This cottage is beautifully and thoughtfully decorated, and very well equipped. It is a great, cosy place to spend time, and also a good base for excursions to other places, from the coast, across to Hamilton (the nearest large town), and north to the Grampians. Penshurst has a good bakery and is very walkable, with spectacular views from Mount Rouse, which you can walk to from the cottage. Communications with Mel and Beau were excellent - they added lots of thoughtful touches as hosts.
