If you're looking for a high country experience with sweeping mountain views, rich forests and working farms all around, then this is for you. We arrived in the dark and our delight the next morning when we looked out the window was great. Carol was a great host who kept in touch but didn't intrude. The welcome pack of fresh eggs and other goodies in the fridge was much appreciated. Balconies back and front give you the option to admire the views or soak up the sun. The kitchen is well stocked which is important as you're a long way from any supermarkets. And a coffee machine was a godsend as the nearest espresso machine is far, far away.
