Michael's place was a real sanctuary - seeing the result of the time and effort that he has put into the beautiful gardens alone was worth the visit! Such stunning surrounds - and it's still evolving! Michael was a wonderfully warm and friendly host, and his knowledge and passion for the local area, its history, and environmentally sustainable lifestyles was both amazing and inspiring - we learnt so much from him during our stay. Morning coffee on the deck overlooking both the forest and the ocean was truly a treat.
