This beautiful historic home was much more spacious than I was expecting. I don’t know why but I thought it was going to be about a third of its size, so that was a delightful surprise - as was the tree uplighting system that came on as we arrived (after dark) to light our way. This gentle but effective lighting system also comes on when you step outside at night, so it doesn’t feel spooky (okay maybe just the clay mask on one of the trees that we weren’t expecting!).
There are handmade bejewelled features all around the house that really add to its atmosphere - I really loved the beaded ‘cobweb’ hanging on the verandah. The verandah by the way wraps around three sides of the property - it’s really gorgeous.
The fireplace was wonderful, the recliners and bed all very comfy, and the surrounds are beautiful.
There are neighbours on both sides (one fenced, one not) so it’s not a *completely* secluded environment, but still private and very quiet. I would recommend this place for a relaxing stay and appreciate all the amenities and that we could bring our two dogs.
