After reading some of the other reviews, I was a bit concerned that the noisy water pump would keep us awake at night. As it turns out, it wasn’t a problem. The pump only keeps switching on if the tap to the outdoor bath isn’t turned off, an instructions are provided in the guest compendium.
The location is beautiful and peaceful. Lots of bird life, visiting frogs and a resident water dragon.
The cottage is clean, stylish and cosy, the bed is very comfortable, and the kitchen is well equipped. It was nice that some basics like salt, pepper, oil, tea, coffee, a torch, matches, fire starters, paper towels, glad wrap etc. were provided.
There’s a two-burner gas cook top which can fit two smallish pots. Enough for some basic self-catering, but who wants to cook when there are so many great places to eat?
The drive into Byron is easy; just watch out for the changing speed limits and cameras.
