We were surprised every morning that we had slept in and delighted as we opened the doors to the garden to the cutest blue wrens that flutter in excitement at a new visitor followed by visits from Rosie the kelpie. So close to town, we really enjoyed all the local restaurants and had some seriously good food and coffee at the gorgeous cafes, restaurants, wineries and chocolate factory. The gardens at Lakeside are so beautiful, you can see the love that has gone into tending it by Sally and Charles. We had fresh firewood daily and fires every night after exploring the many sites that are all really close, so location wise it is perfect. Every thing felt clean and homely, and your privacy is highly respected. It’s lovely.
