Cottage, Holiday house

The accommodation.....
The cottage has four bedrooms - the main has a King size bed, wood burning stove and doors opening onto the verandah. A second downstairs bedroom contains a queen sized bed and looks out over the garden. There are two upstairs bedrooms, one containing a double bed, with beautiful views from the attic balcony of the surrounding forest, and a single bedroom with views out over the garden.

The kitchen is fully equipped, with all cooking amenities supplied including a microwave and breadmaker. The living area has a DVD and TV (a selection of movies is supplied) and a wood burning stove to keep the warmth in on those cold winter evenings. We have also included a selection of games and books to settle down with on those rainy days.

The activities...
The garden is bordered by fruit trees, with an outlook over the surrounding hills. Choose from a woodburning or gas BBQ... enjoy lunch on the verandah. The cottage is visited by a wide variety of wildlife, such as kangaroos, wombats and possums, and a huge variety of birdlife.
