Cosy comfortable crib

Easy check-in to a lovely, warm crib/bach. It is spotlessly clean and well appointed with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The fenced yard was good for our dog. We can highly recommend.

Best Riverton Experience

We had a great experience with Heather's place! Many of the customers are looking for a sleepout considering its location, cleanliness and other positive things. Gladly, the place has it all. Overall, Heather is a text away for any concerns during our stay. The house is an absolute treat for leisure and business purpose visit with stunning views, and a few minutes walk away from the beach. I look forward for our next booking with the place in the future!

Not great. Terribly uncomfortable couch. No oven. Towel rail in bathroom literally taped together. Only had enough seating for three people but claimed to be set up for five people which made life very difficult when trying to feed three children at a dining table and no seat for myself! No space anywhere to put groceries or bags etc. To top it all off a couple hours before we had even checked out they were in the house doing laundry and trying to clean up etc. Just assumed we had left and didn’t bother to check.

Wonderful way to visit Riverton

An excellent property with just the right amount of everything; not overwhelming but plenty comfortable. Host Martha is a true gem; we were lucky enough to have a very pleasant visit with her. She helped us find all the hidden gems nearby (especially the outstanding fish & chips take-away nearby - yum yummmm!). This Bach is clean, comfortable, convenient to everything and an overall great place to stay. We will not stay anywhere else in the region. Thanks for a wonderful stay !!!!
