Blackwood Cottage is a fairly large, beautifully built, comfortable house which is set in an interesting native garden. The kitchen, living room, bathroom and bedrooms are very well equipped and maintained and the entire effect is one of simple elegance and personal comfort. The towels and linens were very good indeed and the bed was so comfortable that I slept extremely well. One side of the house is a massive cathedral height window opening onto a vast deck. There is an inviting outdoor patio with a barbecue. I stayed for ten days. I had some work to do while I was there, and the peaceful comfort of the house made concentration and productivity easy, as did the excellent wireless internet connection. The owners were extremely welcoming and charming, and made me feel that I had made a personal visit to kind friends. I would love to go back to Blackwood Cottage one day.
