bed linen and towels are provided. The main floor also includes a full kitchen, lounge/TV, and eating area. There is one bathroom with a claw foot bath (with shower over the bath), and a second toilet and vanity area. The Milking Shed also has slow combustion fire and gas heating making it cosy and comfortable.

The Milking Shed was the most fun of all to transform.
The integrity of the structure was maintained as we enhanced its inherent ambience. Retaining the quirks and characters of its
chequered history, it was a labour of love.
