Fantastic place once we found it
The address supplied by by bookabach was around 32 kms away from the property up a one lane unsealed dirt road and lived in. Bookabach also charged us double the price of booking..com where the property is also listed. We eventually found the place by going to a local post office 11kms away. We had a great time and are $300 short!

The property is breathtaking & serene views, has everything you need and more.
My girls fell in love with this lovely & inviting home, it held a relaxing charming ambiance which enabled us to just be at one with nature. Breakfast on the patio ( nice fresh cows milk even) & listening to the sounds of birds while watching the mist slowly swirl up from the lush forest was truly amazing. The girls played games, laughed & clowned about on the lush lawns with their music playing. It was great to be out of town and earthing ourselves in this amazing valley that is so so peaceful yet alive with life itself. The rooms were lovely with a mix of old & new, loved the comfortable beds & soft luxurious touches that us women like, perfect touches with flowers I so loved. Couldn’t work the DVD player so we played board games & cards instead & the kitchen has plenty of space & cupboards. A great stove for cooking & a decent sized refrigerator for a families needs. Great bathroom area & outdoor bathroom even although we didn’t quite know how to use it. Fantastic holiday & we hope to be back and see it in the winter months, imagining a nice warm fire & hot cups of coffee/ tea which delicious scones!!!
